“The project will supply natural gas for power use with the impending depletion of the Malampaya gas field by 2024. With its development and operation, the Shell LNG Project will be able to address the anticipated deficit in electrical generation capacity and avoid adverse impacts to economic growth within the region,” the company said in documents submitted to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.

SEPH conceptualized the LNG terminal in 2013 for a different project, but with Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corp.’s refinery closure and conversion to an import facility, it saw the opportunity to revive the LNG project.SEPH’s updated LNG project components consist of a floating storage re-gasification unit with a capacity of 3.8 metric tons per annum, conversion of the jetty, subsea and onshore gas pipeline and pressure reduction metering station.

The pipeline will tie-in to the Malampaya Onshore Gas Plant. It will share facilities such as the onshore control room, substation, access roads and drainage system with the PSPC facility.The project will rise within the PSPC import facility in Barangays Libjo, Malitam and Tabangao Ambulong in Batangas City.

It said the potential use of natural gas for transportation and shipping would lessen the Philippines’ dependence on conventional fuel and promote the use of natural gas, which has significantly lower emissions.
