Gaz's prospects have clouded

Sergey Kondratiev, Principal Director on Economic Studies at the Institute for Energy and Finance, commented to the Kommersant newspaper on the Russian gas exports to the EU.

Gazprom is interested in continuing transit through Ukraine, this scenario is most realistic with the participation of European companies, but it may turn out to be unprofitable in the event of an increase in the pumping tariff from Kiev, the expert believes. He is still skeptical about the prospects of the Turkish hub, including due to the low capacity of the infrastructure that does not pass through Ukraine.
