Czech utility CEZ says first LNG shipment to reach new Dutch terminal on September 19

(Reuters) - Czech utility CEZ will receive the first shipment to a new Dutch liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal opened on Thursday on Sept. 19 and expects eight shipments by the end of the year, Chief Executive Daniel Benes said.

Benes said in a briefing at the Eemshaven terminal shown live on television that the company had already bought a second shipment on the spot market and planned to take 30 shipments a year, bringing 3 B cubic metres annually to the Czech Republic, around one third of its consumption.
