Aspects environnementaux
The Grain LNG terminal expansion phase III was identified by the promoter and the competent authority to classify under Annex II of the EIA Directive 85/337/EEC and its amendments. Due to the size of the development, its location relatively close to nature protection areas and the potentially hazardous impacts related to natural gas the promoter has carried out an EIA as stipulated by the criteria defined in the directive and in the national regulation for such projects. Planning permission was granted from the Medway Council.
Passation des marchés
A private sector type procurement approach was followed for the Project, which will be implemented under a lump sum EPC contract, awarded in May this year after international tendering among three pre-qualified companies/consortia.
