RWE and ADNOC agree on first LNG delivery
RWE has reached agreements with two companies from Abu Dhabi: With Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) on LNG supplies and with Masdar, Abu Dhabi’s flagship renewable energy company, on cooperation in offshore wind.
ADNOC and RWE have signed a supply agreement on the first delivery of a cargo of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) to be supplied to ‘Elbehafen LNG’ at Brunsbüttel, near Hamburg, Germany. Elbehafen LNG will operate one of the two Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FRSU), that RWE chartered on behalf of the German government. The cargo is expected to be shipped from Das Island, Abu Dhabi and to arrive in Germany in late December 2022. The cargo delivered by ADNOC will be for 137,000 cubic metres of LNG and will be the first LNG to be supplied to the German gas market via the floating LNG import terminal at Brunsbüttel. This marks an important milestone in building-up an LNG supply infrastructure in Germany and setting-up a more diversified gas supply.
Furthermore, the two companies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on multi-year LNG supplies where cargoes will be delivered to Germany starting from 2023. LNG supplies from ADNOC can be delivered to Germany through either floating or land-based regasification terminals as these become operational. Read More
