Summary/Abstract: In the coming years, the popularity of natural gas as a road and maritime transport fuel is expected to grow. Gazprom recognises this trend and is investing not only in huge projects like Nord Stream 2 but also in small-scale LNG terminals (ssLNG), which allow smaller gas deliveries to consumers. Gazprom’s strategy to secure a stake in this market as a competitive supplier. Russia’s activity in this area will pose a challenge to Polish ports and could complicate Poland’s plans to more broadly use natural gas in its domestic transport sector.
