The first ​deliveries of liquefied natural gas (LNG) ‌from Oman to a German company have begun despite the war ​in Iran, said a spokesperson ​for the German state-owned gas ⁠supplier Sefe.

The deliveries ​are currently unaffected by the ​developments in the Gulf region and have commenced as planned, said the ​spokesperson, reported Reuters.

"From today's perspective, there are ​no concerns regarding future deliveries," added the ‌spokesperson.

Oman ⁠LNG signed a sales and purchase agreement with Germany's Secure Energy for Europe (Sefe) in ​March 2024.

The ​agreement ⁠follows a prior commitment where Oman LNG inked ​a binding term sheet ​to ⁠supply Sefe with 0.4 million metric tonnes a year of ⁠LNG ​starting in 2026.

Germany's ​Capital business magazine first reported on the delivery start.
