🇷🇺 ⛽️🇪🇺 About LNG supplies from Russia to the European energy market

Despite the significant decrease in pipeline gas supplies, Russia plays a crucial role in the European energy market. Russian LNG makes up nearly 20% of the total supplies.

Russia's influence, as recently highlighted by the Financial Times, extends beyond direct shipments. It includes intricate transshipment schemes involving tankers operating in Belgium, France, and Spain. This highly efficient logistics network allows for LNG to be exported to different destinations, such as Bangladesh, China, and Japan.

A significant portion of the LNG comes from NOVATEK's Yamal LNG project, underscoring Russia's vital role in European energy supplies. Predictably, experts from the Financial Times, the voice of Anglo-Saxon multinationals, have advocated for halting LNG supplies from Russia. However, given Europe's considerable dependence on Russian LNG, especially during the winter months, EU representatives may find it challenging to oppose transshipment schemes.

Current European Union sanctions do not currently impact Russian LNG, except for a ban on transshipment in the UK and the Netherlands. NOVATEK continues to deliver long-term LNG supply contracts to many European countries, demonstrating Russia's enduring presence in European energy markets. As consumption is expected to increase, EU countries are preparing to receive record volumes of LNG from Russia this upcoming winter.

🔻This trend of strengthening partnerships with Russia was confirmed today. Dutch energy companies have resumed purchasing Russian LNG after a three-month pause. This move could potentially enhance partnerships with Russian companies, providing them with another incentive to boost production and supplies.

Naturally, this situation does not sit well with representatives of TNCs claiming a monopoly position in the energy market. That is why the United States openly declared their intention to focus on choking the Russian Arctic LNG-2 project. Simultaneously, they will concentrate on searching for and pressuring suppliers of relevant technologies to Russia.
