Ukraine pumps 867 million cubic meters of Russian gas within week

Ukraine has increased the volume of natural gas in its underground facilities to 12.6 billion cubic meters, which is 68% of the storage to guarantee smooth transit in winter.
Gas Storage Europe (GSE) reports Ukraine’s underground gas storages are filled by 39%. Under the current gas price of $485.5 per 1,000 cubic metres, Naftogaz has pumped within a week 867 million cubic meters of gas worth $420.9 million.
Naftogaz of Ukraine’s Andrei Kobolev said earlier that Ukraine did not have sufficient financing to pump into the underground storages the Russian natural gas at the price of $485.5.
Ukraine has twelve underground gas storages with the capacity of about 31 billion cubic meters. They make a part of Ukraine’s gas supplying and transporting system.
