South Hook LNG books first August cargo

South Hook liquefied natural gas terminal in the United Kingdom is set to receive the first August cargo from Qatar.

The 263,000 cbm Q-Max carrier, Al Samriya, has loaded a cargo at Qatar’s Ras Laffan LNG facilities and is scheduled to dock at South Hook terminal’s jetty on August 3.

Al Samriya was built by the South Korean shipbuilder Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering and delivered to its owner Nakilat in 2009.

The South Hook terminal has the capacity to process 15.6 million tons of LNG a year and is capable of delivering 21 billion cubic meters of gas a year into the UK’s national transmission system.
