Mr Frédéric H Barnaud, Group Chief Executive Officer of Pavilion Energy, said that "Building on Pavilion Energy’s success in Singapore and in the Asia-Pacific Basin, this acquisition brings us a portfolio of prime assets primarily in Europe and the Atlantic Basin. The combined portfolio achieves global reach with the scale and flexibility required to outperform. Today is a critical step towards our vision to be a leading global LNG player, leveraging our LNG portfolio with deep access to strategic gas markets in Singapore, Spain, and the UK, combined with sophisticated optimisation and risk management skills."

As a supplier of one-third of Singapore’s downstream natural gas demand, Pavilion Energy has been an ardent advocate of natural gas as a cleaner fuel for power generation, industrial use, and as bunkering fuel. This strategic transaction will enable Pavilion Energy to play a greater role in energy transition as well as to offer competitive solutions to our customers and suppliers.
