Peru ships LNG cargo to Spain

Peruvian LNG export plant at Pampa Melchorita dispatched a cargo to Spain earlier this week. 

The cargo was loaded onboard the GasLog Skagen LNG tanker, with a capacity of 155,000 cubic meters of LNG, on November 13.

State-owned Perupetro has not disclosed the exact destination of the vessel.

This was the ninth consecutive cargo shipped to Spain from the Peruvian plant, and the third during the month of November.

The 4.45 million tons per year gas liquefaction plant is located 170 kilometers south of Lima and receives gas via a 408-kilometer pipeline built across the Andes.

With the latest cargo, the facility has dispatched 429 vessels in total since it started operations in June 2010.
