據(jù)3月24日offshore energy消息：由地中海天然氣公司開發(fā)的位于Volos港口的ARGO FSRU項(xiàng)目已經(jīng)獲得了希臘能源監(jiān)管局(RAE)的批準(zhǔn)。

地中海天然氣公司是希臘的一家能源公用事業(yè)公司，該公司是Volos港務(wù)局Argo項(xiàng)目的幕后推手。該項(xiàng)目的目標(biāo)是成為巴爾干半島、地中海地區(qū)和整個(gè)歐洲的液化天然氣和能源中心。

早在2021年10月，埃克森美孚液化天然氣公司和地中海天然氣公司就簽署了一份諒解備忘錄，以評(píng)估埃克森美孚LNG對(duì)Volos LNG再氣化終端的供應(yīng)。

兩家公司通過社交媒體表示，Argo FSRU項(xiàng)目已達(dá)到一個(gè)重要里程碑。通過獲得該許可證，MedGas現(xiàn)在有權(quán)建設(shè)和運(yùn)營(yíng)擬議中的液化天然氣終端。

Argo FSRU的名字來自希臘神話中的一艘船。其容量為15萬到18萬立方米。

該項(xiàng)目的總成本約為2.265億歐元(2.485億美元)。

此外，該公司表示，其目標(biāo)是將Volos港打造成國(guó)際能源供應(yīng)中心。其范圍將涵蓋LNG、CNG、天然氣、燃料補(bǔ)給、電力生產(chǎn)以及發(fā)電。

該項(xiàng)目將特別支持歐洲的能源安全和多樣化。

另一方面，希臘公司Gastrade正在計(jì)劃其第二個(gè)FSRU項(xiàng)目。繼Alexandroupolis FSRU之后，該公司正在規(guī)劃新項(xiàng)目Thrace INGS，項(xiàng)目將在色雷斯海配備FSRU單元。

Argo FSRU project greenlighted by Greece’s regulatory authority

The ARGO FSRU project in Volos port, developed by Mediterranean Gas, has been greenlighted by Greece’s Regulatory Authority for Energy (RAE).

Mediterranean Gas is a Greek energy utility company that is behind the FSRU-based Volos Port Authority project Argo. The project has the ambition to become the LNG and energy hub for Balkan, Mediterranean Region, and Europe in general.

Back in October 2021, ExxonMobil LNG and Mediterranean Gas signed an MoU to assess ExxonMobil LNG’s supply into the proposed LNG regasification terminal in Volos.

The companies informed via social media that the Argo FSRU project has now reached a major milestone. By securing this license, MedGas now has the authority to construct and operate the proposed LNG terminal.

The Argo FSRU name comes from a ship from Greek mythology. It will have a capacity of 150,000 to 180,000 cubic meters.

The project’s total cost will amount to about €226.5 million ($248.5 m).

Additionally, the company says it targets to make Volos Port an international hub of energy supply. Its scope will cover LNG, CNG, natural gas, bunkering, power production, as well as electricity generation. 

The project would specifically support European energy security and diversification.

On the other hand, Greek company Gastrade is planning its second FSRU project. After Alexandroupolis FSRU, it is planning the new project Thrace INGS that will feature an FSRU unit at the Sea of Thrace.
