Commissioned in late March of this year, the terminal initially employed the EXQUISITE for both cargo delivery and regasification purposes. The terminal will continue to receive LNG supply via periodical STS transfers allowing for the continuous flow of gas into the local gas distribution system.

As part of the commissioning process, EXQUISITE loaded its first LNG cargo in Ras Laffan, Qatar, on March 24, 2015. After arriving in Port Qasim on March 27, the terminal completed commissioning activities and regasification acceptance test in less than three days, allowing the EXQUISITE to enter commercial service by March 31, 2015.

“Our goal is to provide safe and reliable performance for our customers, while working to commission projects quickly to begin serving their energy needs as soon as possible,” stated Rob Bryngelson, President and CEO of Excelerate. “As the FSRU industry leader, our experience and expertise allow us to measure our commissioning timelines in days, not months.”

The LNG Terminal in Port Qasim is the ninth floating regasification terminal developed by Excelerate directly or in collaboration with its partners and customers. Engro and Excelerate’s successful collaboration to implement this critical infrastructure project in Pakistan exemplifies Excelerate’s partnership approach for the delivery of efficient, reliable, and cost effective floating regasification solutions around the world.
