Greece’s new floating natural gas storage unit installed by Desfa in Revithoussa, near Athens, has received its first LNG cargo according to Greek gas grid operator.
- The shipment of over 140k m3 LNG will be completed within the coming days.
- The operation of the FSU increases the storage capacity of the LNG terminal at Revithoussa by 70% to around 370k m3 from 225k m3 and increases regas capacity by 12%.
- Greek LNG imports via the Revithoussa terminal jumped to a record 60 cargoes (about 27.85 TWh of LNG) in the January-September period due to significantly higher volumes from the US, according to DESFA. This compares to 25 vessels delivering 18.14 TWh in the same period last year.
