STENA EXHIBITS AT
GASTECH 2022
Stena’s innovative gas sector services and solutions were recently promoted at Gastech, the world’s largest gas exhibition and conference.
For well over a decade Stena has operated in LNG shipping, with Stena Bulk operating three LNG carriers and Northern Marine managing gas carriers belonging to both Stena and external clients.
In more recent years a range of additional gas sector solutions ranging from jettyless gas import/export terminals, gas to power terminals and small-scale LNG ship solutions have been added to Stena’s offering.
Taking place in Milan between the 5th and 8th of September, Gastech welcomed all the sector’s major companies and an international delegation of industry professionals to the Fiera Milano Exhibition and Conference Centre at a time when rising gas prices and nation states’ gas supplies were making headline news across Europe.
Eighteen Stena employees from Northern Marine Management, Stena Bulk, Stena Power & LNG Solutions and Tritec Marine welcomed visitors to the stand to inform of the wide-ranging gas service solutions offered across the Group.
Philip Fullerton, Managing Director, Northern Marine Group, said: “Exhibiting at Gastech 2022 alongside our Stena colleagues gave us the opportunity to better expose the market to our experience, competencies, and wide-ranging solutions.
“Northern Marine has been operating in the Gas sector for many years and today half of Northern Marine’s managed Fleet of vessels are carrying liquified gas cargoes.
“Our gas fleet itself is very diverse, including vessel types such as VLGC, mid-sized, Ethylene and handysize LPG, coupled with Steam, Tri-fuel, MGA and XDF LNG carriers and an LNG floating storage unit.
“We have several newbuilds recently enter management, including dual fuel VLGCs that are the first in the industry to be built with LGIP engines.
“Alongside gas carrier management we provide engineering consultancy services including new build supervision and vessel modifications, with Tritec Marine now also offering innovative small-scale LNG delivery and fuelling solutions to the international market, via their Energy Express and SAFE Bunker solutions.
“Well done to all the team for creating a first-class experience for visitors to our Stena stand at Gastech 2022.”
Virtual Reality experiences offered visitors the opportunity to transport themselves on to Stena Power & LNG Solutions’ jettyless terminal assets including the Jettyless Floating Terminal (JFT) and Self-installing Regas Platform (SRP).

Göran Hermansson, LNG General Manager, Stena Bulk and Chairperson, Stena Power & LNG Solutions, said: “It was a great pleasure to exhibit at Gastech 2022 alongside colleagues from across the group at our dedicated Stena stand.
“The presence of our experienced engineers, commercial specialists, infrastructure advisors and ship managers at this event was an effective way to demonstrate to potential new clients our wide-ranging competencies across the gas value chain.
“It was also a real pleasure to work and socialise with Stena colleagues from other companies in a face-to-face setting at such a dynamic event and beautiful city.”
Stena Power & LNG Solutions jettyless gas import/export and Gas to Power solutions can fill the demand currently required in Europe and other global regions for fast to market and cost-effective solutions.
Göran added: “Our assets, which also includes floating power, can be built in a much shorter time than fixed jetty / power plant infrastructure and are also much cheaper to build. These were the key advantages we were able to explain to our visitors at Gastech 2022.”
