Floating LNG Import Terminals (FSRUs) – The mechanics
An FSRU is moored close to the market
The LNG is transferred to the FSRU from an incoming LNG carrier moored
side by side
The FSRU regasifies the LNG and sends high-pressure natural gas to
shore

Project start-up June 2010
GDF Suez Cape Ann GDF Suez Neptune
Both FSRUs originally intended for the Neptune DWP project offshore Massachusetts
As the price of gas in U.S. dropped, the trade did not make sense commercially;
GDF SUEZ Cape Ann is now operating as an FSRU in Tianjin, China
GDF SUEZ Neptune is currently operating as an LNGC
Cape Ann first and only FSRU in China Contract between GDF Suez and CNOOC – Höegh LNG owns and operate FSRU In operation from October 2013
