2022 HIGHLIGHTS SINCE LAST WEBINAR

JANUARY. KN has jumped from 33rd place last year to 9th place this year in the TOP 500 ranking of Lithuanian business leaders compiled annually by the Lithuanian business daily Verslo žinios. Companies were ranked on the basis of their business growth, operational efficiency, employee benefits, transparency and contribution to the development of the business community by communicating their experience.

JANUARY. 1500 LNG trucks have been loaded since the start of Klaipėda LNG reloading station's operation in 2017. Year 2021 was the most active year for the reloading station - just over half a thousand LNG trucks were loaded.

MARCH. In Klaipėda oil terminal completion of large-scale works – Phase I reconstruction work of the first berth for handling of oil products – has been marked. More than EUR 25 million have been invested in this project. Phase I of the works involved construction of a new berth of more than 235 m length replacing the previous coastal armouring.

MAY. The Republic of Lithuania approved that when KN takes the ownership to FSRU Independence, the vessel will be registered at the Register of Seagoing Ships of the Republic of Lithuania and the Lithuanian flag will be hoisted on board of the vessel.

MAY. The Lithuanian-Polish gas pipeline GIPL, which started operating in May, gave an additional impetus to the Klaipėda LNG terminal. In May, the first large LNG cargo for the Polish energy group PGNiG was delivered to the Klaipėda LNG terminal.

STRATEGY UPDATE

The preparation of a new long-term strategy, defining KN's place in future energy world and a pathway towards net zero, is top priority for 2022. Process has already been initiated and agreed with newly selected Board of Directors.

  • WAR IMPACT
    1. No material impact. No indications of impairment, arising from revised business assumptions.
    1. Measures to strengthen operational security and reliability are being implemented.
    1. Management is actively working on commercial opportunities arising from an urgent need to build additional regasification capacities in Europe. A dozen of new LNG Projects became active in Europe since Russia started the war in Ukraine. On the other hand, the surge in LNG demand in Europe and record LNG prices in the market are curtailing the pace of the LNG project developments in the developing countries.

REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF LNG

Observing disruptions in the gas supplies from RU to the Baltics, Finland, Poland and other countries shows that installation of new LNG regasification capacities in the region is important in the short as well as in the long-term perspective. Klaipėda LNG terminal operates in a regulated segment, therefore, under current regulation terminal's capacity utilization has no impact on this segment's financial performance, except for temporary regulatory differences.

SEGMENTS EXPLANATION

  • Oil Terminals (OT):
  • Klaipėda Oil Terminal and
  • Subačius Oil Terminal

Regulated LNG activities (LNGT):

• Klaipėda LNG Terminal

Commercial LNG activities (comLNG):

  • small-scale LNG reloading station in Klaipėda
  • operation of LNG terminal in Açu port in Brazil and
  • business development projects and consultations.

Business factors

  • Robust demand for fuels (global consumption in Q1 was at ~99% of pre-pandemic level), lowering oil product (OP) availability in the market from one of the key suppliers - Russia (caused by restrictions due to war in UA) led to: i) regional and global OP tightness, especially diesel with its inventories reaching multiyear lows, ii) soaring OP prices and increasing European refiners production demand, refining margins growing to new post-pandemic highs amid the issues with securing crude and feedstocks. These factors had a positive impact on OP transshipment in Klaipėda oil terminal and led to it's handled volumes further increasing in Q1 2022 (+5% vs Q4 2021).
  • Demand for OP storage services remained low in Q1 2022 due to continuing backwardation tendencies in OP markets due to continued downward pressure on gasoline/diesel inventories levels in ARA region supported by i) higher mobility activities due to start of driving season, ii) the start of seasonal maintenance works in lots of European refineries, iii) restrictions to Russian diesel and gasoline supply to EU.
  • Transshipment of ethanol in Klaipėda oil terminal intensified in Q1 and was ~ 5,5 times higher than in the same period of last year.
  • Bitumen transshipment started and successfully performed in Q1. As a result, Klaipėda oil terminal took ~41% of bitumen transshipment market in Baltic states/RU ports in Gulf of Finland in Q1.
  • Transshipment of petrochemicals intensified and in Q1 2022 reached ~ 48% of the total year 2021 volume.
  • The OP diversification was further supported by transshipment of new product crude oil of Lithuanian origin - the first cargo was accumulated and loaded to ship in Q1 2022.

Business factors

  • The average utilization of Klaipeda's LNG terminal was 31% (vs 35% year ago); in comparison, the average utilization rate of European LNG terminals was ≈58% (vs ≈36% year ago). The average utilization of European LGN terminals increased because more LNG was coming to Europe YoY.
  • The available regasification capacity of Klaipeda's LNG terminal (23.9 TWh) has been fully booked for the current gas year (until 30 September 2022).
  • In March, due to Russian invasion in Ukraine, Lithuania stopped LNG imports from Russia. Usually, 4-6 small scale cargoes (up to 10k m3) were delivered to the terminal per month.
  • LNG security supplement reduction impact 6,7 MEUR for both 3 months of 2022 and 2021.
  • 4 large scale and 9 small scale cargoes were accepted for loading and 1 cargo for reloading operations.
  • The average Dutch TTF Natural Gas Index was equal to 93,83 EUR/MWh versus 18,05 EUR/MWh in the same period year ago (source: ICE).

Business factors

  • KN, together with its subsidiary KN Açu Serviços de Terminal de GNL Ltda., provide services to UTE GNA I Geração de Energia S.A. in accordance to the Operation and Maintenance Services Agreement. On September 16th, Gas Natural Açu (GNA) LNGto-power project in port of Açu, Brazil launched commercial operations and KN became a company operating FSRU based LNG terminals on two continents and reaching important milestone in becoming the top floating LNG terminals operator worldwide.
  • PGNiG received 2 cargoes of liquefied natural gas (LNG) at the Klaipėda LNG reloading station, 12 cargoes of LNG since the beginning of use of Klaipėda LNG reloading station in April 2020.
  • KN follows public and private floating LNG terminal tenders globally and currently assesses business development opportunities in Europe, Southeast Asia, Middle East, and South America.

Commercial LNG activities include:

  • small-scale LNG reloading station in Klaipėda,
  • operation of LNG terminal in Açu port, and
  • Business Development Projects and other LNG Consultancy Services.
