EU funds for LNG
A collaboration between private infrastructure companies and the Ports of Gothenburg and Rotterdam aims to provide LNG for shipping by 2015.
The project will receive SEK 305m in funding from the EU.
There are already strong indications that the investment in LNG terminals in Rotterdam and Gothenburg will be one of the EU Commission’s most prioritised Motorways of the Seas projects ever.
The Dutch company Vopak and the Swedish gas infrastructure company Swedegas are investing in an LNG terminal in Gothenburg which will supply LNG to both shipping and industry.
The collaboration with the Port of Rotterdam, Vopak and the gas infrastructure companies Gasunie and Swedegas will involve constructing the necessary LNG infrastructure at the GATE LNG terminal in Rotterdam. This will enable the supply to the LNG terminal in Gothenburg.
