Access to the Grain LNG Terminal

Long term contracts sold under Open Season process

Has led to 6 primary customers Has led to 6 primary customers Plus 7th (Cheniere) under Gaz de France swap deal

A number of third parties have used the terminal via tried

and tested pstream trading arrangements and tested upstream trading arrangements

Bi-lateral deals Discussions can start months in advance of slot window Right up to a few days in advance Typically free on board cargo or sold at the rail to the primary

shipper pp

Around 20% of cargoes delivered to Grain have been on a bilateral

basis

Examples from trade press: GdF, DistriGas, Gazprom
