Singapore LNG to Add Second LNG Import Terminal via FSRU Charter

24 Oct 2024 CW Team

Singapore LNG Corporation (SLNG) has signed an agreement to charter a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) from a subsidiary of Japan’s Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL). This new FSRU will serve as Singapore’s second import terminal for liquefied natural gas (LNG), as the country looks to enhance its LNG infrastructure to meet rising natural gas demand.

The FSRU, which is being built by South Korean shipbuilder Hanwha Ocean, will have a storage capacity of 200,000 cubic meters and a regasification capacity of 5 million tons per annum (mtpa), SLNG said in a statement on Wednesday. The terminal is expected to be operational by the end of the decade.

Currently, Singapore’s only LNG terminal is located on Jurong Island in the western part of the country. It has an annual gas supply capacity of 9 mtpa, with a peak capacity of around 11 mtpa. The new FSRU will be berthed at Jurong Port, and infrastructure will be developed to connect it to onshore pipelines and the national gas pipeline network.

This project marks a significant step in Singapore’s efforts to secure and diversify its natural gas supply. SLNG announced in October last year that it would build and operate a second LNG import terminal to ensure that the country’s entire natural gas demand could be met by LNG. The new terminal is set to play a key role in enhancing energy security and supporting Singapore’s growing energy needs.
