Adriatic LNG Terminal (ALNG) received its milestone 500th cargo, delivered by RasGas Company Limited’s (RasGas) LNG tanker, Al Marrouna, on February 21, 2017.
A celebratory event was held at the terminal to mark the occasion, with ALNG Managing Director, Suresh Jagadesan, boarding the Al Marrouna to meet with the marine team and vessel crew.
