an LNG terminal with regional scope pipelines or mid scale LNG pipelines or small scale LNG GNL Mejillones 4
GNLM, open access to regional/international pipelines 5
a regional hub - built step by step - terminal operating from 2010: USD 550 million of initial investment nominal regasification capacity 5,5 million Nm 3 /day of NG double access jetty available for berthing, unloading and ship-jetty-ship transfer on-shore tank - anti-seismic and gross capacity of 187.000 m 3 - USD 200 million of additional investment availability - no demurrage so far since COD - exceptional bay, almost 100% available - terminal equipments almost 100% available certified - by BG, BP, ENGIE - ISO 50.001 (+ others in process) USD 750 million total investment in order to give an open and reliable access to natural gas, in the North of Chile, with a long term regional vision. 6
potential development, consistent with a regional vision expansion of regasification capacity - project conducted to increase regasification capacity due to the incorporation of a fourth regas train. regasification capacity increase in 50% reaching 8,25 million Nm³/day. second on-shore tank for even more flexibility - available land - feasibility engineering under initial stage - increased operational flexibility to users - facilitating the development of LNG vessels cabotage - contributing to strategic energy reserves of the country (nb. photomontage of the second tank on the right) 7
GNLM and SING-SIC interconnection SING-SIC interconnection is an opportunity to current and future GNLM clients. a much larger energy market will be reachable, favoring the competitiveness and new actors entrance, including NCRE. any GenCo connected to the future grid will be able to participate in energy supply tenders. new CCPP projects will have better chances to be built [eg. Luz Minera CCPP (750 MW)]. 8
GNLM and energy transfer to Argentina Chile G. Norandino Bolivia energy exchange with Argentina is increasingly likely. it could be exchange of: - gas, through existing pipelines or - electricity, generated by gas in CCPP in Chile and transmitted through existing transmission line.

GNLM, operative to new ways of LNG distribution 11
GNLM, a hub with maritime services to the LNG industry ship-to-ship transfer - greatest experience worldwide in trans-shipments : LNG transfers between 2 vessels docked to the jetty/ GNLM operated under this mode for 4 years - available service for ships sized from 10.000 to 165.000 m 3 reloading of smaller size LNG vessels - from a vessel docked to the jetty or from the on-shore tank - to eventual small-medium scale distribution GNLM can facilitate the LNG access to different projects, from Punta Arenas to Arica, and much more 12
GNLM and the impact of the Panama Canal expansion with the Panama Canal expansion, operational from next year, the distance from US terminals and Trinidad & Tobago to GNLM will be reduced from approx. current 19 days to approx. 8 days of one-way trip. LNG terminal tolling fee for methane vessels crossing the Panama Canal is already known and involves significant savings in comparison to almost circumnavigating South America, depending on the daily charter rates. LNG transport through Panama Canal GNL Mejillones no more logistics uncertainty in winter time caused by the passage through the Magellan Canal or Cape Horn. location of this hub in northern Chile will allow to quickly unload large high-cost vessels, distributing then the LNG by national cabotage. the outstanding availability of Mejillones bay reduces weather uncertainty. 13
GNLM, a hub with LNG truck loading service LNG can then reach final consumers located out of the scope of existing pipelines (industrial companies, mining trucks, etc.). in order to facilitate the distribution of LNG by truck, a new delivery point was developed as a transitional solution, which is currently operational, with a capacity of 1.000 trucks/year. in order to address a potential future demand of up to 20.000 trucks/year, GNLM has already designed a complete truck loading project with TE. access to this service without necessarily hiring longterm capacity or being a TUA regas client. 14

a full open access terminal with public information TUA contracts, additional services (spot slot, truck loading, etc.) GNLM Community regas tolling fees (TUA tariffs) www.gnlm.cl approved vessels annual delivery program of LNG vessels available capacity 16
GNLM, a top flexible commercial offer we facilitate gas exchanges among clients at GNLM facilities: inside the on-shore tank at the city gate (delivery point to pipelines) at the delivery point into cistern-trucks at the delivery point into vessels moored at the jetty our regasification service includes wide flexibility: guaranteed flexibility in favor of the client (>30% of contracted capacity) additional sendout flexibility subject to availability our commercial program management allows: analyzing the incorporation of spot cargos at any time during a current year gas delivery at different delivery points: pipelines, vessels or cistern-trucks 17

GNLM and team, encouraging the gas development in the region no accident in terminal operations from day 1. motivated personnel, GNLM is a great place to work among medium companies in Chile: n 4 in 2015 n 10 in 2014 19
