New Zealand eyes new LNG import facility as dry-year gap looms

It is expected to be operational in 2028.

New Zealand is progressing with two providers with a Request for Proposal to deliver a liquefied natural gas (LNG) import facility, aiming to cover the country’s dry-year gap.

In a press release, the New Zealand government said it intends to sign a contract with a preferred provider this year, with the facility expected to be operational in 2028.

The LNG import facility is a key part of the government's Securing Affordable Energy plan, providing the physical backup New Zealand needs to get through a dry year.
