BP to Deliver LNG to Sempra in Mexico
- Share via
BP, Europe’s biggest oil company, and partners in Indonesia’s Tangguh liquefied natural gas project will start to deliver as much as 3.7 million metric tons of the fuel to Sempra Energy in Mexico in 2008, Indonesia’s oil and gas regulator said.
BP and San Diego-based Sempra have signed a 20-year sales contract. The LNG, which is natural gas chilled to liquid form so that it can be transported on a ship, will be delivered to Sempra’s planned terminal near Ensenada in Baja California. There, the LNG will be returned to gas form for use in power plants.
