Background
Hachinohe LNG Terminal is an LNG terminal in Tohoku, Japan.[1]
Hachinohe LNG Terminal began operation in 2006. Construction of a replacement facility began in 2010 and was commissioned in 2015. The project encompassed the construction of two LNG tanks with a capacity of 140,000 cubic meters each, loading and unloading facilities for LNG tankers and tank cars, as well as regasification facilities.[1]
According to the 2023 GIIGNL report, "In 2022, Eneos announced plans to add LNG ship-to-ship transfer (STS) services and break-bulking cargoes into smaller vessels at the Hachinohe terminal jetty."[2]
Hachinohe LNG Terminal distributes fuel to Akita LNG Terminal and Kushiro LNG Terminal via coastal vessels for further gasification.[3]
