The Russian gas-producing company, Gazprom, said that it is supplying natural gas to Europe via Ukraine on Sunday, in line with the demands of European consumers.


According to Arabiya Net, requests reached 51.7 million cubic meters on April 24, up from 48.6 million cubic meters on April 23, Reuters reported.

Russia supplies about 40% of the gas consumed by Europe. Gazprom has repeatedly confirmed the continuation of the supply of gas shipments through Ukraine in the same amount of 109.5 million cubic meters per day.

However, auction results showed that the Russian giant Gazprom had not reserved gas transportation capacity for exports via the Yamal-Europe pipeline for the month of May.

The results of another auction showed that about 24.6 million cubic meters per day of Russian gas transit capacity through Velke Kapusany on the border between Slovakia and Ukraine has been reserved next month, according to Reuters.

Europe could cut its imports of Russian gas by more than half within a year, the International Energy Agency said, but doing so would require a set of quick measures, from replacing gas boilers with heat pumps to increasing imports of liquefied natural gas. .
