Shmyhal expects gas production to increase by 10%


Ukraine is close to integrating into the European network of electricity transmission system operators, whose members are 43 system operators from 36 countries.

The head of the Cabinet of Ministers Denis Shmygal expects the National Joint Stock Company Naftogaz of Ukraine to increase gas production by 10% in 2021. About it reported on the government website.

“The lack of development of our own gas production is a crime against the state. We have concluded eight production sharing agreements, we have a KPI for Naftogaz to increase its own production by at least 10% this and next year. This is our strategy for energy independence,” the Prime Minister said.

According to him, Ukraine is close to integration into the European Network of Electricity Transmission System Operators (ENTSO-E), which includes 43 system operators from 36 countries.

As previously reported, at the end of September, the volume of gas transportation from the European Union to Ukraine amounted to almost 665 million cubic meters – this is record high since early 2021… Export, together with re-export of natural gas from Ukraine to European countries, increased 3.5 times and amounted to 264 million cubic meters.
