Shell eyes floating LNG units for Iraq, Egypt

ABU DHABI, Nov 5 (Reuters) - Royal Dutch Shell is studying the use of floating liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals to ship gas produced in Iraq and Egypt, a senior Shell executive said on Wednesday.

The terminals would each have capacity to export two million tonnes per year of LNG, John Mills, Shell executive vice president for gas and power in North Africa, the Middle East and South Asia, told reporters at an energy conference. (Reporting by Luke Pachymuthu; writing by Simon Webb)
