According to Reuters, Tokyo Gas has rejected the delivery of an LNG cargo after the vessel experienced a power outage after it entered Tokyo Bay.
Reuters reports that the Energy Atlantic – a 157 000 m3 tanker – loaded the cargo on 3 September at the Corpus Christi LNG terminal in the US. It was delivering the cargo to the Negishi terminal in Japan.
According to Reuters, the vessel – chartered by Cheniere – regained power, but Tokyo Gas did not take delivery for safety reasons, as the carrier operator did not know the reason for the outage.
