Atlantic Gulf & Pacific’s Philippines LNG on Thursday welcomed to its import terminal the country’s first liquefied natural gas cargo carrier.AG&P said in a statement the ADNOC Logistics & Services LNG carrier, ISH, began commissioning as FSU at PHLNG, the first operational LNG terminal in the Philippines and the first modular LNG terminal in the world.
“With the docking of the ISH at PHLNG for the next decade or longer, AG&P is proudly set to open the first LNG terminal in the Philippines called PHLNG, one with both floating and, shortly, almost equal onshore tank storage, providing near 100 percent availability,” AG&P chairman and chief executive Joseph Sigelman said.
“As the first cargo of fuel originated in Abu Dhabi and with the long-term presence of the ISH, ADNOC L&S is playing a pivotal role alongside AG&P and San Miguel, our anchor customer, in bringing clean energy to the Philippines,” Sigelman said.AG&P subsidiary, GAS Entec, converted the ADNOC L&S Japan-built Moss-type ISH to the 137,500 cbm FSU in five months.
ADNOC L&S will undertake the supply, operations and maintenance of the FSU as part of its long-term chartered agreement with AG&P.
