Venture Global expands LNG supply deal with Germany’s SEFE

ARLINGTON, Va. - Venture Global, Inc. (NYSE:VG), a $38.1 billion market cap LNG company with $2.7 billion in EBITDA, and Securing Energy for Europe GmbH (SEFE) have expanded their existing liquefied natural gas (LNG) agreement, with SEFE purchasing an additional 0.75 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG from Venture Global’s CP2 LNG project.

The amendment to the 2023 Sales and Purchase Agreement increases SEFE’s total volume from CP2 LNG to 3.0 MTPA under a 20-year contract, according to a company press release.

Venture Global is positioned to become Germany’s largest LNG supplier with a combined 5 MTPA of 20-year offtake agreements signed with SEFE and EnBW. The company has already supplied Germany with approximately 80 LNG cargoes from its Calcasieu Pass and Plaquemines LNG facilities.

"Venture Global is thrilled to expand our strategic partnership with Germany and SEFE," said Mike Sabel, CEO of Venture Global.

SEFE, a German state-owned energy company, is among several international customers for the CP2 project. Approximately 11.5 MTPA of CP2 Phase One has been sold to date, bringing Venture Global’s total contracted capacity across all projects to 41.5 MTPA.

Venture Global’s first facility, Calcasieu Pass, began producing LNG in January 2022 and achieved commercial operations in April 2025. The company’s second facility, Plaquemines LNG, started LNG production in December 2024.

SEFE, headquartered in Berlin, employs over 1,500 people and focuses on trading, portfolio management, sales, storage, and pipeline infrastructure, primarily serving industrial customers and municipal utilities in Germany.
