Market test for Alexandroupolis LNG terminal successfully completed

The binding phase of the market test for the reservation of capacity from the floating liquefied natural gas terminal near the Greek town of Alexandroupolis on the Aegean coast has been successfully completed. Greek, international companies and end-users have confirmed their interest, the company Gastrade has reported. The binding offers are for a period of up to 15 years and have reached a volume of 2.6 billion cubic metres annually. 

The liquefied natural gas at the Alexandroupolis LNG terminal will be re-gasified and delivered to Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia and other markets in Southeast Europe. The quantities will pass through Bulgaria via the gas interconnector with Greece. 
The Bulgarian state-owned company Bulgartransgaz has already acquired 20% of the Alexandroupolis terminal.
