According to shipment data by state-owned Perupetro, during March, the 4.4 mtpa LNG plant sent three shipments to South Korea and one each to Taiwan and Spain.
The shipments loaded onboard the LNG carriers Maran Gas Amphipolis, Pan Americas, Pan Europe, Alicante Knutsen, and Paris Knutsen equal about 374,282 tonnes, the data shows.
These five LNG cargoes, which were loaded at the Peru LNG plant last month, compare to five LNG cargoes in March 2024 and four cargoes in February 2025.
Peru LNG loaded five cargoes in January this year.
For 2025, Peru LNG estimates 60 loads equivalent to 218 TBtus, a spokesman for operator Hunt Oil told LNG Prime in January.
The spokesman said that in 2024 “there were 57 vessels equivalent to 205 TBtus.” This is some 3.98 million tons of LNG.
In 2023, Peru LNG loaded 55 vessels. This equals 190.3 TBtus (trillion British thermal units) or about 3.69 million tons of LNG, a rise from 51 vessels or 179.05 TBtus in 2022.
LNG giant Shell holds 20 percent in Peru LNG and offtakes all the volumes.
US-based Hunt operates the LNG plant with a 35 percent stake, while Japan’s Marubeni has 10 percent in the LNG terminal operator.
Last year, MidOcean Energy, the LNG unit of US-based energy investor EIG, completed the purchase of an additional 15 percent interest in Peru LNG from Hunt Oil.
MidOcean’s interest in Peru LNG now stands at 35 percent.
