Middle East terminal developer Bahrain LNG is to charter out its dedicated LNG floating storage unit for short-term trading.

In a statement, Bahrain LNG said the 173,400-cbm Bahrain Spirit (built 2018) is sending out the last of its commissioning cargo so that it can “redeploy on short-term trade as intended”.

Bahrain LNG said the mechanical construction and commissioning of the terminal has been completed.
