France is expected to have its LNG import volume be notably impacted by the completion of Nord Stream 2. The newly constructed pipeline, which will see Europe supplied by more natural gas from Russia is forecast to result in 118 terawatt hours worth of natural gas imported as LNG into France in 2025. Without Nord Stream 2 this figure is forecast to be 147 terawatt hours worth.
Nord Stream 2 is an offshore natural gas pipeline of roughly 1,230 kilometers length, which connects Ust-Luga, Russia to Lubmin, Germany. The first agreement to construct Nord Stream 2 was signed in 2015 between major energy companies. However, the construction has been hampered by various political and economical disputes. Nonetheless, as of July 2021, U.S. and Germany's representatives agreed on the completion of Nord Stream 2.
