Argentina to bring in second LNG liquefaction vessel in 2028

The ship, named MKII, joins another vessel chartered by Southern Energy, Hili Episeyo, that is expected to start up in 2027.

“Together, the two ships should be able to produce six million tonnes of LNG annually, equal to 27 million cubic metres of natural gas,” Southern Energy said in a statement.

Southern Energy is owned by a consortium including Argentina’s state energy producer YPF, Golar LNG and others.
