Gazprom and Fluxys will develop small-scale LNG market in Europe
Alexander Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Gazprom Management Committee, and Pascal De Buck,
Fluxys Managing Director and CEO, have signed in Paris a framework agreement on small-scale LNG
cooperation in the European market.
The agreement reflects the intention of the parties to collaborate on joint projects for the construction
and operation of LNG receiving terminals, LNG refueling stations and LNG bunkering infrastructure in
Europe.
“Small-scale LNG is not just a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to traditional fuel for different
fields of economy including industry and transport. It is one of the key growth areas in European gas
consumption. By developing this segment, Gazprom will further diversify its export potential and
increase its supply of sustainable energy to Europe,” Alexander Medvedev said.
“Developing the required small-scale LNG infrastructure is key to put the EU sustainable alternative fuels
strategy into practice. It will enable small-scale LNG to further unlock its vast potential to mitigate the
environmental and health impact of shipping, long-haulage transport by truck and remote industrial
sites not connected into a pipe gas network,” Pascal De Buck said.
