Belgium is resuming transshipments of Russian liquefied natural gas destined for Asia after a summer lull — a practice that’s been used for years but has become more controversial ahead of a 2025 ban.
Two vessels are scheduled to load Russian LNG at Belgium’s Zeebrugge terminal later this month — the LNG Dubhe and LNG Phecda — after two ships deliver the fuel to the port around the same time, data on the port’s website show. Those are first transfers of fuel from Russia’s Yamal LNG plant since August.
