Industry Briefs

The first cargo of liquefied natural gas (LNG) is expected to arrive at the GDF Suez Neptune LNG deepwater port offshore Gloucester, MA, some time in August, a company spokesperson confirmed. Carol Churchill told NGI the port’s south buoy has been successfully tested and is operational. “The LNG deliveries that were made during the testing process actually resulted in gas entering the pipeline system and being delivered to New England customers,” she noted. “We continue to work on the north buoy. The GDF SUEZ Cape Ann, the second of two shuttle and regasification vessels, is expected to arrive in August. We still need to test that vessel as well as the north buoy. The GDF SUEZ Neptune made its first delivery to the Neptune port during the testing process in March.”
