据世界天然气网1月25日消息 对直布罗陀政府来说，这是一个里程碑，因为其第一次使用液化天然气作为燃料产生的电力供应到电网系统，虽然只是短暂的30分钟。
教育、遗产、环境、能源和气候变化部的一份声明显示，5号发动机发电并向配电系统供电5兆瓦。
声明称，这是对其中一台双燃料发动机进行的第一次测试，调试将在未来几周内继续进行。
本月早些时候，直布罗陀测试了其小型液化天然气进口和再气化设施的卸货作业，当时液化天然气运输船Coral Methal在North Mole的新终端演练了其靠泊作业。
值得注意的是，壳牌正在根据2016年与政府签订的合同开发直布罗陀的小型液化天然气设施。
该设施有五个总容量为5000立方米的储罐和一个小型液化天然气运输船码头，未来可能在该设施进行液化天然气加注作业。
再气化装置将由壳牌子公司Gasnor运营。

Gibraltar feeds LNG-powered electricity to distribution system
The government of Gibraltar hit a milestone as the first electricity produced by using LNG as fuel was supplied to the national grid, if Engine No5 generated power and fed 5 Mw of electricity into the distribution system, a statement by the ministry of education, heritage, environment, energy and climate change reads.
This was the first of the tests to Earlier this month, Gibraltar tested the unloading procedures at its small-scale LNG import and regasification facility, when LNG carrier Coral Methane ‘rehearsed its berthing procedures at the new terminal at the end of the North Mole.’
To remind, Shell is developing Gibraltar’s small-scale LNG facility under a contract signed with the government in 2016.
The facility has five storage tanks with a total capacity of 5000 cubic meters and a jetty for small-scale LNG carriers, with potential for LNG bunkering operations at the facility in the future.
The regasification unit will be operated by Shell’s unit Gasnor.
