Qatargas Agrees to Double LNG Supplies to Poland

March 14, 2017

State-owned Qatargas has agreed to double volumes of liquefied natural gas (LNG) it supplies to Poland's gas firm PGNiG to 2 million tonnes per year.  

The new deal will come into effect at the start of 2018 and run until June 2034. The agreement comes as Poland is struggling to reduce its reliance on supplies of Russian gas through pipelines.  

The LNG will be supplied from Qatar Liquefied Gas Co, a joint venture between Qatar Petroleum, ConocoPhillips and Mitsui & Co, and will be delivered by Q-Flex LNG vessels to the LNG terminal in Swinoujscie at the Baltic Sea.
