Awarded through an international competitive bidding process, the PGPC project is providing LNG
storage and regasification services to state-owned Pakistan LNG Terminals Limited (PLTL) of up to
600mmscfd for 15 years at an availability of 96% and at a levelized tariff of $0.4177/mmbtu—the
lowest in Pakistan and among the most competitive anywhere in the world.
The terminal’s surplus regas capacity of 90mmscfd shall, under the prevailing policy and rules, be

Despite the country’s first LNG policy being launched in 2006, Pakistan only commenced LNG imports
in 2015. Today, Pakistan, whose energy mix is heavily reliant on natural gas, is a go-to destination for
global LNG suppliers and investors. Demand for imported LNG in Pakistan is expected to grow steadily
PGPC’s key energy infrastructure project is Pakistan’s second LNG receiving facility and is of high
national importance. As a reflection of their confidence in the country’s energy sector, PGPC and
Trafigura are rapidly developing another LNG terminal at Port Qasim under the aegis of their Pakistan
Gas Solutions joint venture. This terminal will operate entirely in the private sector without recourse to
Government guarantees.
The FSRU for this project, BW Integrity, originally Hull No. 2118, was constructed by Samsung Heavy
Industries in South Korea. It has a low environmental footprint, high efficiency, storage capacity in
excess of 170,000m3 and peak regasification capacity of 750mmscfd. The christening of the FSRU took
place at the Geoje shipyard on Jan. 12, 2017. This is BW’s second FSRU project—the first being BW

Two years ago, after overcoming many challenges, Pakistan started LNG imports. It is currently
importing over 4.5 million tons per year. Today we are inaugurating the country’s second LNG
regasification terminal, which has a capacity to handle over 5 million tons of LNG per year.
I am pleased that BW, FOTCO, Trafigura and PGPC came together to develop this LNG terminal. It is a
world-class facility capable of handling the biggest LNG carriers. The brand new, state-of-the-art FSRU
used for this regasification terminal will result in greater efficiency and substantial savings in internal
gas usage.
With the commencement of supplies from this regasification terminal, a large part of the country’s
urgent need for gas will be met and the power sector will greatly benefit from clean and efficient
generation. Availability of clean burning, environment-friendly and comparatively inexpensive fuel will
boost the economy and make our exports more competitive. In addition, it will contribute to GDP
The Government of Pakistan is encouraging the setting up of LNG terminals and direct gas sale by the
private sector. I am pleased to learn that today PGPC and Trafigura have announced their
commitment to proceed with a second LNG terminal at Port Qasim. I have been informed that the two
PGPC regasification terminals, FSRUs, and gas delivery systems will represent a collective investment
of over $1 billion. This is a reflection of the industry’s confidence in the policies of the Government of
Pakistan.
Several other serious industry players are also planning to set up LNG terminals in the private sector.
Pakistan needs all of these terminals and more to meet its needs. It is the policy of the government to
provide a fair, balanced and attractive regulatory framework and transmission pipeline capacity to
enable third-party access in the gas system. Investment in these projects is being made entirely by
We see Pakistan’s demand for LNG growing to about 30 million tons per year by 2020 and the
Government of Pakistan’s target is to ensure availability of gas in any quantity to any consumer
anywhere in the country. I am grateful to the companies who have invested in this important national
project. I wish this project, the management of PGPC, and all its investors the very best. I am
confident that they will find Pakistan to be a welcoming investment destination where the government
facilitates and supports the operation and expansion of these vital infrastructure projects.
Mr. Sikandar Sultan Raja, Federal Secretary, Ministry of Energy (Petroleum Division):
The commissioning of Pakistan’s second LNG terminal represents a significant step forward for our
country’s energy security and for the global energy sector. This project is proof that Pakistan is
building a safe and secure future for our children. This terminal will increase the country’s LNG
regasification capacity to 1.2bcf and go a long way towards fulfilling the Government of Pakistan’s
vision of ensuring continuous and affordable energy to the people and to crucial sectors of our
economy. This project is a testament to the highest standards of probity, fairness, and transparency. I
It is with immense pleasure that we, FOTCO, announce the successful completion of the RLNG high-
pressure pipeline and measurement system for Pakistan’s second LNG terminal. The FOTCO pipeline
will relay RLNG from the PGPC jetty to the delivery point on the national gas grid through a 1.3-
kilometer subsea pipeline section, a 4-kilometer trestle-mounted section, and a 7-kilometer onshore
and underground section. FOTCO feels very proud to be an integral part of this energy infrastructure
project, which is of significant national importance. The pipeline has an inherent design capacity of
1.2bcfd; it will, therefore, also be available for the transmission of additional RLNG volumes from

With an estimated investment of about half a billion dollars by PGPC, BW, and FOTCO, this project is
evidence of the strong faith that investors, local and foreign, place in Pakistan and its economic
potential. PGPC is pleased to be working with BW, Trafigura and FOTCO on this facility. This milestone
project, awarded through an international competitive bidding process overseen by U.K.-based Galway
Group, will provide up to 600mmscfd of LNG storage and regasification services to state-owned PLTL,
at a tolling tariff of $0.4177/mmbtu, and another 90mmscfd of RLNG to private sector buyers.
PGPC and Trafigura are expeditiously developing another LNG terminal, which will also be located at
Mazhar Point, for the private sector and without any buyback guarantees from or financial exposure of
the government. The two LNG terminals alone will represent an investment of about $1 billion. PGPC’s
