Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL) has been selected as the preferred shipowner to time charter out a Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU) for the planned LNG import terminal in the Gulf of Gdańsk, Poland.
This is Poland’s first such FSRU. The FSRU is assumed to be berthed at a mooring platform approximately 3km from the shore, in the area of the Port of Gdańsk between the mouths of the Vistula River branches: Śmiała and Martwa. As part of the project, the necessary offshore and onshore infrastructure will also be constructed.
Andrzej Kensbok, Vice President of GAZ-SYSTEM Management Board noted that in the near future, they will focus on developing the detailed terms of the so-called Time Charter Party. Furthermore, they need to obtain all necessary corporate approvals from Gaz System’s management bodies to sign the agreement with the shipowner
We are confident that the vast operational and technical experience we have garnered through our 140 years of history in the industry, along with our financial capability, will enhance the project and ensure a seamless, safe and efficient service is provided to Gaz System.
