More LNG bound for South Hook

The UK’s South Hook LNG terminal, located on the shores of the Milford Haven waterway, is set to receive its second cargo in July. 

According to the Port Authority data, the 210,000 cbm Al Sheehaniya LNG carrier is scheduled to dock at the terminal’s jetty on July 10.

The first July cargo from Qatar’s Ras Laffan was delivered on board another 210,000 cbm carrier, the Al Karaana that is currently unloading at the facility.

The Al Sheehaniya LNG carrier was built by Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering and delivered to Nakilat in 2009 before being chartered on a long-term deal to Qatargas.

The South Hook terminal, owned by Qatar Petroleum, ExxonMobil and Total can process 15.6 million tonnes of LNG a year and is capable of delivering 21 billion cubic metres of gas a year into the UK’s national transmission system.
