Germany signed a natural gas deal with the United Arab Emirates on Sunday, as the European country scrambles to find alternatives to cut-off Russian energy imports before winter kicks in.
Under the deal, German utility giant RWE will get liquefied natural gas from the Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. delivered to its new floating gas terminal near Hamburg. The shipment of 137,000 cubic meters of LNG is expected to arrive by the end of December, RWE said.
