An LNG import floating terminal in Benin will be developed according to the supply agreement and a host government agreement concluded between French oil and gas company Total and the Republic of Benin.
The deals also include the supply of up to 0,5 million tons per annum (Mtpa) of regasified LNG from Total’s global portfolio to Benin for 15 years, starting in 2021.
As explained, Total will develop and operate the regasification infrastructure that will comprise a floating storage and re-gasification unit (FSRU) located offshore Benin and an offshore pipeline connection to the existing and planned power plants in Maria Gléta.
