Exmar's Dutch deal
March 18 (LNGJ) - Belgian shipping line Exmar has reached an agreement for a five-year charter deal with Dutch utility Gasunie for its 600 million standard cubic feet per day regasification barge, the “FSRU S188”. The vessel will be in operation by the end of the third quarter of 2022. “Gasunie will use the ‘FSRU S188’ as a floating LNG import terminal at Eemshaven in Groningen, the Netherlands, in view of the geopolitical developments currently going on in Europe and the increased emphasis of governments on the security of energy supply,” said a statement.
“We are happy to reach this agreement with Gasunie,” said Nicolas Saverys, Executive Chairman of Antwerp-based Exmar. “It proves the possibilities of our floating infrastructure solutions as a quick-to-market and competitive solution for securing energy supply,” added Saverys.
