In late July Ukraine plans to reach natural gas imports from Europe in the amount of about 40 million cubic meters (mcm) per day, president of PJSC Ukrtransgaz Ihor Prokopiv has said.
According to him, in the last days of July the company plans to pump some 500 mcm of gas into underground gas storage facilities (UGS), with 1.5 billion cubic meters of gas in August and 1.9 billion cubic meters in September.
“If October is warm, we will pump gas to accumulate reserves of about 15 billion cubic meters”, the official said. (Interfax/Business World Magazine)
