Russian gas flows to EU via Ukraine unchanged despite Austria row
Russia's natural gas exports through Ukraine to Europe have been stable on Thursday, Kremlin-controlled gas giant Gazprom said, despite a contractual row with Austrian energy company OMV.
Gazprom said it would send 42.4 MMm3 of gas to Europe via Ukraine on Thursday, the same volume it has shipped each day since Nov. 12.
Russia's Gazprom halted supply to OMV on Saturday over a contractual dispute, the Vienna-based company said.
It is still not clear where the gas volumes intended for OMV have been redirected.
Data from transmission system operator Eustream showed that nominations, or requests, for flows to Austria from Slovakia were stable from the previous two days, but about 12% below levels seen in November before Russia halted gas supply to OMV.
Nominations to the Czech Republic from Slovakia were in line with levels seen this month. Nominations into Slovakia from Ukraine were steady versus previous days on Thursday, and those for flows leaving Slovakia were also little changed, the data showed.
