Lithuania to buy another LNG shipment from US
The company said it had signed a contract with LNG trade company Natural Gas Fenosa. Under the deal, the
gas should reach the Lithuanian port city of Klaipeda in mid-September from the
US Sabine Pass terminal. This will be the second LNG shipment purchased by
Lithuania from the US.
"The additional amount of gas was purchased in light of the needs of
clients in Lithuania and other Baltic states. The growing global LNG production
capacities are boosting the market liquidity and the availability of moment
deals," Dalius Misiunas, CEO of LDT
operator Lietuvos Energija, said in a
press release.
This will be the fourth LNG shipment purchased by LDT this year, while Natural
Gas Fenosa is the fourth LNG supplier to Lithuania.
The first LNG shipment from the US is expected to arrive in Klaipeda in the
second half of August. It was purchased from US company Cheniere Marketing International.
