Gas negotiations in Kiev completed

The gas talks in Kiev, in which European Commissioner Günther Oettinger took part, Gazprom’s Chairman of the Board Alexey Miller and Arseniy Yatsenyuk, who was appointed by the Verkhovna Rada Prime Minister of Ukraine, ended.

The issue of transferring Naftogaz to prepayment is still on the agenda. This was reported to ITAR-TASS by the official representative of Gazprom, Sergei Kupriyanov.

According to him, the negotiations, which began on Sunday evening, ended around 02: 30 Moscow time.

"The Russian side expects payment of accumulated gas debt in the amount of $ 1,951 billion to 10: 00 Moscow time 16 June. In the event of a lack of funds, as was previously announced, gas supplies to Ukraine are transferred to the prepayment mode," said Kupriyanov.

Meanwhile, as the Chairman of the Board of Naftogaz Ukraine, Andrei Kobolev, said, the chance of reaching a compromise before the start of the new gas day still remains.

The Russian side postponed the deposit prepayment period three times and no longer plans to do this. The last postponement - from June 10 to the beginning of this week - is explained by the Ministry of Energy for technical reasons.

I can’t get rid of the feeling that Ukrainians are either advising to make their position irreconcilable on all these issues, or it’s dizzy with success
Sergey Lavrov, Russian Foreign Minister


The head of the Russian gas holding, Miller, said earlier that for November-December, Naftogaz should transfer $ 1,454 billion and show progress in paying bills for April and May. According to him, during the period of trilateral negotiations, Ukraine’s debt has increased by $ 2 billion, and now unpaid deliveries amount to 11,150 billion cubic meters.

During the last meeting in Brussels, Gazprom has already compromised and agreed to receive payment from Naftogaz for April and May deliveries based on the price offered to Ukraine from June 1 at $ 384,86 per 1 thousand cubic meters. The initial amount of debt in the first two months of the second quarter - based on the price of $ 485,5 per 1 thousand cubic meters - was $ 3 billion.

But the Ukrainian side still links debt repayment with the initial agreement on gas prices starting from June 1.

Energy Minister Yuriy Prodan, appointed by the Verkhovna Rada, calls a new price of 326 dollars for 1 thousand cubic meters, against $ 268 for 1 thousand cubic meters, which the Ukrainian side insisted on earlier. At the same time, the average price of Russian gas supplies to Europe is $ 380-390 per 1 thousand cubic meters.

The head of Gazprom earlier said that the proposed Russian price for gas for Ukraine at $ 385 per 1 thousand cubic meters is objective and supported by the European Commission. He noted that this price corresponds to the assessment of the recommendations of the International Monetary Fund for Ukraine.

In the first quarter of 2014, the gas price for Ukraine amounted to $ 268,5 per 1 thousand cubic meters and was formed as a result of the combined effect of two discounts - for the Black Sea based in Crimea fleet Of the Russian Federation, which was automatically canceled after the transition of Crimea under the jurisdiction of Russia, as well as the discount granted to Ukraine as part of the package of anti-crisis assistance from the Russian Federation in November 2013. The second discount has been canceled since April due to Ukraine’s non-payment of gas debts.

          OJSC Gazprom filed a claim with Stockholm International Arbitration Tribunal to Naftogaz Ukrainy to recover a debt of $ 4,5 billion in connection with improper fulfillment by Naftogaz of Ukraine of its obligations under Contract No. KP of 19.01.2009 purchase and sale of natural gas in 2009 – 2019 years (Contract), accumulated by this company for significant debts for natural gas supplied under the Contract and the lack of payments for current deliveries.

          From 10: 00 of Moscow time on June 16 of June 2014, OJSC Gazprom will supply natural gas to Naftogaz Ukrainy only in the amount that has been prepaid in accordance with the terms of the Contract.

          At the same time, Naftogaz Ukrainy is required to ensure the transit of natural gas to third countries in full compliance with the terms of the current Contract No. TKGU from 19.01.2009 between Naftogaz Ukrainy and Gazprom on volumes and conditions of transit of natural gas through Ukraine for the period from 2009 to 2019 years.

          Gazprom is counting on strict compliance by Naftogaz of Ukraine with its contractual obligations for gas transit to third countries.

          At the same time, the European Commission was notified in advance of possible interruptions in gas transit in the event that Naftogaz Ukrainy NAC unauthorized to take gas from transit flows.

          Gazprom has already taken and will continue to make the greatest possible efforts aimed at preventing potential interruptions in gas transit for European buyers.

          Vyacheslav, I don’t think that smart people - and stupid people, even on the wave of the Maidan would not have climbed to the top - did not look at it realistically. You can get a trillion, another question - for what period of time and how much to invest in it. In our Kuzbass, according to estimates, in order to mine 1 _billion m3 methane in _year_, you need to invest at least 1 _bn dollars. Over the life cycle of wells, say even 25 years, it will be, respectively, 25 billion m3. Although the stocks are yes, they are in the hundreds of trillions of M3. So the proportions of investments and returns are clear :)

        Well, now here the technical specialists in the field of kitchen repairs will once again begin to talk about what to shut off, or rather even to close, the gas valve is OMG what a difficult procedure in technical terms that a state that launches people into space cannot solve for half a year now delivering gas to a hostile regime for free, or rather, for our money, and that if you shut off this gas, then as a result of increased pressure in the pipe (well, just like when shooting from a tank gun) these tubes will explode to hell with a capacity of 10 Hiroshima ...

        I already described the gas situation and it’s not so simple there and this is one of the key moments for Ukraine and the ATO as a whole and everything is tied to Europe and gas distillation and it’s not possible to take and chop off gas just like that. Where to store, save and accumulate it is flowing.

      I’m sorry that this is not the topic, here the news appeared that the BMP crew that drove into the territory of Russia were shot by the right-wingers.

      15.06.2014, 23: 07. Message from Fedor Berezin, chief deputy and “right hand” Igor Ivanovich Strelkov.

      “The main weapon of the junto army is not even the Grad - terror. "Grads", by the way, dozens to and fro in the region. Probably, if now some Romania, or someone else, attacks, it will not meet a single military vehicle on the way to Kiev. That's it - Donbass ironing. So here. A few days ago, a Ukrainian armored car drove into the territory of Russia (freeze fish). However, he met an obstacle - he drowned in a stream. The second came to help. Dragged by a cable - not pulled. As a result, they threw the car and crossed the border back. However, this is not the main result. After the proceedings, the entire crew that threw the car was shot by law enforcement officers. Democracy - where to go? Euro-values ​​- how without them? Kiev-Ivano-Frankivsk mothers, when will you wake up?
      The small town of Snezhnoe and Bandera humor.
      Snowy is also in the Donbass. For several days now, the city under fire, however, was not Grad. "Just" guns and mortars. Nice job. Our sent for the "two hundredth." Remained in enemy territory. There we have two militias killed. We agreed with the Ukrainian side (not at the Ukrainian government level, but at the personal level). Arrived at the place, and he was led to the ditch and said:
      “What's yours? Choose anyone. ” Well, and in a ditch of corpses interspersed. In a decent amount. Apparently, the junto army exceeded the plan.
      Why were there on the Maidan? For European values ​​and game democracy? Thanks.

        The management of Naftogaz is purely American and the goal is to prevent Europe from receiving gas in order to make Russia an unreliable supplier. Well, of course, after twenty years, deliveries of gas from America will be the most reliable and it does not matter that it will be expensive.

    Now the price of gas, in connection with the theft of gas, will rise. And it will rise until it begins to develop shale gas rentally. And then those who are now behind the dill-American corporations, the developers of this, will enter the arena. the gas itself ...
    And the second factor is to expect an increase in the ATO so that as many people as possible leave DPR and LPR ... People are not needed in the fields ... Tragic, but, in my opinion, this is already a fait accompli.

      Russia offered Kiev a compromise: a discount to the contract price of $ 100 per thousand cubic meters - up to $ 385. The head of the Russian Ministry of Energy Alexander Novak noted that this level is absolutely market level, corresponds to the lower limit of the "fork" of gas prices in the countries bordering on Ukraine and does not motivate for re-export.

      However, the Ukrainian side was not satisfied with this proposal, first of all - the mechanism of granting a discount due to the export duty. The head of the Ukrainian Energy Ministry, Yuriy Prodan, called this mechanism a "trap", since the provision of a discount, as well as its cancellation, depends on the Russian government. Kiev requires changes to the contract itself.

      At the same time, the Ukrainian side insists on setting the price at the level of the first quarter at $ 268,5, refusing to pay otherwise for gas, including already supplied. In the process of negotiations, which lasted almost two months, Ukraine moved from this position a little, expressing its readiness to pay for gas at a temporary price, which would be set for the period of proceedings in the Stockholm arbitration, where Kiev hopes to achieve a revision of the Gazprom contract and " Naftogaz ".

      First, the Minister of Energy of Ukraine said that such a price could be 326 dollars. On Monday night it became known that the Ukrainian side supported the proposal of the European Commissioner to set the price for the winter period at 385 dollars, for the summer period - at 300 dollars or slightly more... "I think there is still a chance tomorrow before 9.00 (10.00 Moscow time) in Kiev. A new gas day begins to confirm this compromise," said the head of Naftogaz.

      The Russian side, according to Oettinger, has not yet supported his plan, insisting on the immediate payment of a debt of 1,95 billion dollars and a price of 385 dollars for the whole year.

    There is also a northern stream with a reserved capacity of 50% and a gas transmission system through Belarus. But in any case, the volume of deliveries to Europe from Gazprom will decrease by 1/3. In principle, they themselves are to blame. There was nothing to flirt with galloping baboons in reverse scams.

    Yes figs with her, with Europe.

    Japanese parliamentarians decided to build a gas pipeline from Sakhalin to Tokyo to buy Russian gas. The price of gas may be higher than under the contract with China and will allow to sell up to 20 billion cubic meters per year. Around this pipe, the interests of Gazprom and Rosneft will intersect, the head of which has already requested general access to the future gas transport system to China. In addition, new natural gas supplies may entail a revision of Gazprom’s plans for the production of liquefied natural gas in Sakhalin.
    South Korea continues to head for the implementation of the Trans-Korean gas pipeline, which will deliver Russian gas through North Korea.
    The truth about North Korea, I’m somehow not sure, most likely they’ll let me go to the bottom.

      Lower house deputy from ruling Liberal Democratic Party Naokazu Takemoto:

      "The gas pipeline construction program will be carried out by a consortium of private companies, whose names I would not like to give at this stage, when the details are being coordinated. However, we want the project to be supported by government ministries and departments. I can assure you that this is no longer easy The idea, the project is at the stage of real concretization. Interested private companies have created a committee to work out specific problems, in particular, a committee headed by a native of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, "the deputy noted.

      "Contacts with the Russian side on this topic have been carried out for quite a long time. We received assurances that Russia as a whole is ready to support this initiative and has the appropriate reserves of natural gas for supplies to Japan," he continued.

      "In past years, a project was put forward to lay a gas pipeline from Sakhalin to the Tokyo zone along the ocean floor along the coast of Japan. However, there have been numerous problems with fishing rights, with the protection of marine biological resources. Our current project envisages laying a gas pipeline to the Tokyo zone by land from the Wakkanai area. Before it, from Sakhalin, it will be laid along the bottom of the La Perouse Strait in an area where fishing is not conducted. It will also be carried through the Sangar Strait between the islands of Hokkaido and the island of Honshu. We do not see any environmental problems, everything will be planned in compliance with government safety standards, "said Naokazu Takemoto.

      "Most of the gas pipeline is supposed to be laid under the existing roads owned by the state and local authorities. They will receive payment for using the space under these routes, and no additional lease or purchase of land will be required," the parliamentarian explained.

      According to experts, the total length of the gas pipeline from Sakhalin to Ibaraki prefecture adjacent to Greater Tokyo will amount to 1,35 thousand km. Its construction costs are estimated at 600 billion yen (slightly less than $ 6 billion).

    There must be a place to be both at the same time. Apparently, the United States gave Ukraine a kind of carte blanche for any reckless actions, including pogroms of the embassy and negotiations into a dead end. Ukraine behaves like the last yard scumbag, smoked anasha.
    I just don’t understand one thing - how much longer will we babysit this unreasonable Ukrainian child? Maybe it's time to end diplomatic relations? And that, a normal measure of influence on those who have gone too far. Why does Russia now need to maintain diplomatic relations with Ukraine, which, strictly speaking, does not have a Foreign Ministry, but there is some kind of gathering of unprofessional fans to travel abroad? Recall the ambassador, freeze diplomatic relations - there are 3,5 million Ukrainians working in Russia, so let them go and rally in front of their Foreign Ministry, demanding that they return the opportunity to work and earn normally. And then somehow it turns out toothlessly, as in the anecdote about the ambassador who was devoured in Africa, and in response to a note from the Foreign Ministry, an offer was received: "Never mind, eat ours."

    Here many here "squealed", it is necessary to chop off, it is necessary to transfer to an advance payment immediately. Now they have transferred it, the debt has not decreased, for that we have defended a more advantageous position before the arbitration court. Because the first question of the judge will be - "Do not the parties agree to conclude an amicable agreement on the case under consideration", since Ukraine does not agree, then the third party of the European Commission and representatives of Russia may agree. If the lawsuit is launched, Russia will have the opportunity to file a counterclaim, and there the amounts are much higher. Only the risk of the theft of transit gas has not disappeared, most likely what they did not have time to pump into the storage facility is simply stolen. In the event of a completely deadlock situation, Nord Stream and Belarusian Transit can increase capacity.

    Politics is a delicate matter, but it doesn’t look very much through the eyes of a layman: my neighbor confessed his love to a rich old politician through a gay neighbor, smeared my fence with shit, smashed my dog’s booth, a dog for a pitchfork, demolished the head of my nephew, which is from our common cousin , turned over and set fire to my car, took a bunch of dough without the possibility and intention of returning it, scribbled all the walls with abuse at me, constantly shouting through the fence that my wife was scumbag, his children beat all the windows in my house from the slingshot and wounded my beloved cat, the day before yesterday climbed into my garden and n @ shitted a good heap, and yesterday at a family sabantui in the open through the fence in the presence of guests called me x @ scrap. A neighbor-gay through the fence attentively watches everything and rubbishly rubs his hands, in every possible way approving and encouraging the tricks of the common neighbor. At the same time, it requires me not to turn off the water that goes to him through the garden of a fool's neighbor, who has not been paying me for six months and doesn’t intend to pay, demands to lower the price for it completely free of charge and to the fair remark that the neighbor will steal water, how always has been reproaching me that I will be to blame for this. At the same time, the whole street says that these two are white and fluffy, and I'm oh @ eating a muzzle, a despot and a tyrant, a greedy toad and all serious. But I stubbornly go on negotiations with a neighbor at a price for water and shake my finger at him, you say, don’t do it anymore, it’s not good, not neighborly.

      Ivan and who compares where? And with what kind of methane? It is "coalbed methane" that is produced in our Kuzbass, the content is 99,9% of methane. In natural gas, methane can be only 60%, the rest is propane-butane, which is also good, but also bad sulfur and so on. And in oil shale there are usually few harmful impurities.
      But the development technology is that of shale that coal gas is different from the traditional one where the bubble is pierced and that's all, gas under pressure goes. And here it is necessary to create depressions, etc., and much depends on the properties of the reservoir - permeability and gas content. In Ukraine, I don’t know the figures for oil shale, and even without exploratory drilling with coring, they cannot be.
      Therefore, the profit is really insignificant. And Shell is really not stupid - they did not want to go to Kuzbass, although IMHO coal is much better than oil shale. But in Syria, yes, there was found a huge deposit near the coast of the type ...

    Of the 40 billion gas consumption, IMHO, the main share should be in industry, and IMHO's main industry is just Donetsk Lugansk, as well as Kharkov and neighbors. So why does Russia not recognize the LPR and the DPR and conclude a gas supply agreement with them? No need to say that there is essentially no government, etc. - they supplied gas all their lives, pipelines haven’t gone anywhere, how to get it through - specialists will figure it out, people also understand the agreements - what’s the problem, I don’t understand :(

    MOSCOW, June 16 - RIA Novosti. From 10.00 Moscow time on Monday, Gazprom introduced a prepayment regime for gas supplies for Naftogaz of Ukraine, the Russian holding said in a statement.

    "The decision was made due to the chronic non-payments of Naftogaz of Ukraine. The company's overdue debt for the supplied Russian gas is $ 4,458 billion: $ 1,451 billion in November-December 2013 and $ 3,007 billion in April-May 2014," message.

    No payments were received on the preliminary invoice for June either. From today, the Ukrainian company receives Russian gas only in the paid volumes.
