SEFE agreed to purchase 1 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas per year from Canada's Ksi Lisims LNG under a memorandum of understanding, with deliveries set to begin in the early 2030s for up to 20 years.

Why is SEFE pursuing this long-term LNG deal with Ksi Lisims LNG, and how does it fit into Germany's broader energy strategy?
