With the commissioning of its second floating import terminal for liquefied natural gas (LNG) in Wilhelmshaven on May 26, 2025, the federally owned Deutsche Energy Terminal GmbH (DET) completed another key project under the LNG Acceleration Act.

Including planning and approval, the terminal was brought online in approximately two and a half years. Despite significant engineering challenges, the project partners ENGIE Deutschland GmbH and Tree Energy Solutions B.V. (TES), commissioned by DET, required only about half the average time required for comparable large-scale LNG projects. DET and its project partners were supported during construction by the Gasfin Group, which will assume on-site terminal management in the future.
