Background
Singapore LNG Terminal is an LNG import terminal in West Region, Singapore. It is owned by Singapore LNG Corporation with capacity of 6 mtpa. It was commissioned in 2013.[12]
In August 2014 Singapore LNG announced that it was expanding the terminal's capacity from 6 mtpa to 11 mtpa. The expansion is planned for completion in 2018.[13]
Expansion Background
As of January 2018 the expansion to 11 mtpa was complete, and a further expansion was planned for late 2018, involving the construction of a fourth storage tank that would hold 260,000 cubic meters of gas.[14] In December 2018 it was reported that SLNG was considering building a fifth storage tank with 180,000-cbm to 260,000-cbm capacity and commencement date of 2022 or 2023.[15]
Singapore LNG, owner and operator of the Jurong LNG terminal, is performing studies to build additional jetty capacity to support future small-scale LNG and LNG bunkering demand. In July 2020 the Energy Market Authority of Singapore issued a Request-for-Proposal (RFP) to appoint up to two additional LNG term importers for Singapore. A decision is expected in the first half of 2021.[16]
SLNG began construction of a new LNG truck-loading facility at Jurong Island (China International Water & Electric Corp. (S) Pte. Ltd., EPC contractor), targeted for completion in 2026, to support growing domestic trucked-LNG distribution. The facility has two loading bays and accommodates larger 40-footer trucks (vs. the existing facility's 20-footer limit). It is administratively part of the SLNG Terminal site but segregated from the main marine-import operations, and does not change the terminal's nameplate import capacity (reported elsewhere as 9 mtpa average / 11 mtpa peak).[17]
In July 2026, Singapore LNG signed a terminal-use agreement with a unit of Chinese utility Jiaxing Gas, allowing Jiaxing Gas to use SLNG's terminal facilities. Deal specifics (capacity, duration) were behind a paywall and could not be confirmed.[18]
