Stakeholders

In consultation with stakeholders, TotalEnergies carried out studies for the implementation of a new liquefied natural gas import terminal in France. The port of Le Havre was selected because it had the best criteria for the success of the project: infrastructure of sufficient capacity, ability to accommodate the floating terminal and the LNG carriers that will supply it, recognized operational know-how, and proximity to the national gas transport network allowing a rapid connection of the terminal.

The installation, connection and operation of the floating LNG import terminal in Le Havre are divided between the following main players:

Close and regular cooperation between these actors will ensure the success of the project under satisfactory conditions of safety and security.
