Singapore selects LNG importers shortlist

Singapore’s Energy Market Authority (EMA) has selected its shortlist of four companies for the second stage of its request for proposals to import LNG into Singapore, The Business Times reported.

BG Singapore Gas Marketing, Pavilion Gas, Sembcorp Industries and Shell Eastern Petroleum were shortlisted, and will "negotiate and enter into binding commitments with potential LNG buyers", before submitting final proposals to the EMA in early 2016.

The authority will then select two companies for the three-year franchise to import and sell LNG in Singapore.
