Lng-Sakura

The first shipment of liquefied natural gas from Dominion Energy’s Cove Point LNG export terminal on the U.S. East Coast has completed its transit of the Expanded Panama Canal as it heads for Japan. The Dominion Cove Point terminal in Maryland is the second U.S. LNG export terminal to come online after Cheniere’s Sabine Pass began exporting American-produced LNG in 2016. The Bahamas-flagged LNG Sakura left the Cove Point terminal on April 22 carrying the “first of many” cargoes to be shipped from the East Coast terminal to Japan. http://gcaptain.com/ship-carrying-lng-from-u-s-east-coast-to-japan-transits-the-panama-canal/
