Peruvian LNG heads for Mexico

Peru’s only liquefaction and export facility shipped a cargo of liquefied natural gas to Mexico. 

State-owned Perupetro reveals that on Sunday, March 20, Shell’s G class LNG carrier Gemmata with a capacity of 138,104 cbm, departed Peru’s plant at Pampa Melchorita.

The liquefied natural gas carrier built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in 2004 is probably sailing towards Mexico’s Manzanillo LNG terminal, Although Perupetro has not revealed the exact destination.

With the latest vessel’s departure, the 4.4 mtpa Peru LNG plant exported 315 cargoes of liquefied natural gas since the start of operations in June 2010.
