Novatek and Tschudi set to begin ship-to-ship transfers of Yamal LNG in Norwegian waters
The arrangement, set to begin later this month, is a temporary measure to alleviate Novatek's shipping capacity strain until a new transshipment terminal can be built near Murmansk.
Norwegian shipping company Tschudi, which operates a logistics base in Kirkenes, has been contracted to develop a temporary reloading area where gas bound for Europe is transferred from ice-capable Arc7 carriers to conventional LNG carriers. The transfer of LNG will occur off the waters of Honningsvåg near Norway’s Nordkapp, industry experts involved in the project confirmed to High North News.
