Peru LNG sent five shipments in June

During June, the 4.4 mtpa LNG plant sent two LNG cargoes each to the Netherlands and South Korea, and one LNG cargo each to China.

The shipments loaded onboard the LNG carriers Megara, Orion Jessica, LNGShips Athena, Maran Gas Chios, and New Nature equal 354,451 tonnes, the Perupetro data shows.

These five LNG cargoes, which were loaded at the Peru LNG plant last month, compare to five cargoes in June 2025 and five cargoes in the prior month.

There were no exports in April, while Peru LNG shipped two cargoes in March due to the disruption of Transportadora de Gas del Peru’s Camisea pipeline.

The 173,000-cbm Murex also left the Peru LNG plant on July 2, and it is heading to South Korea, the Perupertro data shows.

In total, the LNG plant has sent 22 shipments to date this year, the data shows.

LNG giant Shell holds 20 percent in Peru LNG and offtakes all the volumes.

US-based Hunt operates the LNG plant with a 35 percent stake, while Japan’s Marubeni has 10 percent in the LNG terminal operator.

In 2024, MidOcean Energy, the LNG unit of US-based energy investor EIG, completed the purchase of an additional 15 percent interest in Peru LNG from Hunt Oil. MidOcean’s interest in Peru LNG stands at 35 percent.
