Singapore-based LNG Alliance Pte Ltd., sponsor of the proposed Amigo LNG export project in Mexico, signed a long-term offtake agreement with Malaysia’s E&H Energy SDN BHD, the companies said.
Under the deal, Amigo LNG – a 7.8 million metric tons/year (mmty) liquefaction terminal envisioned for the Port of Guaymas in Sonora state on Mexico’s Pacific Coast – would supply 3.6 mmty of liquefied natural gas to E&H Energy for the Malaysian market over 20 years beginning in the third quarter of 2027.
E&H Energy operates LNG and compressed natural gas facilities in Johor, and in 2018 became one of Malaysia’s first private companies to be awarded an LNG import license under the country’s gas market liberalization. “The future outlook of the Malaysian gas market is positive, driven by increasing demand for gas, particularly in the Malaysian power sector,” said LNG Alliance.
