Equatorial Guinea loading first LNG since September

London, 10 November (Argus) — Equatorial Guinea's 3.7mn t/yr EG LNG export terminal will shortly load its first cargo since late September, when feedgas supply problems constrained liquefaction.

The 174,000m³ SCF Barents LNG carrier arrived at the terminal this morning, berthing at its jetty. The vessel is under long-term charter with Shell, which also holds 3.4mn t/yr of fob supply from EG LNG.

The terminal most recently exported a cargo on 25 September — on the 173,000m³ Maran Gas Amphipolis — Vortexa tracking data show. This was delivered to Thailand's Mab ta Phut terminal in mid-October.
