Poland’s natural gas transmission system operator GAZ-SYSTEM has launched a non-binding market screening procedure to identify the demand for additional regasification capacity of the floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) in the Gulf of Gdańsk area.
Pursuant to the assumptions set out in the open season procedure initiated in 2021, the new terminal project envisages the construction of the FSRU with a capacity to deliver approximately 6.1 bcm of regasified natural gas annually.
At the planning stage, GAZ-SYSTEM considered the possibility of expanding the regasification capacity of the FSRU terminal depending on market development potential and the increase in demand for natural gas both domestically and in the region.
Considering the observed increased market interest in LNG supplies, GAZ-SYSTEM said it is initiating a non-binding market screening procedure to estimate the demand for additional regasification capacity of the FSRU terminal in relation to the capacity booked under the first phase of the open season procedure.
