Trains and phases
Each row is one unit as tracked by GEM. Ordered by start year, then proposal year.
| Unit | Status | Capacity (Mtpa) | Capacity (bcm/y) | Start | Proposed | FID | Owner (as reported) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Not reported | Proposed | 8.82 | 12 | — | — | Not reported | Terminale di regasificazione GNL Taranto SPRL [100%] |
Some units are reported by GEM in bcm/y; Mtpa is derived at 1 Mtpa = 1.36 bcm/y.

Supplied via
Chokepoints that cargoes arriving at this terminal typically cross, based on where its region is supplied from.
- Strait of Gibraltar
- Suez Canal
- Bab el-Mandeb
- Danish Straits
Atlantic-basin supply from the United States crosses no chokepoint, which is why the European exposure figure is lower than it looks.
Routing is an editorial model of typical laden voyages, held in a hand-maintained lane table. It is not vessel tracking, and it does not account for diversions, canal draught limits, ice class or seasonal closures. See methodology, or take the machine-readable exposure feed. Links to the Chokepoints site are inactive until its domain is set in the environment.
