NEW YORK —New Fortress Energy Inc. (NFE) has executed a definitive agreement to charter the FSRU Energos Winter from Petrobras starting in December 2023.
The FSRU will be immediately deployed to Terminal Gas Sul (TGS), NFE’s newest LNG import terminal in Santa Catarina, Brazil, which will start commercial operations ahead of schedule in January 2024.
Energos Winter will be sub-chartered by NFE through the remaining term of the Petrobras charter with Energos infrastructure and then direct-chartered by NFE on a long-term basis with Energos. This will enable NFE to begin commercial operations at TGS in January 2024, and continue uninterrupted service on a long-term basis.
Energos Infrastructure, the owner of the Energos Winter FSRU, is owned 80% by funds managed by Apollo and 20% by NFE.
