Image Courtesy: Tokyo Gas The 2009-built liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanker Energy Confidence has transported the first shipment of LNG produced by the Western Australia’s Gorgon project to an LNG terminal in Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture. Featuring a length of 289 meters and a width of 49 meters, the tanker arrived at the Ohgishima LNG Terminal, operated by Japan’s natural gas provider Tokyo Gas, where it unloaded some 70,000 tons of LNG. According to AIS data provided by MarineTraffic, the 75,891 dwt vessel is currently on its way back to the Australian Gorgon facility, where it is scheduled to arrive by the end of September. Tokyo Gas and energy company Chevron, the operator of Gorgon LNG, concluded a sale and purchase agreement and an agreement regarding participation in September 2009. This is the fourth delivery of LNG from projects in which Tokyo Gas has secured participation rights, following the agreement on the Darwin LNG project, the Pluto LNG project and the Queensland Curtis LNG project, according to the company. With this delivery, Tokyo Gas now receives LNG from 12 projects in five countries. -Source: worldmaritimenews.com
Good on you Chevron ..finally did it but hope plant will not be shut down for another two months after this Cargo as Chevron LNG new advanced operation became FIFO operation : One cargo IN, Two months Plant out. This FIFO is better than the FIFO operation in Soyo LNG Plant which is One cargo in, Three Years plant out. Anyway, in terms of money this shipments of 70,000 Ton of LNG (which is about 152,000 cubic meters) will generate 3,616,410 MMBTU equating to about US$ 30,000,000 (Net). This is calculated at a slope of 17.2 % and an average price of US$48/barrel of Brent crude oil for the previous month of this cargo. The buyer is Tokyo gas which is a partner of the Seller -Chevron (producer). hence , Australian tax office should keep eyes open to ensure that the buyer writes the correct amount of money in his invoice for this LNG shipment.
