Ukraine’s Naftogaz buys 100 million cbm more LNG from Orlen

Ukraine national oil and gas company Naftogaz has signed a contract with Orlen, one of the largest oil industry corporations in Central and Eastern Europe, for the supply of an additional 100 million cubic metres (cbm) of liquefied natural gas (LNG).

The fuel will come from a shipment of US LNG in April. After regasification, it will be transported to the Polish–Ukrainian border.

This is the second gas supply deal this month under the companies’ Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), following for the supply of 100 million cubic metres of gas from an LNG cargo.

Roman Chumak, Acting Chairman of the Board at Naftogaz of Ukraine, said, “Stable gas supplies remain our top priority. Cooperation with Orlen expands Ukraine’s LNG import capacity and enhances energy security. We are diversifying supply sources to ensure a reliable and accessible gas supply, especially amid ongoing Russian attacks on our infrastructure.”
