The facility will refuel Brittany Ferries' first LNG-powered ship, Salamanca, that serves UK-Spain routes, as well as its second, Santona.
Repsol is preparing to build a second LNG bunkering facility in Santander further east. Both projects are to be co-financed by the European Commission through the Connecting Europe Facilities Programme.
