Ukraine wants to be seen as a reliable partner for Europe, and for traders in the region to make better use of its gas storage facilities, Bloomberg said.

Russia and Ukraine will continue to supply pipeline gas to Europe, despite the fact that fighting continues at the main cross-border transit point of Sudzha. Bloomberg reported this, citing sources who wished to remain anonymous due to the confidentiality of the information.

Ukraine’s biggest attack on Russian territory since the Kremlin plans to invade the neighboring country in 2022 has boosted gas prices in Europe this year amid fears of supply disruptions.

But both sides have a financial incentive to continue providing fuel. For Ukraine, gas transit provides critical resources during the war, while for Russia, Europe remains one of the largest consumers of pipeline gas.

Ukraine is trying to be seen as a reliable partner of Europe and to ensure that traders in the region can better use its large gas storage facilities, the agency believes.

However, any accidental damage to the basic infrastructure at a gas metering station can stop supplies. The border crossing has been under the control of Ukrainian forces since the invasion, the two people said.

The media said that while much of Europe was looking for alternatives to Russian pipeline gas after the invasion of Ukraine, countries such as Austria, Slovakia and Moldova continued to import Gazprom supplies through Ukraine.

Gazprom continues to supply gas to the Sudzha point with the daily supply volume continuing to be in the range of 37 million cubic meters. m to almost 40 million cubic meters. m. Although this is slightly lower than the 42 million cubic meters per day provided before.

Russian flows to Ukraine should remain within normal limits on August 13, according to the so-called nominations or orders published by the Ukrainian network, but actual supplies may still change.

We remind you that on August 7, information appeared in the media that the Ukrainian Armed Forces took control of the Sudzha gas measuring station in the Kursk region of Russia.
