QatarEnergy has announced the commencement in July of utilisation of the long-term LNG delivery, storage, and regasification capacity at the Isle of Grain terminal in the UK.
The capacity of up to
7.2 million tonnes per annum will be utilised pursuant to a long-term agreement
signed in October 2020.
The first LNG cargo to
be delivered under this agreement was unloaded at the Isle of Grain terminal on 15
July 2025, marking the start of the 25-year term of the agreement.
Saad Al-Kaabi, the
Minister of State for Energy Affairs, the President and CEO of QatarEnergy
said: “We are pleased to commence utilisation of the LNG storage, and
regasification capacity at the Isle of Grain terminal. This is an important
milestone, which expands our LNG storage portfolio, and marks a significant
step in QatarEnergy’s strategic expansion into the UK gas market through
Europe’s largest LNG receiving terminal.”
Commencing the utilisation
of the Isle of Grain’s terminal capacity also complements QatarEnergy’s wholly
owned subsidiary, QatarEnergy Trading’s existing LNG terminal capacities at
Zeebrugge (Belgium) and Montoir (France), reinforcing its commitment to
providing reliable LNG supplies across Europe, while enhancing the flexibility
of its global LNG portfolio and supporting the rapid growth of its business. -OGN/TradeArabia News Service
