Background

Delimara FSRU Terminal is a floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) regasification terminal in South Eastern Region, Malta. The FLNG consists of Armada LNG's Mediterrana, a conversion of the former LNG carrier Wakabu Maru, converted by Armada in Singapore under a $300 million contract and delivered in October 2016. The FLNG supplies natural gas to the 200-MW Delimara power plant, which has been converted from oil to natural gas. It went into service January 2017.

The FLNG is chartered in equal parts by German firm Siemens, Azerbaijani state oil firm SOCAR, and GEM Holdings (a consortium of 3 Maltese companies). However, BumiArmada owns the FSRU.
