Project Profile
Location: Oslo, Norway
Regasification capacity: 50-300 mmscfd
Storage capacity: 130,000 to 145,000 m3
Dreifa is developing a floating regasification unit (“FRU”) with regasification capacity of 50-300 mmscfd. The FRU can be chartered on short term contracts such as 5-years and include optionality to terminate early or extend depending on future LNG demand. This allows the client to commercially manage the project and market risks without jeopardising project economics
The FRU consists of regasification equipment and related utilities on a platform supply vessel (“PSV”). In June 2017, Dreifa purchased the PSV “Blue Betria” for conversion to FRU. Blue Betria was built in 1983 and extensively upgraded in 2015. The FSU will be acquired or chartered in the second hand market for LNG carriers. In order to minimize CAPEX/OPEX the vessel is envisioned having a storage capacity of 130,000 to 145,000 m3 and steam turbine propulsion. Transfer of LNG from the LNGC to the FSU and vapour return from the FSU to the LNGC during cargo loading will be done by industry standard ship to ship transfer using flexible hoses.
