QTL is already a party to an existing agreement that provides that approximately 50% of the terminal`s capacity is used to supply Qatari LNG to Belgium under long-term LNG agreements. Gate Terminal: The Gate Terminal is located in the port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands and provides access to the gas market in north-west Europe. It has an annual flow capacity of 12 billion m3 per year (bcma) (8.5 mtpa) – one third of the total Dutch market. The terminal is operated by Fluxys LNG, part of the independent Belgian natural gas company Fluxys. Currently, the terminal has 380,000 cubic meters of LNG storage capacity, spread over 4 reservoirs and an annual capacity of 9 billion cubic meters of natural gas. A fifth storage tank of 180,000 cubic metres is under development. Altamira Terminal – TLA: Attractive on the east coast of Mexico, TLA makes it easy to import LNG into the country and serve neighbouring islands in the future. TLA has an annual throughput capacity of 7.4 bcma (5 mtpa) Under the agreement, Qatar Terminal Limited (QTL), a subsidiary of Qatar Petroleum, will subscribe to full capacity at the terminal from the expiry of current long-term unloading contracts until 2044. Engro Elengy Terminal (EETPL): EETPL is the first FSRU terminal to free up access to Pakistan`s expanding gas market in Port Qasim. It has an annual flow capacity of 6.5 bcma (4.5 mtpa).

SPEC LNG Terminal: Located in Colombia, SPEC has an annual throughput capacity of 4 bcma. The LNG import facility consists of an LNG mooring site, onshore infrastructure and a 9.2 km pipeline connecting SPEC to the national gas network. A chartered FSRU receives LNG and sends the gas ashore. SPEC has long-term contracts with three local gas-fired power plants. We offer all interested LNG suppliers and customers open, non-discriminatory access to our terminals and are always open to strong partnerships. Together, we have a combined LNG storage capacity of 1,160,000 m3 and a total throughput capacity of 29.9 bcma. In addition, Vopak is a partner in the German LNG terminal. In addition, Minister Marie Christine Marghem noted that Qatar is the only gas-producing country to have long-term LNG import contracts in northwestern Europe and that about 15% of Belgian gas consumption comes from Qatar. Vopak LNG is the independent global operator of the LNG Natural Gas regasation terminal.

This decision was published on 17 November 2006 in the government bulletin board (Dutch: Staatscourant). A copy of this decision and all relevant details are immediately brought to the attention of the European Committee in accordance with Article 18 not 9 of the Gas Act. The waiver includes the following conditions and instructions: Vopak`s strategy is to create lifting terminals such as Gate Terminal and TLA for importation, but also to redistribute LNG in small quantities of satellite terminals to local markets. This is called the break-bulk model. The Minister of Economy, Agriculture and Innovation (ELI) is granting a derogation from certain dutchGas Act commitments. LNG is becoming the fuel of choice and is of the utmost importance for many countries who wish to improve security of supply and add an additional source of supply to their gas supply portfolio. We are partnering with local (infrastructure) companies to open up new markets for LNG. Our joint venture partners such as Gasunie for Gate Terminal, Enagas for TLA, Engro in Pakistan and Promigas in Colombia are independent and trustworthy players in their markets, with the necessary knowledge and contracts with local authorities.
