Exclusive candidate for EPC contract tender

COBRA Instalaciones y Servicios S.A., SENER Ingeniería y sistemas S.A. and TGE Gas Engineering GmbH has been selected for this final phase. The phase will consist of a value-improvement exercise and a detailed price actualisation to make the project more cost efficient. It aims to conclude a binding EPC contract by the end of 2020. It is expected that the detailed design and engineering work, necessary to develop purchase orders of long-lead products, can then be started soon after the finalization of the contract.

German LNG started the international prequalification process for the selection of an EPC contractor in June 2019. The selection of a potential partner for the final development of the EPC contract is a further milestone for the project. At the same time, German LNG Terminal is in the process of completing the permit application for the planning of the port infrastructure, including the waterside facilities.

The selected partnership members have extensive long-term experience in electricity, oil and gas projects worldwide. Between them they share a design and construction history of involvement in a number of LNG terminal projects, such as Sines (Portugal) / Sagunto and Bahía Bizcaya (Spain) / Gate (The Netherlands) / Dunkerque (France) / and Zeebrugge (Belgium).

Last month, Hamburg Port Authority announced its support for the German LNG Terminal project.
