The United States sent nearly three quarters or 74 percent of its liquefied natural gas exports to Europe from January to April, triple the 2021 average, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration on June 8.

American LNG supplies now make up nearly half of Europe’s liquefied natural gas imports, at 11.5 billion cubic feet per day, or double the amount from last year when the region received only 34 percent of gas exports from the United States, according to Natural Gas Monthly.
