By 2020, Gazprom plans to abandon the transit operation of 4 thousand km of gas pipelines in Ukraine

At the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, which opened, Alexey Miller, the head of the Russian company Gazprom, announced that the company is going to gradually abandon Ukrainian capacities related to the transit of gas to Europe. According to Miller, the Ukrainian transit is economically unprofitable both for Russia itself, as a supplier, and for European countries purchasing Russian gas. Miller noted that pumping gas from Russia to Europe through the territory of Ukraine is about 20% more expensive than transportation along the northern route. It was about the "Nord Stream-2", which is implemented, despite loud criticism from individual European bureaucrats.

Information Agency TASS quotes Alexey Miller:

Gazprom, as a shareholder of the project, will pay a transport tariff to itself. The North Stream-2 transport tariff is 2,1 dollars per 1 thousand cubic meters per 100 km. Transport fare through Ukraine 2,5 dollar. That is, transit through Ukraine on 20% more expensive. We hear that it is necessary to leave transit through Ukraine 30 billion cubic meters, for Gazprom transit through Ukraine is an additional cost from 25 to 43 billion dollars. It is necessary to understand who will compensate them.

The speech, apparently, is about the growing volumes of Ukrainian debt to Gazprom, which (debt) is clearly not going to repay Kiev.
As a result, as Miller said, Gazprom decided to optimize transit through Ukrainian territory.

Head of Gazprom:

Gazprom has begun to optimize the central corridor, capacity is being released, which required maintenance costs, it is about 4 thousand km to 2020 of the year, this will save 1,6 billion dollars.

Recall that earlier the German authorities announced that they would support the construction of the Nord Stream-2 only if Russia retains certain volumes of gas transit through Ukraine.

Miller directly even showed on the photo what GDP they will have after that.

So far, these are all words. What Miller plans there - they will explain to him at a meeting of the Government. No matter how the real situation is, one does not need to scratch the tongue prematurely. And then you will have to make excuses that he was misunderstood, the microphone distorted everything.

As practice shows, Miller is not Medvedev. The language of anything horrible. They don’t even allow it, or he knows how to think - I don’t know ...

I will not say that the words and actions of Gazprom and Miller personally always cause delight, but when he says something, it is already APPROVED and in vain he does not grind.

Said "No gas discounts!" - means no! Well, except for one, maybe ...

[alexmach]

No matter how the real situation is, one does not need to scratch the tongue prematurely.

In general, in my opinion, this your Miller is far from the smartest person. Why talk about it now when the same Germans say that they will erase the Nord Stream only if Ukrainian transit is preserved? Yes, you build first, and then rattle your tongues! Still remember the American shale gas, this genius spoke out.

Nah ... This is a royal gift to Ukraine. Think - 4 thousand kilometers of gas pipelines for scrap! How much do they have a ton of ferrous metal there?

How much do they have a ton of ferrous metal there?

In Dneprpetrovsk, 3500g per ton, in Cherkassy it’s even cheap, only apiece gr. per ton. Kueve is muddy - the price is negotiable

[Starover_Z]

The FRG authorities announced that they would support the construction of Nord Stream 2 only if Russia retains certain volumes of gas transit through Ukraine.

And how old are those pipes? And metal fatigue at such dynamic loads?
Do not they need to be changed ?! The Germans want to do major repairs of the gas pipeline?

capacity is released that required maintenance costs, this is about 4 thousand km

But Ukraine may have money from the liberation of the pipeline -
providing plots of land for summer cottages, and segments of the pipeline for the premises!

it’s not about the age of the pipeline, namely, dynamic loads, microcracks are possible from the jumping of shafts and the vibration they create, and therefore there is a risk of fistulas and ruptures, I think this should be explained to the gay people

This will be natural reverse gas for Ukraine from Europe and no freebies for pumping. Poland and the Baltic states will be in the same situation (it will be even more expensive considering the distance). Reached, damn it!

[Amurets]

Germany, even if it pays for gas for Ukraine and transit through Ukraine. And then the European officials are smart, thanks to the Russian Federation, they must pump gas to Ukraine, and even pay for transit.

[tilovaykrisa]

It can be seen that this whining on gas is tired of GDP) we are allegedly in a state of war as gunpowder says and they ask for discounts and do not just ask for it, but they obviously need it, they send them our message.

[vodolaz]

And Ukraine will become the world's largest owner of scrap metal in the form of pipes)

"Recall that earlier the German authorities announced that they would support the construction of Nord Stream 2 only if Russia maintains certain volumes of gas transit through Ukraine."

So I wonder what it was he talking?

[Vadim237]

It’s better to electrify - gas is a dangerous thing.

[Odysseus]

All this is fine, but the question is, will the US give an opportunity to reduce transit through Ukraine?
They did not take control of this territory and created a "zone of chaos" there in order to allow Russia and Europe to get off this powder keg. Their idea is that Russia should also pay for Ukraine in Maidan. Therefore, they will do everything possible to ensure transit persisted.

[Mountain shooter]

There, and "Nord Stream-1" is only half loaded, because according to European legislation reserves capacity for mythical alternative suppliers. We urgently need ONE really cold winter in Europe. And all these "arts" - as if by hand. And they will forget about Maidania, as if it did not exist at all.

[kepmor]

Well, well, even if they "save" one and a half lard of greenery ... so what?
On what these funds our "national property" plans to spend?
I was very glad if Miller said that this money would go to gasification of tens of thousands of settlements, where coal and dung stoves are still being heated, to lower sky-high tariffs for connecting to gas pipelines, to install gas analyzers so that the skyscrapers would not collapse, like house of cards.
I'm afraid that, as always, they will raise "and so meager" salaries for "top thieves", build another skyscraper, or, at best, buy another hulk with a Witsel, amusing their own pride ...
And who is still happy with this news?

[Baby doll]

Exactly, I have no joy from the "lard" of greenery saved by Gazprom: we are currently powered by group gas reservoirs and the prospect of switching to "pipe" gas is not visible. Accordingly, the price is more than 70 rubles per 1 cubic meter. Here it is "national treasure" !!!

[V.ic]

Another shaking of the air by Mr. Miller. How many times have already been voiced by the most different officials from the Russian Federation like: "here we are" them "now!", But things are still there. Tryndet language - do not roll bags! Well, as I understand it, this is the way it should be ... to drive a blizzard before the elections.

Maybe it was not necessary to broadcast about this so loudly from the rostrum to the whole world, otherwise now such a stench (from gases) will rise that it will not seem a little. Would do with the Germans "Nord Stream - 2" quietly, without an announcement, the Poles, Czechs and Slovaks would choke in anger, the Ukrainians would shout that the Germans are "zradniki", etc., and now mattress mats and shaves will openly press BASF, E.ON, ENGIE, OMV and Shell.

[Bramb]

Well, why post such castrated articles here?
In this matter, a lot of nuances!
For example, gas reserves in the Dutch field decreased sharply and now they import gas instead of exports; Poland asks Norway for a new gas pipeline to it, but there is no money, and Norway does not have it either; in July, the EU must decide to increase gas transit through the OPAL gas pipeline, etc.
If you are already writing, then write all the information! And then people create a distorted understanding of reality.
An article minus is precisely for this.

[pig killer]

In any case, the place of the raw materials appendage of the western
and not only) the economy.
And the country UA404 is nothing more than an intestinal parasite, which it should, from the point of view of universal people,
continue to support Russia. And not only through the transit of hydrocarbons. IMHO

[Zomanus]

Well, what, on the fingers explained why we do not want to drive gas through Ukraine.
He explained it in a language understandable to the West, that is, he explained about financial losses.
Interestingly, is everything ready for the SP-2? And then something is talk.
Or maybe they are quietly pulling the pipe?

[ibu355yandex.ru]

"Earlier, the FRG authorities announced that they would support the construction of Nord Stream 2 only if Russia maintains certain volumes of gas transit through Ukraine."
The issue is solved very simply - buy gas on the border of Russia with Ukraine and pay for the dill transit yourself ... There are no problems. You staged a maidan, so feed Svidomo yourself! No need to connect Russia to this. We already fed them and received thanks!

[olimpiada15]

It is necessary to refuse gas transit through Ukraine, it is better not to deal with such partners.
But Miller needed to emphasize that this was a mutual agreement with Ukraine.
There were too many statements from the other side: they don’t need Russian gas, and they don’t want to be partners, not to mention Yarosh’s statements about his desire to blow up the gas pipeline, and now he’s like a deputy of the Verkhovna Rada.
Given the love of the current Ukrainian authorities for blockades, Europeans can also point out the unreliability of the Ukrainian transit station and the lack of concern for the technical condition of the gas pipeline.
I can understand the reaction of Russian fans for the attitude of the British towards the Russian flag, but I cannot understand why the state-owned company suffers all the bullying from transiters and buyers of our Russian gas. It is necessary to put them in a situation "for which we fought, we ran into it".
By and large, Russia is not interested in selling gas to the west, for the country it is a retribution for the government’s economic failures, a necessary measure. It’s another matter that big business interests the state to a damn, they need to weld personal capital, the future of the country's economy, they are not interested, as is the fate of the country and its people.
In terms of gas supplies, the West depends on Russia, it’s normal not to use its advantage (although not for business, purely human), but it should not be allowed for those who benefit, to wipe their feet on those on whom their well-being depends.
The state should build the country's policy so that Russia is respected and appreciated as a partner.

[Mercenary]

It’s time for Gazprom to get busy with the prosecutor’s office!
1. Until 2016, Ukrainians paid less for gas than Russians.
2. Gazprom lawyers draw up contracts that cannot be interrupted without incurring billions in losses to the West through the fault of Ukraine (transit and third parties)
3. The President ordered to stop gas transit through Ukraine until 2019, that is, until December 31, 2018! (where did the date 2020 come from? Later 2025 -35 will appear?
4. Why is our gas imposed on the West? They do not want to let them buy from the United States in a tri-road (they will not sell goals to our grandchildren)
5. Miller needs to take more care of the Russians (thousands of towns and villages are not gasified, and gas transmission prices are astronomical from 250 thousand rubles)

[Xmyp]

Let me answer your questions.
1. It is possible, but the price should be asked to the government, and not to blame Ukraine for what it is cheaper.
2. What kind of contracts are we talking about? All transit to Europe, which Ukraine takes over.
3. The date associated with the construction of the northern stream No. 2.
4. Because we do not really need gas, the production collapsed a long time ago, and what remains is soon waiting to take into account the collapse.
5. No one will gasify anything, all the costs of gasification are borne by the Federal (municipal) budget, Gazprom does not incur losses when constructing gas pipelines in cities and villages.

In principle, we can agree, but under one harsh condition, Germany pays for all gas transit through Ukraine, as well as losses.

Many times I heard that Ukraine was stuck in the 90s. This is not true. Ukraine in the 90s has never been. Oddly enough this sounds, but Ukraine now is a crooked reflection of the USSR of the late 80s. A gullible people, a thief is eager for power (or rather, it has already broken) The result is predictable: decay.

Former Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk said that the implementation of the Nord Stream 2 project "will deprive Ukraine of $ 2,2 billion for gas transit."

Who does not know - 2019 is the deadline for long-term contracts for gas supplies through the Ukrainian GTS. And the western guardians of Ukraine take care of this - so as not to be left without a pie. I think in this sense Miller’s clear message is the right answer to European-German impudence. To make everyone aware: there will be no kina!

[Dr. Vlado]

All this, of course, is good. But ... By the year 2020, the state of Ukraine will disappear. I like Malorossia and Novorossiya as an integral part of Great Russia! By the way, I think that the curators of the current Kiev authorities understand this very well and that’s why the Ukrainian economy is being intensively destroyed. , if it didn’t turn out to take possession of these lands and their riches, then at least we should spoil them.

[pafegosoff]

Their gas, their money.
Naturally, what the hell to drive a car along a bumpy road when there is a freeway. What is the operation of a forty-year gas pipeline? This is all a lot of money for patching worn equipment. In addition to pipes, the metal of which undergoes a corrosive and fatigue effect and will break more and more often (and flaw detection is no longer necessary, everything must be changed), gas distribution equipment, compressors, automation and telemechanics are, in general, a whole set of costs, and how much is needed to bribe the Euroopeans ?
So, we’ll rejoice that a little more money will come to the state budget of the Russian Federation from gas sales in five years ... A little bit ...
And do not worry about GAZPROM, it will stand up for itself, run and fly. This is a state, which includes the Russian Federation too ...

[Ros 56]

Literally over the past six months, the German authorities have been announcing so much about gas pipelines that their ears are folded into a tube, and these statements were exactly the opposite of how a shitty wife, I will give, then I will not. And the Khokhlobandera route should have been blocked for a long time, as an unfriendly state. It is impossible for everyone to be good, whether you are at least some ideal, and as you know, there are no ideal ones, therefore, we must behave in relation to our "partners" accordingly.
