Russian gas pumping through Poland resumed: reasons identified

It became known about the resumption of gas transit through the Polish branch of the Yamal-Europe gas pipeline. Recall that four days ago it was announced that it would stop transit through the territory of Poland, including due to the expiration of the contract on May 16.

Then, in order to find a compromise solution, pumping was started based on the results of the auctions. This took time and resources, since it was necessary to conduct such tenders on a daily basis.

Now the operator Gascade, which receives gas from Russia to Germany, has reported on the resumption of gas supplies through Poland. It was noted that the capacity of the Yamal-Europe gas pipeline is used by about 70 percent.

The reasons for the resumption of pumping are due to the fact that, as it turns out, the gas transit through Poland was held for the whole of June in advance. In addition, there was evidence that the bidding for the entire III quarter of the current year was fully completed.

This clearly calmed the situation and at the same time showed that Europe is in dire need of Russian gas even against the backdrop of a serious economic crisis associated with the pandemic. These needs for “blue fuel” will only increase, since since June 1 several EU countries have decided to weaken or cancel isolation measures.

In Poland itself, words are expressed about the interest in maintaining the transportation of gas from Russia through its territory. This statement was also made by officials of the Polish Ministry of Energy.

In addition to Gazprom, was anyone else at the auction? Who else can fill this pipe?

In addition to Gazprom, there is no one to pump it. Strange Poles and a very strange auction ... Gazprom will set its price at the level of profitability of the "pipe" service by the Poles ... and will not raise it ...
Those. When Gazprom wants, then it shakes, and the Poles will get what Gazprom will offer and not a cent more

That's all there is to know. In terms of resources, Europe is bare. So, as the saying goes, "the old woman did not suffer for long, in the villain's experienced hands."

True? So at auctions they trade in "transit", or is it gas? We switched to a “take and pay” scheme with Poland, no long-term contracts, therefore, issues of gas purchases (volume and price) are decided at auctions. About procurement, not transit. However, what difference does it make to you, the main thing is to gurgle into a puddle, the more smelly, the better, but ... you pass, however.

[boriz]

There is a tricky system. Purchases - separately, transit - separately.
The pipeline’s input capacity is 33 billion cubic meters. m per year, and at the output - 24 billion. The difference of 9 billion was intended for the needs of Poland. When this gas pipeline was designed / built, none of the gentlemen was going to ruin the production of Poland. Therefore, even with 100% load of transit capacity (24 billion cubic meters), Poland always has the opportunity to buy and pump gas for itself.
And auctions are a form of selling transit capacities under the third EU energy package. He wrote for a general case, but in our case, there is no one to pump gas except Gazprom. And auctions are turning into fiction. You can simply not participate in the auction, such as conditions are not satisfied. And transit will stop. No one else will come to the auction. And Poland will be left without transit fees. And Gazprom will pump the required volume through the joint venture, through Ukraine. It’s bad that the post did not say how the conditions of transit changed (why Gazprom agreed to download further) or it was just an educational moment: the transit stopped and the Poles realized that they could not do anything.

[culinary]

Just do not understand why.
The Ukrainian pipe is not fully loaded, and under the contract are required to pay for pumping the entire volume. The Polish pipe is not bound by any contracts. Does Gazprom help Russophobes keep the pipe? Maybe they will also pay them a money for a lost court? Strange business. For Americans, something does not run to court to sue for the formula: buy or pay for liquefaction!

Europe is in a hurry to fill gas storages, while the price is low.

Everything is old as the world. Change of power. Nationalization of Gazprom. The cessation of gas supplies under any, even far-fetched, pretext. Yes, in the beginning it will hurt. It's like pulling out a sick, untreatable tooth. It hurts at first. But this is not for long. They are sanctions to us, but we are constantly under them.

They have another branch now. Musk sent the dragon into orbit. Glumyatsi over Rogozin ..... Tired man hiccup. Well, who pulled his tongue.

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

What a blessing - NASA has contracted 4 Dragon flights for 4 years.
This is like regular flights to Ascension Island (which is officially the anchored battleship) - once every six months, a ticket of 10 thousand dollars.

[alexey alexeyev_2]

Well, that Ragozin is not friendly with his head is not very smart, it’s not news. But I would also ask his Mask of fans to moderate his joy .. We will count the chickens in the fall .. It may turn out that the trampoline will be safer and cheaper

[krillon]

Well, today Musk commented on this topic. Dude is generous, this is an internal joke and he accepts Rogozin’s congratulations on a successful launch.

[Alexander I]

it was worth stopping the pumping and understanding came, maybe now there will be less idiocy, and more pragmatism among the Poles

"Hyena" would not be a hyena if it did not get drunk on the dead. With cheap Russian gas he has a walrus for transit and sells expensive American LNG to "dohlyatina" -Ruine (management dexterity and great fraud), which happily climbs into this economic trap under the slogan "We will not give Muscovites !!!"

[Campanella]

With such high domestic prices for gas, there is nothing left to do but drive it to the west. Naturally high prices inside - it is impossible to develop the country's economy.

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

Duc, this is only 3 months. And before that, the Old Man demanded that he cost gas as in Smolensk.
However, the winter plan will show. There, in Saudi Arabia, snow falls for the third year. They already intend to open a ski resort.

Maybe I'm wrong, but the strategic plan based on "maybe the winter will be cold" reminds me of something painfully

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

Quote: Oleg Zorin

Of course it reminds. February 2017 (or 18th, too lazy to dig). Gas in Maryland is a dollar per cubic meter. Gas in Poland - Euro per cubic meter. SP-1 operates at 135%, pumping through Ukraine is three times higher than the normal crisis. Just 3 weeks minus 25 ° across Europe.

[Mountain shooter]

But what about the "freedom molecules" from the United States? What I don’t understand, was the terminal in Svinoustye built in vain? And at whose expense? And that's how it is. Then it is understandable why the Poles are fighting so hard against the SP-2. Then our Yamal-Europe can slow down. Any time. And LNG from Yamal DO NOT SELL. And then what? Targeting American LNG, which doesn't exist?

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

Quote: Mountain Shooter

And then what? To bargain with American LNG, which is not?

He is there. And even paid. But there is no reason to export it from the USA. The Poles have contracted a volume that is 2 times their needs. Apparently, with China and Ukraine they intended to huckster. Not fused ...

In May, the contract between Gazprom and the Polish operator ended, which was concluded with the independent state of Poland under the old rules. Now Poland is a member of the EU and can work according to the rules established in the EU. This means that in line with the latest "fashion trends", the EU is canceling the Groningen system for concluding long-term contracts for gas deals and is switching over to spot trading and the drawing of transit capacities at auctions. Therefore, when SP-2 is put into operation, the Poles will want to declare an increased tariff for pumping in the auction documentation, Gazprom simply will not enter the auction without consequences for itself. They knew about this for a long time, at least last year. Why the case is presented in the form of a political detective is not clear. Everything was planned in advance.

[evgen1221]

But what’s interesting, gas means ours, and buyers dictate prices and terms of purchase volumes to us, and this is against the background of monthly mantras about the fact that EU will not see its gas in our volumes for a long time. It’s all awkward somehow from the word at all. It is obvious that prices dictate to us convenient for them and the rules of the game like that with the market rule (the seller sets the price) contradicts.

[hagen]

Quote: evgen1221

gas means ours and buyers dictate prices and terms of purchase volumes to us

Here's the thing. With long-term contracts, there were penalties for not fulfilling supply volumes. Under the current conditions of spot sales, we Gazprom may simply not go to bidding if it does not like the conditions. Like in a store.
There is nothing else interesting but Gazprom to go to the auction on transit through Poland. The same thing about Ukraine.

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

Well, Gazprom has contracted supplies to Poland until the 22nd year. So to pump some billions in your Yamal is anyway more profitable.

[hagen]

Quote: Oo sarcasm

Gazprom contract deliveries to Poland until the 22nd year

You do not mix in a bunch of deliveries with transit. These are different contracts.

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

I do not mix. Gazprom enters into a supply point agreement. This is usually a specific city. And to drive gas through Belarus or Germany there are two big differences. Especially there and there, in addition to pay for transit through Polish land.

[hagen]

Quote: Oo sarcasm

And to drive gas there through Belarus or Germany - two big differences

And why would Gazprom drive gas through Germany? Moreover, Gazprom is rude in Belarus.

Can you show the text of the supply contract?

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

Shaw, you don’t read Soviet newspapers in the morning? On May 17, a long-term contract was terminated, and now Gazprom’s deliveries to Poland (until the 22nd year) through Poland will be paid by Gazprom through auctions. He had paid before. but along with German transit.

[hagen]

Quote: Oo sarcasm

Sorry, you have a salad of two contracts. At the auction, the capacity of the pipe for transit is being played out instead of the transit agreement, which ended on May 17. The gas supply agreement is valid for up to 22 years, as before.

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

Well, I don’t know how to explain. Gazprom supplies gas to a specific Polish city. Until May 17, gas was supplied to this city via Yamal simply because of a long-term agreement. Now Gazprom can supply gas there by any route, even liquefied gas from Sakhalin-1, even through Ukraine, even through SP-1. The main thing is a specific volume by a specific date. But to pay for pumping through Poland under a separate contract (purchased at an auction) separately from the volumes for Germany and France. Not necessarily for Yamal.

[hagen]

So far, it cannot be different, despite the screams of Polish Russophobes and American populations that right now, just about, well, we will soon build our own branch from the Norwegians and we will live by dictating conditions, including to Russia.

So what? The Americans built a trampoline and jumped into space.

[Break through]

We are happy for them. We waited 10 years until they built a trampoline.

[Sidor Amenpodestovich]

Rogozin's words about the trampoline did not refer to the Mask, nor to Space X, nor to Crew Dragon.
And they were told when in 2014 the Americans were discussing the possibility of imposing sanctions against the Russian space and rocket industry.

[Gardamir]

Rogozin's words about the trampoline did not apply to

So I agree with you, but I meant the statement

Well, soon we will build our own branch from the Norwegians and we will live by dictating the conditions, including to Russia.

And they will build and begin to dictate. And what can we be proud of, the number of muzzles per capita? In 2014, many beautiful songs were sung about import substitution and so on, and so what? Nothing, things are still there. Kremlin show-offs are the most show-off in the world.

Of course, they saw it, and every flight infuriated them terribly. It’s clear that this could not last long)))))

[Oyo Sarkazmi]

And Gazprom will require half the capacity of this pipeline for itself. He has already filed a protest, and the Poles, through the pipeline that has not yet been built, have already been limited by a quota from 7,5 billion cubic meters per year to 5.
The stick turned out to be about two ends. You build, and others use it.
