Shell LNG carrier earmarked for El Salvador’s first FSRU

An LNG carrier currently owned by Shell has been selected as the preferred vessel for conversion into a floating storage and regasification unit for El Salvador’s planned import project, for which BW LNG will provide the FSRU.

TradeWinds has learned that the 137,001-cbm Gallina (built 2002), which is one of three Moss-type, G-class LNG carriers controlled by the energy major, has been selected for conversion to serve as the floating import terminal for the Acajutla LNG project.
