Tanks and Terminals,
Deutsche ReGas has announced that the FSRU Energos Power reached the industrial port of Mukran in Germany and moored at berth 12 on 24 February, the operator said, adding that the vessel was carrying liquid gas from Norway.
The trial has followed on from the authorities’ approval for the early commencement of operations, and as per Deutsche ReGas, it aimed to test all land and ship systems and put them into operation.
Energos Power was the first of two regasification vessels planned for the Mukran terminal. Deutsche ReGas revealed that the second vessel, Neptune, located in the port of Lubmin, will leave that site in the spring of 2024 and commence operations in Mukran in the summer.
Once operational, a total of up to 13.5 billion m3 of natural gas can be fed into the German long-distance gas pipeline network via the Mukran energy terminal, the operator noted.
Stephan Knabe, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Deutsche ReGas, stated: “Deutsche ReGas has delivered again and is now in a position to make a greater contribution to the security of supply of Germany, especially East Germany, and also Eastern European neighbouring countries.”
