Seatrium in Singapore has won a contract to convert Hoegh Evi’s LNG carrier Hoegh Gandria into a liquefied natural gas floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU).
Hoegh Evi on Monday confirmed it had signed a 10-year time charter agreement with Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (EGAS) for the deployment of the Hoegh Gandria as an FSRU in Egypt.
The workscope includes the installation of a regasification skid, as well as integration of key supporting systems such as cargo handling, utility, offloading, electrical and automation systems.
Engineering works for the project will commence this month with an estimated project duration of 18 months.
