In Russia, they announced the liquidation of infrastructure for gas supplies to Ukraine

December 3 2019 41

December 4, 2019 Russian economic Mikhail Krutikhin, an analyst and expert on the oil and gas market, said that Russia has begun dismantling some of the equipment designed for gas transit through Ukraine. The specialist and candidate of historical sciences wrote about this in the Russian version of the journal Forbes.

Krutikhin noted that on December 31, 2019, the agreement between Russia and Ukraine on gas transit to Europe will end. And if Kiev does not take the necessary measures to extend the contract, then Ukraine risks completely losing gas supplies from Russia. He clarified that despite Moscow’s compromise proposals, Kiev stubbornly continues to speak the language of intimidation, incorrectly assessing its situation. So in the future 10 years, Ukraine may completely lose the ability to transit gas through its territory.

In 2016, Gazprom adopted a program for decommissioning the gas transportation infrastructure that delivers gas to the Ukrainian border. By 2020, 4300 km of pipes and 62 compressor stations will be eliminated in this corridor, and 2030 km by 10700. Opportunities for pumping gas from Russia through Ukrainian territory will disappear

- explained Krutikhin.

In turn, we want to remind you that NAK Naftogaz Ukrainy has already received a notification from PJSC Gazprom, which is from 10:00 Moscow time. January 1, 2020 Russia will have no reason to continue the transit gas supply. The thing is that after the full commissioning of Nord Stream-2 (with ground branches in Germany), Gazprom will be able to pump 110 billion cubic meters on the four lines of both Nord Stream. m of gas per year. At the same time, Gazprom will be able to pump 31,5 billion cubic meters through two lines of the Turkish Stream (after completion of the construction of the site in Bulgaria). m of gas per year.

But that is not all. We must not forget about the existence of two lines of the Blue Stream gas pipeline, also going from Russia to Turkey. The capacity of this gas pipeline is equal to the “Turkish stream” and it is already working. So already in mid-2020, Russia will be able to supply 173 billion cubic meters. m of gas per year to Europe (counting along with Turkey), bypassing Ukraine. And this is without taking into account the supply of liquefied natural gas (LNG).

The long-overdue and absolutely right decision of the Russian Federation ... It is high time to tie up with deliveries and transit through an independent one ... Since Gazprom is supposedly a monopolist and is imposed on Ukraine, damaging it, let it now look for other suppliers, for example, in the USA, and sue them. .. and we'll see ... from the side ...

  I understand everything, you are so eager to enlighten us, the unreasonable, BUT, perhaps, DO NOT NEED TO REPEAT ABOUT ONLY ONE AND THE SAME TIME ALREADY?
  It has been written to you more than once that there are very serious contradictions in your posts and arguments, but again and again you write almost the same thing ... Personally, I have a point of view that at a certain stage we do NOT need Ukraine at all, nor in what form, so try to pull it and so on - why ??? Rather, you need to dig a moat with a depth of two hundred meters and no less than the width and run crocodiles there, so let them explain to them who want to cross this moat that they are white and fluffy, if I’m joking, they’ll think about something else.

And given how it ends now and under what circumstances, what can you expect from the next one? Why "walk the rake" ??? Well, the regime in Ukraine will change, and it will be possible to talk ...

  In general, like that, Ira, let’s point by point, otherwise you have piled everything in a heap.
  1. It did not "begin to grow together" with Turkey, but grew together.
  2. Why do we have something "MUST GET" with the Ukrainian territory? What are we OBLIGATED?
  3. What is the right moment - what are you talking about ??? Former. USSR - declared us ENEMY !!! (or we’ll exaggerate?)
  4. About Belarus - which side is it? And what does the "gas problem" and Belarus have to do with it? That all in a heap heap?
  5. About "hugs" - we, in principle, - in half, whether Belarus will be with us in the Union State or not. Of course - I would like to restore the integrity of the state, but the main thing - WOULD! In principle, we are already accustomed to the fact that around us - podgavkivayuschih am ... people, that's just a pity in our "former" - again deceived and, for the umpteenth time, sold, deceived and sold again ...
  6. China ... and we ONLY trade with it ... including gas. Where is the danger, what is it? We have no illusions about the Chinese - they are on their minds and think that they are the most cunning (well, well ... let's see!) ... But trade (including with ENEMIES), unfortunately, is still necessary a component of our budget (we, however, are not at war with SUCH "enemies" (and God willing we will not) ... and they consider us enemies as well) ... If it comes to hostilities with them, then trade will stop. In the meantime, our economy, unlike the Soviet one (and even then there were economic relations through thirty-third hands) does not have the ability to FULLY support itself ...

NEVER people will live richly with this power !! Yes, I spoke and proposed to disconnect Ukraine from gas, but this is only so that if you do not annex Russian lands, then make Ukraine’s loyal power to Russia. But I did not offer to cut thousands of km of pipes into scrap metal. Efforts must be made to unite the fraternal peoples by any means, and not try to strangle Bandera’s power with the people. This Anglo-Saxons and achieve.

  Nobody is cutting a pipe yet. Remove sophisticated equipment. By the way, they wrote about this a month ago. This equipment costs money and requires supervision and maintenance. Who will pay for it if it does not work? GTS in Russia is large, constantly evolving. This equipment will be needed elsewhere. New to buy, spend money?
  And from the Ukrainian GTS of Russia, only one pipe may be needed, and then not at full load. Other directions are provided by other gas pipelines. Ukraine itself cannot cut its GTS, their internal gas distribution system is based on transit pipes.

      Before the introduction of compulsory motor liability insurance, many, including myself, formalized the DGO of the car owner. There was too much auto-back then, and in the worst form, with a threat to life and health, allegedly to the culprit of the accident. OSAGO allowed to significantly reduce the passions in this matter. And the fact that the private and state-owned companies allowed to compete is better for the client.

      This is a moot point, statistics claim that wage growth is ahead of inflation.
      At least, such as in the 90s, now certainly not observed. Then the salaries were not paid for six months, and the price tags grew every two weeks. Now you can live quite decent, if you don’t particularly show off too much. Here a lot depends on the global economy, but it is not very for us. Prices for our traditional exports are not the highest in recent years.

        Nikolay, you did not answer the first point. You launched into a discussion about the "history of the formation of OSAGO", and not an increase in prices for this very OSAGO. In addition, this OSAGO is turned by private companies, which inflation helps to obtain super profits, ripping off the poorest part of the population, because these increases are not noticeable for the well-off part of the population. cannot be compared with the poor incomes of the poor ...
        Is the growth of wages so "ahead of inflation" that we do not notice the rise in these prices? Are you aware that the standard salary (and this is the overwhelming majority of the population) is up to 15 thousand rubles? Are you aware that the increase in gas prices, gasoline leads to an increase in electricity prices, and hence, therefore, for everything else? In the Orenburg region, the prices for liquefied gas per ruble have jumped and now it is 22 rubles per liter. Neighbors (Samara) - 16 ... And the price "lifters" refer to the growth of something there on the BIDDING !!! Those. equalize our population with the European ... that's just our salary 12-14 tyrs ...
        And you mean "chic" ... The inability to use your own transport do you think "not to chic"? Your reasoning is strange!
        PS - do you know that gas prices are rising once a quarter? (and there is gasoline with electricity ... and everything else)?

        I answered. Monopolizing the insurance market is a big risk for the state. I had experience with Gosstrakh. I know how they "throw" clients. V.I.Lenin said:
        
        Every monopoly ... inevitably gives rise to the desire for stagnation and decay.
        
        - so that we do not have rot and stagnation, let private and state companies compete with each other.

        Nikolay, let's remember the state insurance in the USSR. There they did not pursue a rise in prices. The whole issue was in the coverage of one monopolist. And this gave Gosstrakh to roll millions. The current problem is on a slightly different plane - there is (most likely) a place for a "cartel" conspiracy. And most importantly for what? And to get SUPER-PROFITS. And this is not only in insurance, but also in housing and communal services and in retail trade.
        Do you know what principle operates in the Russian Federation in drawing money from the population (that is, all sorts of "mandatory" payments)? And he is simple - deceive your neighbor, otherwise the distant will come and deceive you! To rob - and there at least the grass does not grow!
        And the most interesting thing is that there is an increasing opinion that government officials are EVERYTHING THIS HELP !!! Otherwise, why would all these prices and prices rise every quarter? You can make money from the population as you like, the main thing is to justify it correctly. And correctly submit this justification through the media.
        
        I don’t feel like talking badly about my country ...BUT ALREADY ALREADY GOT ALREADY WITH ITS GROWTH OF TEN HUNDREDS-HUNDREDS OF RUBLES, AND SALARY RISE BY KOPEY !!!
        After all, you cannot wind up what you sell over the hill at will! There they immediately shove it in the face - A CONTRACT! And if you do not fulfill the contract, NOBODY WILL have anything to do with you (and they will add at last - this is Russia, what can you take from it?) That is why you can not raise prices with "abroad, but with your own population you can do anything and how That is why we remember the USSR - at least there was no SUCH lawlessness there.
        And here - the state condones the rich to rob not the rich, but the rest of the masses of people who have a salary of less than 15 pieces.
        And you can't see ANY competition (and there was none, to be honest) - all this is a lie from start to finish. Throughout the entire Cold War, these amers were poured into the ears of gullible citizens of the USSR (of course - it’s a printed word. After all, it’s TRUE!), In order to rob the loser once again! That's the whole tale about "competition", you can also send tales about the "free hand of the market" there - the same FALSE!

In 2016, Gazprom adopted a program for decommissioning the gas transportation infrastructure that delivers gas to the Ukrainian border. By 2020, 4300 km of pipes and 62 compressor stations will be eliminated in this corridor, and 2030 km by 10700. The possibilities of pumping gas from Russia through Ukrainian territory will disappear.

  These Soviet pipes still, all the same it would be necessary to change. Like most compressor stations. In Eastern Europe, all the same have long been modernized, for the most part by Czech repair kits with increased power. In the Russian Federation, in my opinion, only a few updated, which, apparently, had already reached the handle. They didn’t want to talk to the Czechs, although they suggested it back in the 90s - apparently, Gazprom representatives didn’t get a big cut by their miscalculations, but they haven’t bought new ones yet ...

      Gazprom did not want to. More precisely, individual representatives. And precisely for the reason indicated by me ... Then they said that, they say, it’s better to have new ones, it’ll be more interesting there
      And then I don’t know what happened, the topic apparently resolved ... and the leadership changed, respectively, the team, and I had no more to do with it.

I think that these are scarecrows for Kiev. They will sign everything, like oil - for 10 years!
