Agenda
With a developed system for ensuring long term sustainable development, economic competitiveness and maintaining low-cost energy, learn from KN Energies about their long-term strategy for diversification and smooth energy transition.
- Darius Šilenskis - CEO, KN Energies
Lithuania aims be transformed into an energy exporter and a significant supplier of gas and electricity by 2050. Gain insight into how government’s strategy on forward planning for production, network development, and their strong connections with other European and global markets, will help achieve vision 2050.
Balancing ambitious decarbonisation goals with the need for a reliable energy supply requires a dual approach: expanding new energy sources while ensuring a stable gas supply. This underscores gas's crucial role in maintaining energy system stability during the transition. However, factors such as EU regulations, elections, and volatile gas flows have created challenges, including price inflexibility, the risk of deindustrialisation, and market distortions.
Realising that existing and future gas supplies might exceed European needs or impact consumer spend due to price volatility, will gas & LNG find its way to existing customers and how are suppliers recruiting new customers?

- Gediminas Vasauskas - CEO, UAB Achema Gas Trade
- If there will be no demand recovery, do we still need more storage capacity?
- How can the infrastructure be utilised more efficiently?
- When will they be able to receive more imports in the future?
- What capacity is available for trading?
- What is Europe doing to become less dependent on Russia?
- Where are we with the transit contract and sanctions?
- How can we utilise capacities of underground storage and ramp up alternative fuel production?
- What will happen when Russian transit contract expires – will it be Russian or Azeri gas flows?
- Are they looking at LNG as a long-term solution or will they switch back to pipeline gas?
- Will coal be phased-out impact? How high will gas prices go?
- How are terminals intending to increase capacity & expanding infrastructure
We will cover the features and characteristics of small-scale LNG and how it has enabled LNG to penetrate further than pipeline gas in terms of providing increased access to natural gas. We will also cover how the same cryogenic products and very similar supply chains are poised to deliver hydrogen at scale and how cryogenic technology is at the heart of our carbon capture process that focuses on difficult to abate industries can also go beyond sequestration providing captured, purified and recycled carbon dioxide as a usable commodity.
- Addressing bottlenecks and streamlining processes between terminals and TSOs.
- What are the investments, planning and cooperation required in the region
- How can price competitiveness be ensured?
- How much of excess will be traded?
An overview on the liquefaction process for small, micro and nano scale along with cost & benefit analysis with economic impact on the LNG price. Insights into case study of the small-scale plant located in Germany of 140 TPD.
- Gennaro Formisano - LNG Business Development Manager, SIAD Macchine Impianti (SIAD MI)
- Impact of Chinese demand on global prices - TTF vs JKM
- Spot vs contracted LNG in Europe - Tenure, nature, indexation and prices negotiations
- Is joint purchasing of gas working?
- Impact on new methane regulations on imports
We take a deep dive into the global gas and LNG supply outlook and discuss whether it will remain mostly flat. We are seeing a year-on-year weakening of demand in Europe, but what are the influences on global demand especially from Asia; how is the new Trump administration impacting supplies from the US?
