<p>The UK gas market is one of the most liquid and developed markets in the world,
providing security through diversity of supply. In 2018-19 most of the gas supply
to the UK came from domestic production (46 per cent) and imports from Norway (31
per cent).</p><p> </p><p>The UK benefits from mutual gas trade with its mainland European
partners (Belgium and the Netherlands). In the 2018-19 gas year our Continental interconnectors
supplied 2 per cent of the UK’s gas.</p><p> </p><p>There are no gas pipelines directly
linking the UK with Russia. In 2018-19, 20 per cent of UK gas supply came from the
international Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) market. Russian imports represented less
than 4 percent of the total supply of gas to the UK and our LNG supply was sourced
from 12 different countries.</p><p> </p><p>The UK’s gas market remains robust and
the Government will continue to test national resilience to reflect the changing nature
of gas supply chains and markets.</p>
