Gazprom does not confirm reduction of gas supplies to Poland
The same volume of gas as in previous days — 23 million cubic meters a day — is supplied to Poland now, according to a company's representative
MOSCOW, September 10. /ITAR-TASS/. Russian state-controlled energy giant Gazprom does not confirm reduction of its gas supplies to Poland, a company’s spokesperson told ITAR-TASS on Wednesday.
“Reports of news agencies on the reduction of volumes of gas supplies by Gazprom to Poland’s PGNiG are incorrect. The same volume of gas as in previous days — 23 million cubic meters a day — is supplied to Poland now,” the representative said.
Responding to a question on the reasons why actual deliveries were different from the Polish side’s requests, he said “gas supplies to all consumers are carried out proceeding from currently available resources for exports and continuing pumping into underground gas storage facilities on the territory of the Russian Federation.”
Ukrainian national oil and gas company Naftogaz’s subsidiary Ukrtransgaz CEO Igor Prokopiv said Wednesday Poland has halted reverse gas supplies to Ukraine. Prokopiv claimed Russia reduced supplies to Poland to “disrupt reverse deliveries” from Poland to Ukraine.
