“We have security of supply. Bulgaria will not run out of gas. ” This was stated by the GERB MP and Deputy Chairman of the Energy Committee in the National Assembly Delyan Dobrev.
What are the possibilities for gas supply after the suspended deliveries from Russia
“I am in opposition and I have the opportunity to say that there is a risk and we may run out of gas, but this will not happen. We are a very small consumer – we use only 2% of Russia’s exports to Europe, “he said on the air of” Hello, Bulgaria “.
“We will take gas from both Romania and Greece. Part of it will still be Russian, but we will pay 30% more for intermediaries. This is the main issue – they are made of hawks in order to pay 30% more for gas “, commented Dobrev.
GAS AGAINST RUBLES: Russia suspends supplies of natural gas to Bulgaria (REVIEW)
“It is widely claimed by people who do not understand that we have not diversified. In fact, we have created the technical ability to import gas from all countries in 2015, “he said.
According to him, in 2012, when he was the Minister of Energy, a procedure was carried out, an American company was selected and the Bulgarian compressors were replaced with reversible ones. “We chose the best company in the world. They can either push gas out of Bulgaria or suck gas, “Dobrev said.
“We can get 20 billion cubic meters of gas from the south and another 20 billion from the north. Ie we can get 40 billion, and our consumption is 3 billion “, said the GERB MP.
He described as “complete nonsense” the claims that there has been no Greek connection for 12 years and that is the reason why we do not have diversification. “We have 40 billion cubic meters of import capacity, it will add 3 more,” Delyan Dobrev commented.
“Over BGN 100 million we will pay all Bulgarians from today for each following day. I bet that in a month or two the cheapest bread will be BGN 2 and methane BGN 4.50, ”he added. He added: “As soon as the attempts to replace the head of Bulgargaz began, this was the goal – to terminate the contract with Gazprom, to have intermediaries and to pay 100 million a month.”
