UK's South Hook LNG Terminal Commences Commercial Operations

Published: 06-Oct-2009

South Hook liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal at Milford Haven in South West Wales has completed its commissioning of Phase 1 and is now commercially operational. The South Hook terminal is owned by a UK joint venture of Qatar Petroleum (67.5%), Exxon Mobil Corporation (24.15%) and Total S.A (8.35%). Construction of the terminal is occurring in two phases: Phase 1 has now commenced commercial operations, while Phase 2 will be completed in the first quarter of 2010.

When fully commissioned, the terminal will have a total processing capacity of 15.6 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of LNG and be capable of delivering up to 21 billion cubic meters (bcm) per year of gas into the national transmission system (NTS) which is equivalent to 20% of total current UK natural gas demand. At this stage the terminal's first phase has an annual capacity of 10.5 bcm.
