SEFE Signs Three-Year LNG Supply Deal with ADNOC Gas

SEFE signs a $400M, three-year LNG supply deal with ADNOC Gas, enhancing energy ties and ensuring European supply security.

Securing Energy for Europe (SEFE) and ADNOC Gas, a subsidiary of the United Arab Emirates' national energy company ADNOC, have announced a three-year liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply agreement. Under this newly signed deal, ADNOC Gas will deliver approximately 0.7 million tonnes of LNG to SEFE, with shipments scheduled to commence in the summer of 2025. Valued at around USD 400 million over its term, the agreement reinforces both companies’ shared objectives to broaden their global presence and deepen ties with key international energy partners.

The LNG for this contract will be supplied from ADNOC Gas' Das Island liquefaction facility, a cornerstone of the company’s operations. Das Island’s LNG plant, with an annual production capacity of six million tonnes, has played a pivotal role in ADNOC Gas' global outreach. Since beginning operations in 1977, the facility has delivered more than 3,500 LNG cargoes to markets worldwide, making it one of the key contributors to the UAE’s growing prominence in the global energy sector.

This agreement also strengthens the broader strategic cooperation between the UAE and Germany. It builds on the momentum of bilateral initiatives such as the Energy Security and Industry Accelerator (ESIA) agreement signed in 2022 and the more recent 2024 Joint Declaration with the German state of Baden-Württemberg. These frameworks are aimed at enhancing energy security, fostering the development of sustainable fuels, and promoting closer industrial collaboration.

Fatema Al Nuaimi, Chief Executive Officer of ADNOC Gas, emphasized the significance of the agreement in reinforcing ADNOC Gas’ reputation as a dependable energy supplier and its commitment to supporting Europe’s energy requirements. “This agreement strengthens our longstanding partnership with SEFE and reinforces ADNOC Gas’ role as a reliable global energy provider. It reflects our continued efforts to support energy security and sustainability in Europe,” she said. She further highlighted that the deal underlines ADNOC Gas’ strategic progress and showcases its resilience in navigating global energy markets.

Frederic Barnaud, Chief Commercial Officer at SEFE, welcomed the new agreement, noting that it enhances an already strong relationship with ADNOC. “We have developed a solid partnership with ADNOC over the past 20 years. This medium-term LNG contract builds upon our previous long-term supply agreement, adding a flexible and reliable source of LNG to SEFE’s diversified portfolio,” Barnaud stated. He emphasized that the arrangement would benefit both Europe’s energy security and SEFE’s broader market activities.

ADNOC Gas remains central to the UAE’s strategy to expand natural gas production and LNG exports, helping meet global demand while advancing the country’s sustainable energy ambitions. Meanwhile, SEFE continues to focus on energy reliability across Germany and Europe by engaging with leading energy producers worldwide and diversifying its LNG sources to ensure long-term supply stability.
