The unit in question, Turquoise P, is managed by BSM’s ship management center, Pronav. The company operates large-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers from its office in Hamburg.

The 2019-built FSRU is owned by Pardus Energy and stationed at the Etki Liman LNG terminal in the Turkish Aegean Sea, near Izmir. The unit is 294 meters long and boasts a cargo capacity of 170,000 cubic meters.

BSM is set to join an exclusive club, since it says that only very few of around 50 FSRUs worldwide are managed by third-party ship managers.

“This is a milestone for Pronav and the entire Schulte Group. We are proud that our many years of expertise in ship management of LNG carriers and our flawless safety record have enabled us to take on the technical management of ‘Turquoise P’,” said Martin Roolvink, Managing Director of Pronav.

The Etki Liman LNG terminal in Western Türkiye is connected to the national gas grid. It is said to be of major importance in supplying energy to the Izmir region, especially in times of peak demand or seasonal fluctuations.
