Qatar is to supply liquefied natural gas to Germany under a 15-year deal as the European economic powerhouse scrambles to replace Russian gas supplies that were cut during the ongoing war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Qatar is set to supply Germany with liquefied natural gas under a long-term deal that will go a small way to helping the European country replace piped flows from Russia, the Associated Press reported. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

State-owned Qatar Energy and ConocoPhillips have signed agreements that will see the Persian Gulf state send up to 2 million tons of LNG a year to Germany from 2026. The deals will last at least 15 years, Qatar\u2019s energy minister, Saad al Kaabi, told reporters in Doha alongside Ryan Lance, ConocoPhillips\u2019 chief executive offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese agreements are momentous,\u201d said al-Kaabi. \u201cThey mark the first-ever long-term LNG supply to Germany.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is a concrete demonstration of Qatar Energy\u2019s resolve to provide reliable energy supplies to all major markets around the world,\u201d he said, \u201cand of our commitment to the German people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Qatar is continuing to talk to German buyers about additional supplies, he said. Al-Kaabi has previously said Qatar is in talks with Germany\u2019s RWE and Uniper SE about long-term LNG contracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gas will come from ConocoPhillips\u2019 joint ventures in Qatar and be delivered to the Brunsbuttel floating import terminal that\u2019s under construction.<\/p>\n
