He said a government feasibility study concluded that “with the existing infrastructure and simultaneous operations, Sines could transfer to central and northern Europe up to 10 billion cubic metres (353 billion cu ft) of LNG annually” within six to 12 months.
That amount, double Portugal’s own natural gas consumption, could increase in the longer term if required, he added.
“Some countries have expressed interest in evaluating this possibility, and technical contacts are taking place,” he said of the plans to ship LNG on to other European states, like Germany and Poland, although he did not elaborate about those contacts.
