BAKU, Azerbaijan, Oct.21

By Leman Zeynalova – Trend:

The gas network of Spanish Enagas company has operated at maximum technical and commercial availability and, as of 30 September, the contracted capacity of the storage facilities has reached almost 100 percent of the available supply, Trend reports with reference to the company.

The companies in which Enagás holds shares also continue to implement their coronavirus Contingency Plans and to operate normally, contributing to the security of supply in the countries in which they operate.

Enagás said that thanks to the implementation of a strict COVID-19 Contingency Plan and the commitment and effort of the company's professionals, the entire system has operated fully normally and flexibly despite the adverse circumstances, without any labour, technical or operational incidents.

“In the first nine months of 2020, the output of the regasification plants rose 4 percent compared to the same period last year. In addition, a total of 190 LNG ships were unloaded in the plants, a 2 percent increase in LNG volume compared to the same period in 2019.

“At the closure of the third quarter of 2020, conventional demand for natural gas in Spain (including industrial and domestic-commercial) maintains the progressive recovery that began at the end of May and reaches similar levels to those of the months prior to the COVID-19 crisis.

Total natural gas demand in Spain is forecasted to reach around 353 TWh at the end of the year, higher than 2018 figure,” reads the report.
