LNG

Deutsche ReGas has been granted permanent to operate its Deutsche Ostsee LNG terminal at Mukran port on Rügen in the Baltic Sea, allowing the use of onboard gas generators on two floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs).

Deutsche Regas is auctioning 12 slots at its Mukran FSRU on the island of Rügen on Tuesday, 21 October 2025. The unloading and regas slots will be offered evenly throughout the year.

Deutsche ReGas, the only privately-financed LNG terminal operator in Germany, has entered agreements with BASF and Equinor for the utilisation of LNG regas capacity at Deutsche Ostsee Energie-Terminal in Mukran. Though commercial terms were not disclosed, the agreements highlight the role of the Mukran terminal in diversified energy supply.

Deutsche ReGas has succeeded in gaining permission to restart reloading LNG tankers at its Mukran floating regas and storage unit (FSRU). The environmental ministry had forbidden the practice in the autumn, arguing reloading was not covered by the terminal’s original permit.
