Fluxys LNG awards contract for expansion of Zeebrugge terminal
Fluxys LNG N.V./ S.A. has awarded TS LNG a turnkey project for the
extension of the LNG terminal in the Zeebrugge Port, 20 km away from Bruges (Belgium). TS LNG is a joint venture between SENER and Techint E&C.
The project in the plant will be carried out within 2015
The extension works will consist of adding a second jetty, enabling the facility to increase capacity and further develop into a hub for supplying LNG as fuel for ships and long-haul trucks. Once the construction works are over in mid-2015, the terminal will have an additional LNG loading/unloading capacity of 14,000 m3/hour.
TS LNG will carry out all project related activities, being also in charge for project management, procurement and construction, as well as for construction and commissioning management.
To date, TS LNG has been responsible for large-scale projects such as Gate terminal, in the Netherlands – an international reference in the regasification plants industry – and the Dunkirk terminal, in France. The capacity of the terminal in Rotterdam – built on time and on budget - is 12 billion m3/year, while the one in Dunkirk is capable of 13 billion m3/year.
