Belgian LNG terminal operator Fluxys is offering one regasification slot for July at its LNG import facility in the port of Zeebrugge.
Fluxys LNG, a unit of Fuxys, will hold an auction for this July 12 slot on its website on April 26, the firm said in a statement.
“The starting price is the regulated tariff of 645,837.75 euros. The major price step is 200,000 euros, the minor price step is 50,000 euros,” the firm said.
For this cargo, Fluxys LNG has upgraded the standard slot size and commercializes as a bundle the firm rights to unload, store and regasify up to 165,000 cbm LNG over 10 days, it said.
The Zeebrugge terminal currently consists of five tanks with a storage capacity of 566,000 cbm and a regasification capacity of about 6.6 mtpa.
However, Fluxys is expanding the facility to almost double the regasification capacity and to add four more truck loading bays.
Fluxys previously said it aims to offer 4.7 mtpa of additional regasification capacity at the Zeebruge LNG facility as of early 2024 and the full 6 mtpa as of early 2026.
Besides the Zeebrugge LNG terminal, Fluxys operates the Dunkirk LNG plant in France.
Fluxys and EIG also bought an 80 percent equity stake in GNL Quintero, the largest regasification terminal in Chile.
