1 LNG Logistics A complete LNG supply solution along waterways

2 Project outlook 1. Context: a European Directive 2. LNG logistics: concept & goals 3. Partnership 4. Project description 2

3 1 Context: a European Directive Directive 2014/94/EU on the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure: Considering that A core network of refuellingpoints for LNG at maritime and inland ports should be available at least by the end of 2025 and 2030, respectively. Refuellingpoints for LNG include, inter alia, LNG terminals, tanks, mobile containers, bunker vessels and barges. Member States should ensure anappropriate distribution system between storage stations and refuellingpoints for LNG. Member States should ensure that refuellingpoints accessible to the publicare put in place, at least along the existing TEN-T Core Network, within adequate distances taking into account the minimum range of LNG heavy-duty motor vehicles. As an indication, the necessary average distance between refuellingpoints should be approximately 400 km. 3

4 2-LNG Logistics : concept & goals Goals to achieve: define a global supply solution responding to European Directives regarding barge + terminal network develop studies, to validate basis and to select technologies for key components: terminals, arms, LNG containment design a complete solution around one wide scale axis: Mediterranean Sea to Rhône Saône Based on a modular design Establishing standards for future exportation to whole Europe Taking into account required flexibility to adapt the concept further 4

5 2-LNG Logistics : concept & goals Main Components Sea LNG terminals loading facilities Unload large LNG Carriers Feed LNG Barges LNG Barges Non propelled Transport & storage Inland LNG terminals, min. every 400km, to receive from barges, to temporarily store LNG and to feed: LNG inland waterway vessels Heavy duty motor vehicles Could be adapted to GNC for tourism vehicles Connections Barge Sea / Inland terminals Inland terminals heavy duty motor vehicles 5

6 2-LNG Logistics : concept & goals Concept A Green alternative to European directive of LNG supply network compared to tanker trucks A LNG supply solution deployable to any waterway A group of complementary companies Performances Up to 800 t LNG capacity per barge 4100 km of wide gauge waterways just in France => potentially 10 small terminals in France Low quay occupation by using barges as storage solution 6

7 3- Partnership TL&Associés (2003): consulting in transport & logistics, wide experience in mounting/coordinating R&D innovation projects d2m engineering (founded 1986): wide experience in naval architecture and marine engineering: offshore Oil&Gas and MRE, naval, ports and terminals Romane (2005): inventor of a semi submersible barge loader concept ( large experience of project development in Europe and Africa Cryogenic containment : membrane LNG tank equipment supplier Wärtsila(1834): World leader in LNG technologies CFT: ship-owner experienced in inland industrial shipping GAZOCEAN: seagoing LNG Carrier operator, large experience on safety and operations of LNG transfers ENGIE: French leader in electricity and gas supply Integration of a High Level Advisory Group (HLAG) including private (ports, logistics association or clusters, shipowners, chargers, ) and public organisations (IWW authorities, regional authorities, ), led by Voies Navigables de France/ Rhône-Saône unit 7

8 3- Partnership Roles & responsibilities TL&A: admin coordination, safety & danger study calculations exploitation & business plan, dissemination d2m engineering : scientific coordination, barge design and cost estimate (specifications, structure, layout, stability, equipment, safety, tank integration) Romane: design review, logistics concept, exploitation & business plan Cryogenic containment: LNG bunkering technologies Wärtsila: LNG technologies CFT: inland LNG operations and involved in maritime LNG operation GAZOCEAN : terminal designs review, safety of operations and operational need specification ENGIE: expert assessment in energetic field 8
