There are currently two terminals being planned or implemented in Greece

[suchona.kani.z]

France: The FSRU project in Le Havre in Normandy would allow France to increase its regasification capacity by around five billion cubic meters per year. The operator, TotalEnergies, plans to commission the FSRU in Le Havre in September 2023 and provide an annual capacity of up to 2.5 billion cubic meters per year, which could cover almost ten percent of French gas consumption.
Netherlands: The FSRU in Eemshaven, the Netherlands, has a capacity of eight billion cubic meters per year. This plant was already commissioned in September 2022. It has been operating at full capacity since the beginning of December 2022.
Greece: The first FSRU, called Thrace, is located in the Aegean Sea off the coast of Greece (in the Thracian Sea off Alexandroupolis) and would deliver a maximum of 5.5 billion cubic meters per year. The operator albania consumer email list Gastrade plans to start commercial operation of the project in the fourth quarter of 2023. The second FSRU, called Argo, is planned in the port of the city of Volos and would have an annual capacity of 5.2 billion cubic meters per year. In November 2022, the operator MedGas announced that the commissioning of the FSRU would be delayed until an expected start date in the first quarter of 2025.
Croatia: The Croatian government has decided to expand the capacity of the LNG terminal on the island of Krk from the current 2.6 to over 6.1 billion cubic meters per year.
Conclusion
It is clear that efforts to diversify gas supplies away from Russian supplies are not only in full swing in Germany, but also at the European level. Many announced LNG terminal projects are currently being implemented. In particular, EU nations with a high dependency on Russian gas supplies such as Italy (two FSRU projects and resumption and capacity expansion of terminals) and the cooperation around Finland and Estonia (one FSRU project) see it as their duty to act in the short and medium term. Other countries with efforts to build their own LNG import infrastructure are France (one FSRU project), the Netherlands (one FSRU project), Greece (two FSRU projects) and Croatia (expansion of one FSRU project). So things remain exciting on the European LNG market. We'll stay on the ball for you.
