“This long-term agreement is a strong signal for the future of Europe’s energy system. Reliable long-term partnerships remain essential for secure and competitive energy markets, and this agreement strengthens Germany’s gas supply for years to come. At the same time, we see significant potential to work together with Equinor on advancing proven lower-emissions gas solutions for customers in Germany. Norway is a cornerstone of Europe’s energy security, and Equinor is a trusted partner with deep expertise and a strong commitment to the European market,” said Michael Lewis, CEO, Uniper.

“We are pleased to extend our long-standing partnership with Uniper. This agreement demonstrates the strong demand for reliable, long-term gas supplies from the Norwegian continental shelf, which delivers energy and industrial feedstock with a lower carbon footprint than alternative gas supply. It further strengthens Equinor’s role as a trusted long-term energy partner to Europe,” added Anders Opedal, CEO of Equinor.
