  Talks are underway between Turkey and ExxonMobil regarding a potential multibillion-dollar deal for 2.8 tons of liquefied natural gas, according to the Financial Times. Turkey is trying to diversify its portfolio of suppliers, according to Energy Minister Alparslan Bayraktar.
  

  Turkey's reported deal with Exxon comes at a time when Russian exports to Europe are falling as Europe increases its LNG purchases from global producers to cut its imports of Russian pipeline gas in response to the conflict in Ukraine. Russian exports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Europe fell 1.9% to 15.8 million metric tons in 2023, according to LSEG data.
