Statoil to supply small-scale LNG to Baltics
9/16/2016
(Reuters) Norway's Statoil will supply small-scale LNG to terminals in the Baltic Sea through Lithuania's Klaipeda LNG terminal, a company official said.
The move comes after the energy firm signed an agreement with Litgas and Lietuvos Duju Tiekimas, gas trading subsidiaries of Lithuanian state-owned energy group Lietuvos Energija, to balance the gas supplies at the Klaipeda terminal.
"If I'm sitting here in five years and this is a success story, I hope that we are churning three to five conventional cargos annually into this market", Statoil's head of LNG operations Ingvar Skogseide told reporters.
