South Hook LNG terminal located on the shores of the Milford Haven waterway is due to receive a cargo of Qatari liquefied natural gas next week.
The Nakilat-owned Q-Flex LNG carrier Al Ghashamiya is on its way from the Qatari port of Ras Laffan and is scheduled to dock at the South Hook terminal’s jetty on December 5, port data reveals.
The 217,591-cbm carrier built in South Korea by Samsung Heavy Industries is operating under a charter deal with LNG producer Qatargas.
The South Hook terminal can process 15.6 million tons of LNG annually, which is close to 20 percent of the natural gas needs of the UK.
Qatar Petroleum owns 67.5 percent of South Hook LNG, ExxonMobil 24.15 percent and Total owns the rest.
