#LNG trends @ Gate: -the many FSRUs starting up in Europe (DE, NL, FR, IT, FI) do not yet have an impact on our send-out: 14.35 BCM in 2023 versus 14.39 in 2022, probably the highest in the EU (design was 12). Once again glad to help in keeping the lights on, heating our homes and supplying the industry. My guess is we will continue to have busy years ahead of us. - a record number of vessels called at Gate: 328 guests. -recovery of LNG as a transport fuel as prices became competitive again: a record number of 8789 trucks loaded and our dedicated small scale J3 had a record number of 151 vessels, loading close to 900.000 m3 of LNG. As EU shipping now participates in ETS one can only anticipate a further increase at this jetty. -our many projects (truckloading bay 4/5, extra send-out and especially tank 4 (picture)) to further support LNG developments. Transition is on everyone’s mind, also as LNG. Looking ahead we work on developing an additional dedicated small scale jetty 4 and potentially a multiproduct tank 5, all also with the transition in mind. Big thank you to the customers, authorities, contractors, colleagues and all LNG professionals involved. A safe 2024 for everyone.
Great report and achievements Stefaan, makes me proud and also great to see Tank #4 finally making physical progress ! Happy to learn that you’re still with the Gate Family. All the best Branko
Well worded. So Gate becomes the essential part in the energy chain as originally envisaged. Thanks to the Gate team and the customers Gate becomes the true Gas (not only LNG) Access To Europe. All can be very proud on this achievement. Dirk (one of the founding fathers)

Congratulations to all the team what a magnificent achievement
