First full LNG cargo was offloaded onto the LNG tanker Energos Princess, now underway for Europe.

New Fortress Energy Inc. has reported the first LNG shipment from its initial “Fast LNG” asset located offshore Altamira, Mexico.

The company says that the first full LNG cargo was offloaded from its “FLNG” facility (short for “Fast LNG”) and placed upon the LNG tanker Energos Princess, which has now set sail for Europe.

NFE’s previously reported plans for its Fast LNG (FLNG) hub off Altamira call for multiple 1.4-MMt/year FLNG units drawing on CFE’s existing pipeline transportation capacity on TC Energy’s Sur de Texas-Tuxpan pipeline for the feed gas.
