Ukraine’s Naftogaz to get US LNG supplies via Lithuanian FSRU

Naftogaz announced on Thursday that it has secured 90 mcm of US LNG.

According to Naftogaz, the LNG supplies will be delivered via the FSRU-based LNG terminal in Klaipeda, with Naftogaz independently arranging transportation to Ukraine.

“In the current conditions, when Russia is attacking our energy and gas infrastructure on a virtually daily basis, it is critically important to diversify energy supply routes and strengthen energy security in order to guarantee stable gas supply to Ukrainian consumers under any circumstances,” Naftogaz said.

The company noted that the Klaipeda terminal deliveries complement existing LNG import routes and strengthen the resilience of Ukraine’s gas supply, reducing dependence on individual routes and increasing the flexibility of the system.

Naftogaz added that it continues to work with international partners to attract additional gas volumes to ensure stable heating seasons and strengthen Ukraine’s energy security.

This new move comes just days after Naftogaz secured the delivery of US LNG from TotalEnergies via the Deutsche ReGas-operated FSRU-based LNG import terminal in Germany.

This will not be the first shipment for Naftogaz via the Lithuanian FSRU as Poland’s Orlen previously supplied cargoes to Naftogaz via the facility.

Orlen also recently delivered one US LNG cargo to Naftogaz via the Swinoujscie terminal in Poland.

In November 2025, Orlen agreed to supply three more LNG cargoes, equivalent to over 300 billion cubic feet (bcf) of gas, to Naftogaz from the US in the first quarter of 2026.

In addition to Orlen’s supplies, a joint venture of Greek companies Aktor and DEPA recently signed its first deal to supply a US LNG cargo to Naftogaz via DESFA’s Revithoussa LNG terminal in Greece.
