The scope includes the development of technical documentation for the selection of the General Contractor for the Terminal Expansion Program, i.e. the construction of the second jetty, the third process storage tank and the LNG-to-rail reloading installation together with a railway siding.
Paweł Jakubowski, CEO at Polskie LNG: "Tractebel’s main asset are the experts employed in 33 countries offices around the world having impressive experience in advising on energy projects. It is also worth noting that Tractebel will be obliged to consider the need to ensure uninterrupted operations of the Terminal throughout the entire course of the Expansion Program implementation."

As an Engineering & Consultancy Company in LNG, working with key players in the world is essential for Tractebel’s sustainability.
