RWE presently holds around 16.7% in the Adria LNG consortium and has an associated capacity of three billion cubic meters of LNG per year.
The other consortium members include E.ON AG with 31.2%, OMV AG, Total S.A each holding 25.6% and GEOPLIN holding around 1% interest.
The consortium intends to construct a regasification terminal on the Croatian island of Krk, which is likely to be operational in late 2014.
Initially, the project partners intend to construct a terminal with an annual capacity of 10 billion cubic meters, which will be expanded to 15 billion cubic meters in a second stage.
Till date, however, a final investment decision has not been taken. That decision is likely to be taken in 2010.
