DUH Urges RWE to Scrap ADNOC LNG Deal Tied to Argentine Fracking Gas

Berlin – November 02, 2026 -- Deutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH) will examine legal action if RWE concludes a planned LNG supply contract with ADNOC that would include fracking gas from Argentina's Vaca Muerta formation.

RWE and ADNOC have signed a letter of intent covering LNG from ADNOC's global portfolio

Under the signed letter of intent, RWE would buy LNG from ADNOC's worldwide portfolio. DUH says that portfolio includes Argentine shale gas. ADNOC's investment arm XRG holds stakes in both the planned Argentina LNG export terminal and gas production in Vaca Muerta, one of the world's largest shale gas deposits.
