Background

Samat LNG Corporation was founded in 2020 to develop, own and operate LNG import terminals primarily to industrial and commercial customers for power supply and transportation fuel. In January 2023, the company received a Notice to Proceed (NTP) for the Mariveles LNG Terminal from the Philippines' Department of Energy. It was reported that Samat LNG was targeting the first half of 2024 for the commencement of commercial operations at the import terminal.

The Mariveles LNG terminal was planned to be the first small-scale LNG terminal in the Philippines, with a capacity to handle about 200,000- 400,000 tonnes of LNG per year.

In January 2024, PNOC was considering an investment in the facility. As of 2026, there have been no developments in two years, and the project is considered to be shelved.
