June 25 (LNGJ) - German LNG Terminal, the company developing an onshore facility at Brunsbuettel on the Elbe River south of Hamburg, has selected a Spanish-German joint venture comprising Cobra Instalaciones y Servicios SA and Sener Ingeniería y Sistemas SA of Spain and Bonn-based TGE Gas Engineering GmbH for the final phase of the engineering, procurement and construction contract award.

   “This final phase will consist of a comprehensive value-improvement exercise and detailed price actualization to make the project more cost efficient to conclude a binding EPC contract by the end of 2020,” said German LNG Terminal. “It is expected that the detailed design and engineering work, necessary to develop purchase orders of long-lead products, can then be started soon after the finalization of the contract,” it added. German LNG Terminal is a joint venture involving Dutch gas network company Gasunie BV, global Dutch storage company Royal Vopak and Germany’s Oiltanking GmbH, a subsidiary of Marquard & Bahls AG of Hamburg.

German LNG Terminal, the joint venture company developing the European nation’s first regasification facility at Brunsbuettel on the Elbe River near the port of Hamburg, has chosen four groups to compete for the engineering, procurement and construction contract.
