Eni Loads 500th Cargo from Egypt's Damietta LNG Facility

Damietta LNG facility has successfully produced and loaded its 500th LNG cargo from start-up of operations in 2005. Since its restart in 2021, Damietta LNG facility exported 7.2 MT of LNG.

During year 2022, Damietta LNG produced and exported approximately 4 million tons of LNG, which considered the largest volume in its almost 20-year history, making it the first LNG terminal in Egypt in terms of LNG exports and contributing to Egypt’s role as an energy hub in the Mediterranean. Around 60% of the total shipments from Damietta plant were delivered to Europe.

The Damietta LNG plant, which re-commenced production in 2021, is operated through JV between Eni and EGAS. The facility plays a pivotal role in Eni’s strategy, aimed at ensuring gas supply security and diversification, while at the same time contributing to the energy transition.
