Fluxys Belgium is a natural gas infrastructure company based in Belgium. It owns and operates a network of pipelines, underground storage facilities, and a liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal that moves natural gas across Belgium and connects to neighboring countries. Its main customers are energy companies, utilities, and industrial users that need to transport or store natural gas.

The company makes money by charging fees to use its pipelines, storage sites, and LNG terminal — it does not trade gas itself, just provides the infrastructure. Fluxys Belgium operates primarily in Belgium but its network links to France, the Netherlands, Germany, and the UK, making it an important transit hub in northwest Europe. Its regulated business model provides stable, predictable revenue since fees are set by government regulators, which limits both risk and upside. The key long-term risk is Europe's push to reduce natural gas use as part of its energy transition toward renewables and hydrogen.
