The main countries of origin of the gas were Peru, Trinidad and Tobago, Norway and Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>BBG came into operation in August 2003 and until 2012, 469 liquefied natural gas carriers with 60.4 million cubic metres had berthed in the Port of Bilbao. In those nine years, BBG regasified a total of 403,789 GWh.<\/p>\n<p>At present, the company \u2013 in which ENAGAS Transporte SAU, the Basque Energy Entity and REFF are shareholders \u2013 is building its third liquefied natural gas storage tank, with a 150,000-cubic metre LNG capacity, which will thus capacity increase to 450,000 cubic metres.
