Project components

The project comprises 3 distinct components:

3. The two sections of the natural gas pipeline transmission system, i.e.:

• The subsea section: 24 km and the onshore section: 4 km

connecting the offshore terminal to the Greek National Gas Grid (NNGS)

1. The floating LNG Storage and Regasification unit:

• An LNG vessel with mounted regasification functionality (SRV)

2. The permanent offshore structures, including:

• The Mooring system

• The Flex Risers and the Pipeline End Manifold (PLEM), transmitting gas from the floating unit to the subsea pipelines
