Croatian FSRU receives another US LNG cargo

State-owned terminal operator LNG Croatia said it has received the 36th LNG cargo at the FSRU-based Krk import facility since the launch of operations in January last year.

LNG Croatia said in a short statement that the 180,000-cbm Traiano Knutsen docked at the 140,000-cbm FSRU on August 1, but it did not reveal any additional information.

According to its AIS data provided by VesselsValue, the 2020-built carrier, owned by Knutsen and chartered by Enel, previously picked up the cargo at Cheniere’s Corpus Christi facility in Texas.

Croatia’s FSRU mostly gets supplies from the US.

The terminal boosted its capacity earlier this year from 2.6 billion cubic meters of gas to 2.9 bcm per year without new investment.

Croatia is also nearing a decision to further increase the capacity of its FSRU-based LNG import terminal, as European countries look to slash reliance on Russian gas.

The country plans to even double the regasification capacity of the terminal to some 6.1 bcm.
