Lithuania to buy floating liquefied gas terminal

VILNIUS, Lithuania (AP) — Lithuanian lawmakers have voted to buy a floating liquefied natural gas terminal that has been providing gas to the Baltic nation as it tries to reduce its reliance on Russian energy.
In Tuesday’s 99-1 vote with 17 lawmakers abstaining, parliament voted to buy the 300-meter (984-foot) Independence from a Norwegian company, Hoegh LNG AS. The terminal has been docked off Lithuania’s coast since 2014 and is used to supply natural gas from Norway.
