LNG: U.S. Sanctions Hitting Russian LNG
LNG
U.S. sanctions are impacting LNG flows out of Russia’s Baltic Sea Portovaya LNG and Kryogaz-Vysotsk LSEG reports.
- The plants had a grace period until Feb 27 under the latest sanctions.
- Kryogaz-Vysotsk last dispatched a cargo on February 18 to Belgium, ahead of the grace period.
- LSEG data also shows that Portovaya LNG's last shipment was in mid-January.
- Its data shows that tankers that service the plants are all at sea.
- Unlike oil and oil products, sanctioned Russian LNG is finding it much harder to develop workaround, putting future projects in jeopardy.
