GNL DEL PLATA

  • Latitude: 1.233813
  • Longitude: 103.6715
  • Offshore Terminal in Bahamas

Location: Bahamas

Until October 2021, there is no widely recognized marine port by the name "GNL DEL PLATA" in the Bahamas. It's possible that you may be referring to a specific terminal or a newly established or lesser-known facility that has not been documented in major maritime databases or resources until now.

If "GNL DEL PLATA" refers to a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facility, "GNL" denotes "Gas Natural Licuado" in Spanish. However, it would be unusual for an LNG terminal in the Bahamas to have a Spanish name unless it is owned or operated by a Spanish-speaking company, or there is some historical or cultural linkage.

That said, here are some general characteristics and specifications you might expect from a typical LNG marine port:

  1. Berthing Facilities:

    • Tankers: The port would typically accommodate LNG tankers of different sizes, often ranging from smaller size carriers (~100 meters in length) to large LNG carriers (up to 300 meters or more).
    • Draft: The depth of water (draft) for such ports is generally quite significant, often exceeding 12 meters, to allow for the safe docking and undocking of LNG carriers.
  2. Storage:

    • Large LNG storage tanks capable of holding vast amounts of liquefied natural gas at cryogenic temperatures (-162°C).
  3. Loading and Unloading Systems:

    • Specially designed loading arms and safety systems for the efficient transfer of LNG.
    • Safety measures such as Emergency Shutdown Systems (ESD) to handle any potential issues during the transfer process.
  4. Regasification and Distribution:

    • Facilities often include regasification units if the site also distributes natural gas to local or regional networks.
    • Pipelines or additional terminals for further distribution.
  5. Safety and Security:

    • High levels of safety protocols due to the hazardous nature of LNG.
    • Security measures such as surveillance, restricted access zones, and emergency response strategies.
  6. Environmental Considerations:

    • Management systems to minimize environmental impacts, such as measures to control emissions, spillage containment systems, and waste management protocols.

If you are looking for specific details about "GNL DEL PLATA," you may need to consult directly with local maritime authorities in the Bahamas, shipping companies, or specific terminal operators who might be able to provide up-to-date and detailed information on such a facility. Additionally, maritime publications, port directories, or official websites of relevant shipping companies may offer the latest data on any recent developments.
