The plant, considered a top-tier model in FSRUs, will be connected to the transmission network to cover up to 70% of eastern gas market demand and meet consumption peaks.
The FSRU can store 170 000 m3 of LNG and the terminal has a regasification capacity of 130 Pj/yr, equivalent to a maximum of 3.61 billion m3/yr. The aim of this strategic infrastructure is to support domestic gas supply, strengthen security of supply, and support the country’s energy transition.
The project entrusted to Reganosa Servicios by Squadron Energy involves the comprehensive management of the complex’s onshore facilities: measuring sta-tion, control room, auxiliary systems and equipment associated with docking and gas transfer. The terminal is connected by a 12-km, 18-in. diameter gas pipeline.
This appointment firms up the Port Kembla regasification terminal as the best solution to the looming gas shortage on Australia’s east coast.
