State-owned LNG Croatia said in a short statement that the 173,400-cbm Maran Gas Amphipolis delivered the cargo to the 140,000-cbm FSRU on Friday.
The LNG terminal operator said this is the 123rd cargo for the FSRU since the launch of operations in January 2021.
It did not provide further information.
Maran Gas Amphipolis’ AIS data provided by VesselsValue shows that the LNG carrier previously picked up the cargo at Atlantic LNG’s export plant in Point Fortin, led by Shell and BP.
The Croatian FSRU mainly receives shipments from the US, but it also received cargoes from Algeria, Qatar, Nigeria, Egypt, Trinidad, Indonesia, and reloads from European terminals.
In May 2023, the FSRU received its first cargo from the Atlantic LNG plant.
The Krk LNG terminal has shipped more than 10.37 billion cubic meters of natural gas into the Croatian system since 2021, according to LNG Croatia.
The LNG terminal regasified more than 17.14 million cubic meters of LNG and completed 545 truck loading operations.
Hungary’s MFGK and a unit of the Switzerland-based trading firm MET are among the users of the facility.
Due to high demand, LNG Croatia is currently working to boost the capacity of its FSRU-based Krk LNG terminal.
In 2023, a unit of Finland’s Wartsila won a contract to supply one regasification module for the FSRU.
Under the contract, Wartsila Gas Solutions built the regas module with a maximum capacity of 250,000 m3/h.
The firm awarded the module contract to China’s CIMC SOE.
In March, CIMC SOE completed Wartsila’s regasification module.
The current three LNG regasification units have a maximum regasification rate of 451,840 m3/h.
Following the upgrade, the Krk LNG facility will have a capacity of about 6.1 bcm per year in 2025.
