The request for the transit of gas from Russia to Europe via Ukraine remains at 42.4 million cubic meters. daily

MOSCOW, July 19 (Reuters) – The tender for pumping Russian gas to Europe via Ukraine and the Sudzha metering station on July 19 is 42.4 million cubic meters per day at zero flow through GIS Sokhranovka, Gazprom said.

The day before, the application was at the same level.

In May last year, Ukraine stopped receiving transit gas through the Sohranivka station, citing force majeure circumstances and proposing to transfer the entire transit volume to Suja.

In September 2022, pumping along the main route of Russian gas supplies to Europe, the Nord Stream gas pipeline, was completely stopped.

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