Siberian gas delivery to UK offers relief after cold blast
David Sheppard, Andrew Ward | MARCH 3, 2018
.. Now Russia's far north is set to provide some relief to Britain: a cargo of
liquefied natural gas to replenish the country's stretched energy supplies. ..
It will highlight the fragile state of British energy security amid declining
gas production. .. The Yamal energy project was the target of US sanctions ..
The LNG cargo is being brought to the UK by Royal Dutch Shell .. Shell is then
due to deliver the cargo on March 6 to an LNG terminal at Milford Haven .. This
week's cold snap has highlighted Britain's growing dependence on imported gas
.. Yamal's first ever LNG shipment was meant to come to the UK in late December
.. But by the time it was delivered to the Isle of Grain in Kent UK gas prices
had eased, leading traders to reload it on to another vessel that eventually
sailed to Boston in the US. ..
...
Magnanimous Russia is willing to help the poor islanders, as usual. But
somehow it 'sparks fury' among the UK officials. So now you can see who is your
true rescuer, and who is your oppressor.
According to this FT article, the Russian diplomats were not lying when they
posted in Twitter the message about the shipment of gas for Britain, since the
trader decided to redirect it to the US at the last minute.
