Planta de Regasificación de Sagunto, S.A. (SAGGAS)

Planta de Regasificación de Sagunto, S.A. (SAGGAS) is a Spanish company that owns and operates the LNG regasification terminal at Sagunto, in the Camp de Morvedre comarca of the Valencia region. The plant receives liquefied natural gas (LNG) by methane tanker, regasifies it and injects the natural gas into Spain's basic pipeline network. Saggas describes the facility as a key energy infrastructure thanks to its strategic location on the Mediterranean arc, close to gas-producing countries in Africa and the Middle East. The company is a Sociedad Anónima whose shareholders are Enagás Transporte, Osaka Gas and Oman Oil Holdings Spain. This ownership structure combines Spanish gas transmission expertise with Japanese and Omani energy interests. Saggas has marked twenty years of operation, describing two decades of "advancing together" and supplying needed energy. Beyond regasification, Saggas has developed services such as bioLNG loading and has adhered to the UNEP OGMP 2.0 initiative, committing to reduce methane emissions. The company also emphasises environmental responsibility and a commitment to the economic and social development of the Camp de Morvedre area. It participates in sector standardisation work, including the UNE 192011-7:2022 standard on regulatory inspection of pressure equipment at LNG terminals, alongside BBG, Enagás and Reganosa. As part of the gas chain, the Sagunto plant covers unloading, loading, storage, regasification and dispatch of natural gas. Its Mediterranean location makes it a relevant asset for Spain's energy security and for the broader process of decarbonisation, in which natural gas is presented as a key energy source.

Planta de Regasificación de Sagunto, S.A. (SAGGAS) is the company that owns and operates the LNG regasification plant at Sagunto, on Spain's Mediterranean coast. The plant forms part of what the company calls the gas chain, covering the unloading, loading, storage, regasification and dispatch of natural gas. LNG arrives at the facility aboard methane tankers; Saggas changes its state from liquid to gas and feeds it into the basic gas pipeline network. The company has marked twenty years of operation, describing two decades of "advancing together" and providing the energy needed. Its ownership has been structured around three shareholders: Enagás Transporte, Osaka Gas and Oman Oil Holdings Spain. This mix reflects both Spanish midstream gas interests and international energy partners from Japan and Oman. Saggas has developed new services, including bioLNG loading, and has adhered to the UNEP OGMP 2.0 initiative, committing to reduce methane emissions. It also emphasises environmental respect and a commitment to the economic and social development of the Camp de Morvedre comarca since its beginnings. In the regulatory and technical sphere, Saggas has contributed to sector standardisation. On 30 May 2022 it participated in a conference organised by the Spanish Association for Standardisation (UNE) in Bilbao, where the new UNE 192011-7:2022 standard on regulatory inspection of pressure equipment at LNG terminals was presented. The standard was supported by Saggas, BBG, Enagás and Reganosa. Mayte Bolumar, Saggas maintenance manager, took part in a sector roundtable alongside representatives of other Spanish regasification plants. The Sagunto terminal is presented as a key energy infrastructure due to its strategic location on the Mediterranean arc and its proximity to gas-producing countries in Africa and the Middle East. Natural gas is described by the company as a key energy source in the decarbonisation process.
