More LNG for UK’s South Hook terminal

The UK’s South Hook LNG terminal, located on the shores of the Milford Haven waterway, is set to receive another cargo from Qatar. 

According to the Port Authority data, the 210,000 cbm Al Sheehaniya LNG carrier is scheduled to dock at the terminal’s jetty on August 20.

This will be the third cargo unloaded at the facility in a period of three days as the 266,000 cbm Rasheeda is scheduled to deliver its load on August 18 and the 210,000 cbm Onaiza LNG carrier will deliver its cargo only hours before Al Sheehaniya.

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.
