Offshore terminal (FSRU)
Located in the Punta Sayago area, closed to Montevideo, the GNL del Plata offshore terminal will comprise a Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU) and a jetty protected by a 1,5 km breakwater. GNL del Plata is one of Uruguay’s most important infrastructure projects and will contribute to a significant change in the country’s energy mix by providing an additional clean fuel source with access to international markets. The project will also reduce the proportion of imported oil in the country’s energy supply. The Shuttle Regasification Vessel GDF SUEZ NEPTUNE will be used as a bridge solution before the delivery of the new-built FSRU. Within this project, GDF SUEZ awarded Burckhardt Compression an order for a Laby®-GI Compressor type 5LP250-4A_1, a fully balanced reciprocating compressor with highest operational flexibility.
Flenco is pleased to have been selected as preferred partner by Burckhardt Compression to supply its auxiliary systems for this project. For further inquiries about this collaboration, you can ask your usual contact person at our Sales Department or complete and send us our contact form.
