Transatlantic Energy Alliance: Poland Boosts LNG Imports to Aid Ukraine and Slovakia
The Vertical Corridor pipeline upgrade aims to reduce European reliance on Russian gas and expand US LNG exports to Ukraine and Slovakia, officials said.
- On Thursday in Athens, energy ministers from the United States and European countries discussed using a newly upgraded pipeline to supply Ukraine, with U.S. officials attending and more than 80 involved.
- After Russia’s 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine, European Union members scrambled to modify pipelines to replace Russian exports with LNG from the United States and others.
- Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said at talks late Wednesday that Greece is the natural entry point for U.S. LNG, and the Vertical Corridor depends on LNG terminals near Athens and in northern Greece.
- U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright welcomed the European Commission’s plan to phase out Russian gas over two years, and Exxon Mobil announced a partnership with Helleniq Energy and Energean for Ionian Sea exploration.
- Shifting to American liquified natural gas and upgraded pipelines positions Europe to reduce reliance on Russian gas, as Russia still operates five pipelines to Europe and one to China.
