Golar LNG Ltd. reports that as of Jan. 18, 2025, the FLNG vessel Gimi received feed gas from the bp-operated FPSO on the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) project offshore Mauritania and Senegal.
Full commissioning of the FLNG has now commenced, says Golar LNG. Prior to achieving this key milestone, gas from the LNG carrier British Sponsor was being used to undertake advanced commissioning work.
Receipt of gas from the GTA FPSO allows the full commissioning activity to ramp up, the company says. The first LNG export cargo is now expected within first-quarter 2025, and the full commercial operations date is expected within second-quarter 2025, subject to all conditions being met.
