Russian producer Novatek has begun to ship out LNG from its new small-scale plant in Vysotsk.

This is according to shipping data from Refinitiv Eikon.

Novatek and Gazprombank have not yet officially launched the Cryogas-Vysotsk plant, which has a capacity of 660,000 tonnes of LNG per year, Reuters reported.

TradeWinds reported last month that some of the first volumes were scheduled to be shipped to Finland.

Anthony Veder's 18,000-cbm Coral Energice (built 2018), which is on charter to Gasum serving the infrastructure company's terminals in Pori and Tornio, was expected to lift the first cargo.

Refinitiv Eikon data shows Novatek shipped seven cargoes with a total volume of 67,800 cbm between 31 March and 16 April.

Three cargoes went to Klaipeda in Lithuania, one each to Pori and Tornio, and the other two to Visby and Nynashamn in Sweden.

Novatek has not commented.
