Singapore LNG received its
first shipment of LNG, for the
commissioning of the terminal,
on 27 March 2013. Then on
7 May 2013 the first commercial
LNG cargo from BG Group was
successfully off-loaded at
the terminal.
At the stroke of midnight, the
LNG was regasified and sent
out through the terminal to the
Singapore gas network.
We played a key role in this
project as PMC, providing
expertise and leadership to both
SLNGs project management and
Samsung C&Ts EPC team.
With the strong contribution
from our team, the project was
executed with no lost-time injuries
and a total recordable injury rate
of less than 0.24 per 200,000
manhours - a great achievement
considering that more than
15 million manhours were
expended on the project.
The LNG terminal has an initial
regasification capacity of 3.5
million tonnes per annum (mtpa).
A third LNG tank, additional
regasification facilities and a
secondary berth are currently
under construction. We are
working as PMC on this second
phase, which will increase the
regasification capacity to 6 mtpa
by the end of 2013. Phase 3 FEED
for a fourth tank and additional
facilities for the potential future
expansion of the terminal is
in progress.
Phase 1 of this strategically important project has been a great success.
The close working relationships and team spirit have undoubtedly
contributed to the excellent safety record, and its on-budget and on-time
performance. We will continue to work with the same collaborative team
spirit to help make the next phase just as successful.
