Naftogaz Group and ORLEN Strengthen LNG and Decarbonization Cooperation

Naftogaz Group and ORLEN have signed two agreements to advance LNG supplies to Ukraine and promote the exchange of expertise in sustainable development, decarbonization, and ESG.

The first agreement provides for assessing opportunities to increase gas supply volumes and jointly use regasification terminals and gas transmission infrastructure across the Baltic region, Central and Eastern Europe. This cooperation will help expand gas supply routes to Ukraine, enhance their flexibility, and provide broader access to the global LNG market.

Amid the ongoing war, reliable, flexible, and diversified gas supplies remain essential for Ukraine’s energy security. This memorandum builds on our cooperation with ORLEN and creates a framework for further practical steps to strengthen the resilience of Ukraine’s energy system», said Sergii Koretskyi, Chief Executive Officer of Naftogaz.

The second agreement covers emissions reduction including methane emissions, improvements in energy efficiency, the mobilisation of green financing, and the preparation of reporting in line with European standards.

Today, energy security is no longer just about delivering raw materials. It is about the ability to respond quickly, diversify sources, ensure flexible logistics and rely on infrastructure that remains resilient even in wartime conditions. The cooperation between ORLEN and Naftogaz reflects exactly this approach to the future of Ukraine and the wider region. We want to use our capabilities in LNG, trading, infrastructure access and the energy transition to support not only current gas supplies, but also the development of a more modern, diversified and resilient energy system in Ukraine. Reconstruction should not simply mean rebuilding what has been destroyed, but creating solutions that will strengthen the security of Ukraine and Central and Eastern Europe for decades to come», said Ireneusz Fąfara, President of the Management Board of ORLEN.

These new agreements were signed during the 2026 Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdansk. They build on existing cooperation between Naftogaz Group and ORLEN in diversifying gas supplies and modernising Ukraine’s energy sector.
