Until the end of the trial, Gazprom does not intend to renew the agreement with Naftogaz
Naftogaz Development Director Yuri Vitrenko told Bloomberg agency yesterday that "NAK expects to reach an agreement with Gazprom to extend the gas agreement reached before the end of the proceedings in the Stockholm arbitration, the company plans to hold talks on Thursday, 16 April."
“This is not so, Gazprom does not plan negotiations with the NAK not only this week, but also generally extending the existing agreements until the end of the arbitration proceedings is not a subject of discussion between Gazprom and Naftogaz,” Kupriyanov told reporters.
Earlier, the ministerial tripartite meeting (RF-Ukraine-EC) was postponed indefinitely, at which it was supposed to discuss gas agreements.
31 March in Moscow, it was decided to give Kiev a gas discount in the amount of $ 100 at the expense of export duties. April 1 signed an agreement on fuel supply for the 2 quarter (similar to the winter one). Now the cost of gas for Ukraine is $ 247, 18 per thousand cubic meters.
The arbitration decision on the contract for the supply of fossil fuels is expected to be made in the summer of 2016, and under the transit agreement in the autumn of the same year.
According to Vitrenko, “Naftogaz is difficult to complete a gas injection plan for underground gas storages without confidence in the purchase of Russian gas.”
