Qatargas, RasGas complete LNG co-loading for split delivery

Qatargas and RasGas have successfully completed the first co-loading of Liquefied Natural Gas for split delivery according to a Qatargas statement.

The companies noted the method of multi-port delivery of a single LNG cargo from two separate suppliers represents a new level of operational flexibility and supply chain efficiency in the LNG industry. Qatargas and RasGas co-loaded the cargoes at the Ras Laffan terminal in Qatar on the Q-Flex LNG vessel, Al Khuwair. The cargoes were delivered to the Zeebrugge LNG Terminal in Belgium and the South Hook LNG Terminal in the United Kingdom respectively.

Mr. Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi, President and Chief Executive Officer of Qatar Petroleum, and the Chairman of Qatargas Board of Directors, said: “We are delighted to have achieved this key industry milestone through the hard work and dedication of the Qatargas and RasGas teams, vessel operators and our LNG customers. This remarkable achievement underscores our commitment to sustaining Qatar’s position as the world’s premier LNG supplier.”
