State-owned firm QatarEnergy has extended the force majeure on LNG deliveries to the end of the year, leaving Europe and Asia without certain term supply heading into the winter, in a move that drove European natural gas prices to the highest level since the autumn of 2022.
Italy’s gas importer and energy provider Edison said it had received a notice from QatarEnergy confirming the extension of the force majeure on deliveries – in force since April 2026 – until the end of the year.
QatarEnergy has informed Edison that it would not be able to deliver three further LNG cargoes at the Adriatic LNG terminal in Italy, which extends the force majeure until the end of December 2026, the Italian company said.
