Despite the fact that due to the cold weather, domestic gas consumption in Russia has soared, Gazprom continuously meets its obligations towards the European customers, the company has announced.
To meet the export nominations, the company has employed all the gas transportation routes, along with the significant increase of the off-take from its underground storage facilities in Europe.
In particular, the Blue Stream pipeline is operating at its full capacity since mid-January, and the delivery volumes through the Yamal-Europe pipeline grew by 20% since mid last week, the company said.
