Singapore LNG Corporation (SLNG) has commenced construction of a new LNG Lorry Loading Facility at its terminal on Jurong Island. The groundbreaking ceremony, held today, was attended by SLNG Chairman Gan Seow Kee, CEO Leong Wei Hung, and representatives from China International Water & Electric Corp (S) Pte Ltd (CIWE), the project’s engineering, procurement, and construction company.
The facility, set to be completed by Q4 2026, will feature two loading bays designed to accommodate 40-footer lorries, doubling the capacity of the current facility, which only supports 20-footer lorries. This expansion aims to meet the growing demand for trucked LNG in Singapore. The facility will also include hard loading arms optimised for single-operator use, enhancing operational efficiency by reducing manpower needs.
Leong Wei Hung, CEO of SLNG, stated, “The new LNG lorry loading facility reinforces our commitment to expanding and diversifying LNG distribution channels across Singapore. As demand for trucked LNG continues to grow, this facility plays a crucial role in supporting the nation’s energy transition goals.”
The development of this facility is part of SLNG’s broader strategy to support Singapore’s energy transition and enhance the flexibility, reliability, and sustainability of LNG supply. As the country moves towards cleaner energy solutions, the facility will play a vital role in meeting the evolving energy needs of Singapore and its surrounding markets.
