 June 25th, 2020 

German LNG Terminal GmbH has selected the Spanish-German partnership COBRA Instalaciones y Servicios S.A., SENER Ingeniería y sistemas S.A.and TGE Gas Engineering GmbH as an exclusive candidate for the final phase of the tender procedure for the EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) contract.  This final phase will consist of a comprehensive value-improvement exercise and a detailed price actualization to make the project more cost efficient and aims at concluding a binding EPC contract by the end of 2020. It is expected that the detailed design and engineering work, necessary to develop purchase orders of long-lead products, can then be started soon after the finalization of the contract. German LNG started the international prequalification process for the selection of an EPC contractor in June 2019. The selection of a potential partner for the final development of the EPC contract is a further milestone for the project. At the same time, German LNG Terminal is in the process of completing the permit application for the planning of the port infrastructure, including the waterside facilities. The selected partnership members have extensive long-term experience in electricity, oil and gas projects worldwide. Between them they share a design and construction history of involvement in a number of LNG terminal projects, such as Sines (Portugal) / Sagunto and Bahía Bizcaya (Spain) / Gate (The Netherlands) / Dunkerque (France) / and Zeebrugge (Belgium).
