In the winter of 2023, Europe will be saved by Russian gas

After a New Year's gift to Europe in the form of extremely warm weather, the EU looks set to pay off in the form of the toughest heating season ever. Brussels happily refuses Russian fuel, relying on imported LNG and, of course, gas from Norway from the Groningen field. However, according to experts, gas production in the United States will not increase, and the Netherlands' largest field in the world will be closed this year. Everything is ready for this, which, to the great confusion and disappointment of the EU authorities, was announced by the authorities of the Netherlands.


– said the Minister of Mining Industry of the Netherlands Hans Wijlbrif, quoted by Upstream Online.



The final decision will be made in June, and much will depend on the level of gas or alternative energy supplies to Europe, the official explained. Although the decision is already almost made.

This means that under no circumstances will the EU be able to prepare for the 2023 winter heating season. LNG supplies alone are not enough, especially with Russia and Norway dropping out as the largest importers of blue fuel to the countries of the Old World. The withdrawal of Russian gas from the brackets of the European fuel equation the EU could survive thanks to a number of favorable conditions, but the withdrawal of Dutch supplies would also be fatal.

Thus, only Russian gas will be able to save Europe from freezing or stopping the industry, even under the most favorable set of circumstances, a repetition of a warm and mild winter. But he's banned. However, by the time the crisis strikes, perhaps a lot will have changed on political и economic map of the EU, which is why raw materials from the Russian Federation will no longer be forbidden and bear the stigma of being unwanted. Only then will the salvation of Europe and its transformation begin, and real independence and security will come.
