The request for the transit of gas from Russia to Europe via Ukraine is 40.3 million cubic meters. daily

MOSCOW, May 21 (Reuters) – An application to pump Russian gas to Europe via Ukraine and the Sudzha metering station on May 21 is 40.3 million cubic meters per day at zero volume through GIS Sokhranovka, Gazprom said.

The day before, the consumption was at the level of 40.7 million cubic meters. per day.

The maximum volume of the transit contract is 109 million cubic meters. daily.

Since May 11, Ukraine has stopped receiving transit gas through the Sohranivka station, citing force majeure circumstances and proposing to transfer the entire transit volume to Suja.

Pumping along the main route of Russian gas supplies to Europe – the Nord Stream gas pipeline – was completely stopped on September 2.

The transit of Russian gas through Poland to Germany via the Yamal-Europe gas pipeline, which carried up to 15% of Gazprom’s export supplies to Europe and Turkey, was interrupted after Russian retaliatory sanctions against the Polish owner of the pipeline. (Moscow office)
