据9月22日Gulf Times报道，卡塔尔天然气公司(Qatargas)已经用Q-Flex船向位于孟加拉国近海的浮式储油和再气化装置(FSRU)交付了第一批液化天然气(LNG)。

这批货物由卡塔尔租赁的“Al Thumama”号船舶于9月4日在Ras Laffan装载，并于9月20日在Moheshkali液化天然气终端（MLNG）交付给“Excellence”号。

这是Q-Flex船第一次在商业开放水域的船对船转移转载。MLNG项目是由Excelerate Energy公司和孟加拉国石油、天然气和矿产公司(Petrobangla) 共同开发和运营一个项目。

FSRU“卓越号”与孟加拉国家石油公司签署了一项为期15年的租赁协议，并于2018年4月从卡塔尔运送了首批液化天然气货物。

“Excellence”号是一艘Q-Flex级液化天然气船，总载货能力为216,000立方米。

向孟加拉国家石油公司的供货是根据卡塔尔天然气公司与孟加拉国家石油公司于2017年9月签署的一项长期协议进行的，该协议将供应高达250万吨/年液化天然气，为期15年。

Qatargas delivers first LNG cargo on Q-Flex to FSRU offshore Bangladesh

Qatargas has delivered the first cargo of liquefied natural gas (LNG) on a Q-Flex vessel to the floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU), located offshore Bangladesh.

The cargo, aboard Qatargas-chartered ‘Al Thumama’, was loaded at Ras Laffan on September 4, and delivered to ‘Excellence’ and known as Moheshkali LNG Terminal (MLNG) on September 20.

This is the first commercial open water ship-to-ship transfer involving a Q-Flex vessel. MLNG is a project jointly developed by Excelerate Energy and the Bangladesh Oil, Gas and Mineral Corporation (Petrobangla) on a build, own and operate basis.

The FSRU ‘Excellence’ is under a 15-year charter deal to Petrobangla and carried the inaugural LNG cargo from Qatar in April 2018.

‘Al Thumama’ is a Q-Flex class LNG vessel with an overall cargo carrying capacity of 216,000 cubic metres.

The deliveries to Petrobangla are made under a long-term sale and purchase agreement signed in September 2017 between Qatargas and Petrobangla to supply up to 2.5mn tonnes of LNG per annum for 15 years.
