You are gloating over the decision of a tiny habitat which we might never be able to find on Google map. What is the name of the habitat again? What volume of gas are we talking about?

Russia will loose customers
Customers like China and India will take advantages of cheap oil from Russia and may even sell to other country. Third party trading.
Iran will start to make more oil money. More weapons for Iran. Israel should wake up, bombs are coming from Iran.
Other oil producing countries will also increase oil production. Nigeria should wake up.
European customers might have to endure for a while. European leaders will look for alternatives as soon as possible.

. How can Nigeria wake up when they are trying to elect another old sick person as President to continue from where the useless one stopped.

Igbofam:


I swear. Offer EU our LNG at slightly discounted rates. Nigeria is the 12th Largest producer of Gas in the world and we can conveniently sustain supply for a good number of years

Gas that they have not been able to provide for their citizens to reduce poverty, they should offer it to EU? Do you people even listen to some of the things you say? Nigeria should only be thinking of exporting gas when they have been able to adequately provide enough for citizens for cooking and energy, before talking about exporting to Europe. This is the same madness they did with Phcn that makes us supply light to neighboring countries when we don't have stable electricity.

RoyalDiadems:


Didn't you read that they have enough for themselves and their customers?

You can estimate the size of Lithuania to be small, but can you estimate the size of their customers?

If it's enough for both them and their customers, then there's a big Russian alternative for everyone.

Lithuania appears poised to provide service to other Baltic states (Latvia and Estonia)

They have more LNG than they can use this was why the article said "others" have placed their orders.

SeeThisLoser:


As we speak, deals are being made in the background between major gas suppliers and Europe. Don’t be surprised that over the next few months, before the next winter, most countries in Europe would have come off Russian gas.

All possible deals have been made, the US will provide Europe with 15billion cubic this year (10%) of what it gets from Russia. Qatar has agreed to a deal in principle but the infrastructure will need a minimum of 3 years to build first. Maybe you know more than the EU which estimates a timeline of 2027-2030.

Igbofam:


Read the article again and ask for understanding



Entire demand is already met. The reason they mentioned Poland was just in case there is any eventuality. However they already have their needs met now.

A lot of you read but lack understanding of whatever you read so I understand

Where did the gas in this Klaipėda Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminal come from? Did it fall from the sky?

Oga, buttomline, no source of gas will be cheaper than Russian gas. The proximity of Russia to Europe means pipelines. Lng can never compete. Besides Russia has lng from yamal at lower shipping cost
All these is just bluster because common business sense will ensure you pay less to achieve more profit or to be competitive.
For Europe to be competitive their factories need cheaper gas. If China, India etc buys cheaper, they keep producing cheaper goods at the detriment of European and American industries. More western factories will have to move manufacturing to Asia.
It does not pay them on the long run. Germany and the likes have their economic future tied to Russian cheap accesable gas. Forget all the bluster. You can never go wrong if your price is right.

You and the person you quoted are poor business man. And I wonder if both of you have any significant business running in your favor, cos no good business man will speak this way. Just as a shepherd will leave 99 sheep in search of one, a good businessman value every single of his customer.You think it's a light thing if an individual buys your product on behalf of a million people or more? And FYI, do you know countries like that whose populace depend almost exclusively on gas usage even though with few population can consume the product far more than the whole of Nigeria and Ghana put together? If I may ask how much gas do we even consume in Nigeria with our humongous population? You seems not to know that Nigerian are now so poor that even people living in the cities opt for alternative means of cooking, due to low purchasing power. So it's not just about population but economic and purchasing power of a nation, otherwise India should be about the richest country on earth.

Lol at this Mr Economic 101. All those companies that are closing down their operational bases in Russia are not losing customers and revenue, right? Let me guess, you guys are so concerned about Russia, right?

i don't think this should b major news, even though I don't support Putin's war.

for christ sake, countries like Lithuania, Latvia etc have a population of less than 3M each... a small LNG plant can take care of all their energy needs..

its when countries like Germany, France etc, EU countries with over 30M people, pull out of the cheap Russian gas and go for LNG successfully, then that becomes great news.

Use your sense more efficiently please! Don't you know this has given other European Nations the challenge as well as the clue on how to boycott the Russian gas? There are many other gas producing Nations who will benefit from this.

Is it until now that other European countries just realised that they have to free themselves of Russian gas?

If you think oil and it's derivative is useful for Cars and Domestic use only,you have to return your certificate back to Your school.
The lubricant in your car nkọ? Gas to drive turbine's for electricity generation nko? Part of your electronics contain oil content,your fabrics,your beauty products, aviation fuel,some medical supplies, plastic's, fertilizer and several others that are yet to be discovered.

Even the batteries used for making EVs required oil by-products. The charge stations for those EVs also requires oil. The truth is, nothing can replace natural fossil fuel, especially in the 21st century economies that consumes fuel like mad.

Cptflint:

What is the population of Lithuania?..what is their GDP?.. industrial power?.. irrelevant countries that rely heavily on Germany and co..

their population does not make them a dependent nation. They are independent, moreso a country who planned gas independent from Russia before her threat. At least they have more responsible govt than some african vegetables who are on seat of power without foresight. This is not act of population, it is act of wisdom. Nigeria with population of 200m and over 6trillion cubic feet of LPG still import refined lpg. Am not talking of our inability to refine our crude oil. At times intelligent countries with small population rule big countries with large population with unintelligent leaders.

princeeze1:

That is the level of their ignorance. A local government in Lagos is more populated than Lithuania. Lagos has 15m people, Lithuania has 2.5m people. So their gas consumption is very insignificant, they can afford to buy one shipment that will last their generation ages. When big economies like Germany are talking, a local government will still be talking.

Don't mind them. Insignificant country with low population.. their impact is minimal, and listen. They are getting their gas from Latvia and Poland . Where are they getting their gas from? Ultimately everything comes from Russia.

ivolt:

What you should more worried about is how such a small population country has higher GDP than the
entire Lagos economy.

Next time, when you are unsure of yourself, make a simple research before commenting on a intellectual discussion. Lagos GDP is 3 times bigger than that of Lithuania.

Russia cannot afford to stop supply. They have neither the place to redirect nor the storage. In market, buyer always wins.

I think you're the one who's not really logical here, from a business and any other perspective. "The customer is always right" saying...fails in this sense. A bright business will always create a healthy balance between customer patronage and its own standard. A business without standard will be shut down by the same customers it is seeking patronage from. Unless customers you mean are angels from heaven and not fickle, unpredictable human beings again.

Whether Lithuania buys gas from Russia or not, I'm sure that Ukraine is not going to join NATO. And Lithuania not buying from Russia doesn't mean that Russia won't get other buyers elsewhere. Venezuela that was mercilessly sanctioned by US was later begged by the same US for amendment of bilateral ties when it became clear to all and sundry that Putin was going to "weaponise" his gas. If Lithuania wants to go to hell to get gas in order to spite Russia, that's their business. It still doesn't mean that others won't buy from Russia, and most importantly, Ukraine will not join NATO.

They are indirectly using Russian gas. Yeye people

Something must happen to make other things happen! They were business partners before the invasion.

Igbofam:


Population or no population
GDP or no GDP
Industrial power or no industrial power

They have dumped Russian gas. They have shared their blueprint which made their detachment possible with the rest of Europe who are still depending on Russian gas.

A blueprint that can obviously be easily replicated now that it has been done.

Lithuania may be small in size but this simply means larger European countries only need to scale up what Lithuania has done.

Your opinion does not count in their reality

They are confused!
This news hit them like thunder.they were waiting for the EU to go & prostate to Putin.

You can not fight the multitude & win

People here chatting shit! Calling Lithuania a tiny country forgeting that when it comes to international politics, diplomacy/diplomatic relationship is what counts more.

Same Lithuania was part of the reason EU/China summit which was slated to hold around 2020 or so was cancelled. EU claimed China was exhibiting hostility towards EU, and for that yhe summit was cancelled.

Small Lithuana called out China on its genocide on Ughigur muslims (Im not sure of the spelling of Ughigur but you get the point right), called out China on its hostility towards Taiwan.

Even China come soft. Something China find it hard to do. Even, China granted visa to one of the coaches from Lithuanua who keep calling them out, the granted him visa to the last winter olympics.

Like I wrote, its the diplomacy that counts. If Russias decide to be hostile to any EU nation, likewise if any EU nation decides to cut diplomatic relationship with Russia (no matter the size of the EU nation), Russia will find it difficult to relate with the rest EU nations.

Lithuania is member of the EU and EU trades as a block. And even so, Its also a NATO member. Russia understand the implication.

Rupee to Ruble, laughing; what do you think that will get Russia in the international market? Hope you know what happened to the Northern tomato traders when they decided to cut off supply to the South the other time, they carry out their threat and even continue to sell but the commodity became so cheap and almost useless. Once Europe hands off Russia gas, India and China will be playing chess with the commodity.

Best post on this thread.

Trade is not by coercion.
