The Energie-Terminal “Deutsche Ostsee” operated by Deutsche ReGas in the industrial port of Mukran commenced regular operations yesterday.
The LNG carrier HELLAS DIANA unloaded its cargo at the Energie-Terminal “Deutsche Ostsee” from Wednesday to Friday last week. This was a “world first” for a concurrent LNG delivery into the two interconnected FSRUs (so-called “triple banking).
The privately financed Energie-Terminal “Deutsche Ostsee” has a storage capacity of over 300,000 cubic meters of LNG and is the largest feed-in point of all German LNG terminals with a firm capacity of 16 GWh/h. Around 15 percent of Germany's total natural gas demand can be fed from the terminal into the OAL, NEL and EUGAL gas pipeline system. The OAL, NEL and EUGAL pipelines enable the reliable and efficient gas transport from the German Baltic coast onwards within Germany, Austria and to the neighbouring Eastern European countries.
“The start of regular operations shows the central role of the Energie-Terminal “Deutsche Ostsee” for the security of supply in Germany, Austria and Eastern Europe” says Ingo Wagner, CEO of Deutsche ReGas. “The ReGas Team can be extremely proud to achieve this Milestone after months of meticulous preparatory work to ensure safe, environmentally friendly and smooth operations.”
