AFRY, a Swedish engineering and advisory company, has been selected to provide technical advisory services for a substantial 1.5 GW liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in Vietnam. This initiative encompasses both an integrated floating LNG (FLNG) terminal and a new gas-fired power plant. The project is designed to expand LNG infrastructure within Southeast Asia, supporting the region's growing energy demands.
For freight forwarders and logistics professionals, this project signifies future opportunities for breakbulk and project cargo movements. The construction phase will require the transport of large, heavy components for both the FLNG terminal and the power plant, including turbines, generators, and modular units. This will likely involve specialized heavy-lift vessels and potentially complex inland logistics for oversized cargo. Forwarders should anticipate increased demand for project logistics services in Vietnam and the broader Southeast Asian region as such energy infrastructure projects progress.
