Philippines’ First Gen issues tender seeking second LNG cargo

Philippine power producer First Gen Corp. issued a tender seeking a second cargo of liquefied natural gas (LNG) for its gas-fired power plants in Batangas province.

The company is seeking a cargo on a delivered-ex-ship (DES) basis to be delivered between Nov. 25 and Dec. 25, it said in a statement.

The LNG cargo is to be loaded into the BW Batangas, First Gen’s floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) that took delivery of its commissioning cargo in September.

The tender closes on Nov. 15.
