De ce nu a cumpărat Romgaz gaze americane? e-nergia: compania estima un risc de pierderi de 300 de milioane de euro pe an

Romgaz evaluated a proposal for purchasing American LNG in December 2025 but did not sign a contract due to high costs and risks. The potential loss was estimated at over 300 million euros annually. This situation is linked to a recent scandal involving the U.S. ambassador to Greece, who suggested U.S. involvement in the fall of the Bolojan government, coinciding with Romania's failure to secure an LNG deal. The proposal from Atlantic – See LNG Trade included a long-term contract, but Romgaz deemed it economically unjustifiable given rising domestic gas production and declining demand in the EU. Political pressure to reduce fossil fuel use by 2035 also influenced their decision.
