OLT Offshore LNG Toscana has published on its website the procedure for the receipt of quantities of liquefied natural gas required for the cool-down and gas-up activities of the FSRU Toscana terminal, which are necessary for cooling the LNG storage tanks and all cryogenic parts of the plant and to put in gas the Terminal.
OLT aims to start the tender procedure to identify a subject able to discharge 30,000 mcliq of LNG (equivalent to about 200,000 MWh).
The cool-down and gas-up activities will be carried out after the return of the FSRU Toscana terminal in Livorno and are preparatory to the resumption of Regasification Service.
The Terminal, which has just completed extraordinary maintenance activities at shipyard in Marseille, will return to its site off the Tuscan coast on October 2 and will be reconnected to the National Gas Pipeline Network. It is expected that the resume of the regasification service is compatible with the scheduling of the first commercial slot planned on November 24, 2024.
Those who are interested in the tender procedure can send their economic offer and supporting documents on October 10, 2024 from 09:00 am to 12:00 pm to asta.gas@oltoffshore.it.

The Terminal, moored about 22 km off the coast between Livorno and Pisa, is connected to the national grid through a 36.5 km long pipeline, operated and managed by Snam, of which: about 29.5 km at sea, 5 km in the floodway and the remaining 2 km on dry land. FSRU Toscana has a maximum authorized regasification capacity of 5 billion Sm3 a year.
