Summary Information
- Ownership: Bahía de Bizkaia Gas
- Enagas, the Basque Energy Board (Ente Vasco de la Energ a — EVE), and Iberdrola
- Website: http://www.bahiasdebizkaia.com/
- Location: Bilbao, Spain
- Capacity: million tons/annum
- Status: In Operation
Brief Description
- The project consists of an 800 megawatt combined cycle gas turbine power plant, a 2.75 billion cubic meter a year (bcma) regasification facility, LNG import terminal and a total of 300,000 cubic meter storage capacity.
Technical Details
- Storage capacity: 2 * 150,000 m3
- Unloading capacity:
- Initially jetty could accomodate tankers of 135,000 m3 but can now receive LNG carriers up to 270,000 m3
- Send out capacity: gas delivery rates can be up to 800,000m3 per hour
- Vaporizers: 4 ORVs of 200,000 Ncu.m/h, 1 SCV of 135,000 Ncu.m/h.
- Constructor:
- **Sofregaz:** Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Commissioning
- **Saipem:** Marine Works: LNG offloading jetty with mooring facilities
Ongoing Projects/Project Status
- There are plans to construct a third tank
Suppliers / Customers
- Suppliers: When the Bilbao regas and power facility was first conceived, the idea was that it would be supplied with LNG from Trinidad. However it now receives gas from a wide variety of sources
- Customers: A natural gas powered combined cycle electrical power plant, with a power output of 800 MW was constructed as part of the complex
History
- 2000 - The project was sanctioned by the 4 original partners
- 2003 - First phase of the Terminal with capacity of 3.5bcma of gas was commissioned
- 2004 - An expansion to double its capacity to 7bcma wA completed
- 2008 - Permission was granted for larger vessels
- 2009 - Enagás buys 25% of Bahía de Bizkaia Gas from BP
Other Information
- When seawater is used for warming the LNG, its temperature is lowered. Conversely, the seawater used to condense the steam in the power plant becomes warmer.
- Normally these would be on two separate circuits, but in Bilbao there is a common cooling water circuit. In effect the seawater is raised by 5°C in the power plant, then passes to the LNG vaporisers where it is is cooled down by 3°C.
- This means there is one seawater intake and one seawater discharge, reducing construction costs, and seawater is returned to the ocean with only marginal temperature rise.’
