WARSAW, Dec 11 (PRIME) -- Poland is ready for discontinuation of Russian gas transit to the E.U. across Ukraine, oil and gas company PGNIG said in a statement on Wednesday.
“The risk of Russian gas transit cessation to the E.U. across Ukraine appears from January 1, 2020 as a transit contract to transport gas expires, while a new contract is not signed,” the company said.
“In this situation, national production, reserves in warehouses and possibilities for imports, including from Belarus, give 25.6 billion cubic meters (bcm) of gas per year total, with spending of 19 bcm.”
Poland consumed about 19 bcm in 2019, including 4 bcm from its own production, 9 bcm purchased from Russia, 3.5 bcm in the E.U. and 2.5 bcm is liquefied natural gas (LNG).
