KN Energies successfully completes first virtual liquefaction operation of biomethane

In Lithuania, over the weekend, the first virtual liquefaction operation of biomethane was successfully completed at the Klaipėda liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal operated by the international energy terminal operator KN Energies AB.
The operation was conducted in cooperation with partners: bioLNG was loaded onto the Coral Energy vessel chartered by Nordic energy company Gasum OY (the buyer), while virtual biomethane liquefaction at the terminal was carried out by Norwegian energy company Equinor ASA (the seller).

This service will enable biomethane producers and suppliers to effectively integrate their operations into the LNG logistics chain and to market gas produced both in Lithuania and across Europe – gas that is available within the interconnected European gas network.
