DUBAI, Aug 24 (Reuters) - Qatar's RasGas delivered its first shipment of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Italy's Toscana floating storage regasification unit (FSRU) on Tuesday, the company said in a statement.

The recipient of the cargo is Swiss-based energy trading company DufEnergy Trading SA.

Anchored off the northern Italian coast near Pisa, FSRU Toscana is among Italy's largest regasification projects.

Trade sources said in April that DufEnergy secured four LNG cargoes for delivery to the import terminal.
