Floating production storage and offloading

Gas producer Energean is looking at options to increase the capacity of its floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel off Israel to 12 billion cubic meters (bcm) a year, CEO Mathios Rigas told Reuters on Thursday.

Two Floating Storage and Regasification Units (FSRU) for Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) were chartered from George Prokopiou's Dynagas Ltd to the German Uniper, whose total capacity is equivalent to 30% of Russian gas imports to Germany.

With this move, Uniper comes to diversify and strengthen the security of gas supply in Germany, according to a statement from the German company.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis will speak at noon at the ceremony for the inauguration of the implementation of the project of the terminal of the Independent Natural Gas System (ASFA) of Alexandroupolis.

Germany has released nearly 3 billion euros ($3.2 billion) to acquire floating liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminals, as it seeks to move away from dependence on Russian gas.

The FSRU with a capacity of 153.500 sq.m. LNG will be connected to the national natural gas network of Greece with a 28 km long pipeline

The market test phase for the project of FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit), of DIORIGA GAS A.E., of the Motor Oil group, begins.

With 110 million cubic meters of storage and 28 million cubic meters of gasification capacity, Turkey's first publicly owned floating liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage and gasification vessel (FSRU) will add significant flexibility to Turkey's energy supply chain security, according to Energy and Natural Resources Minister Fatih Dönmez.

Turkey's first floating LNG storage and gasification vessel (FSRU) "Ertuğrul Gazi" is registered to the Turkish International Ship Registry on March 3.

According to the social media account of the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure's General Directorate of Maritime Affairs, Ertuğrul Gazi flew the Turkish flag.

Speaking on Thursday to the chief executive officer of Public Gas Corporation (DEPA), Konstantinos Xifaras, US Ambassador in Athens Geoffrey Pyatt expressed Washington's warm support for the project of the Floating Storage Regasification Unit (FSRU) off Alexandroupoli in northeastern Greece, as it assists the US in its strategy for the diversification of Europe's energy sources.

Three joint ventures have been selected by Cyprus in the first stage of a tender to provide a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) to import liquefied natural gas (LNG).
The first joint venture is led by China Petroleum Pipeline Engineering, Natural Gas Public Company of Cyprus (DEFA) said on its website.
