Lithuania Lithuania welcomes LNG storage vessel

摘要

Lithuania has welcomed the arrival of the LNG storage vessel, the FSRU Independence, in Klaipeda. The Klaipeda LNG terminal, described as a 'guarantor of energy and geopolitical security', will ensure self-sufficiency and security for Lithuania, enabling the country to reduce its dependence on Russian gas. The 170,000 m~3 FSRU Independence, owned by Hoegh LNG, is the second of four FSRUs ordered from Hyundai Heavy Industries, and will serve as Lithuania's first LNG import terminal under a long-term charter with Klaipedos Nafta.
