Sept 13 (LNG) - The 173,400 cubic metres capacity carrier “Maran Gas Chios” was scheduled to berth on September 13 at the French LNG import terminal at the Channel port of Dunkirk with a cargo from the Caribbean nation of Trinidad & Tobago, according to shipping data. The vessel lifted the cargo on September 2 from the Point Fortin facility in Trinidad.
The cargo was arriving in France as the European benchmark Dutch Title Transfer Facility (TTF) wholesale gas price was declining from more elevated levels to around the equivalent of $56.55 per million British thermal units. The spot day-ahead French PEG market price on the European Energy Exchange was at around the equivalent of $40.05 per MMBtu.
