5.2.2 EVOLUTION AT IMPORT ROUTE LEVEL
5.2.2.1 LNG import routes
The split of the supplies of each source between its importing routes has also changed during the past few years. After having reached their maximum in 2011 LNG imports decreased for all routes. Compared to 2011, the send-out into the European network decreased on average by 50% in 2013 ranging from 39% in Italy to 72% in Belgium.

Figure 5.7: Split of the European LNG supply by route 2009 – 2013
Figure 5.8: Shares of LNG import routes 2009 – 2013
The re-export of LNG cargoes significantly increased over the last three years in Europe. In 2012 Belgium re-exported around 39%, Spain 9.5% and Portugal 4% of the LNG initially imported. In 2013, the figures increased up to 48% for Belgium, 18% for Spain and 15% for Portugal 1) . This shows the functioning of the LNG market where high prices in Asia attract cargoes despite the existence of European destination clauses.
