Gazprom sets daily record for gas supplies to China

3

Gazprom has set a daily record for gas supplies to China. On March 20, the Chinese side's bid for the supply of Russian gas via the Power of Siberia gas pipeline significantly exceeded daily contractual obligations. Gazprom delivered the requested volumes.

Despite the fact that the volumes of Russian gas supplies to China are not disclosed, the indicator set on March 20, 2023 has already been called a historical record. Gas market analysts remind that the Russian Federation supplies gas to China under a bilateral long-term gas purchase and sale agreement between Gazprom and CNPC.



After the anti-Russian sanctions imposed by Western countries due to the special military operation of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, gas supplies to Europe were reduced to a minimum. China, on the other hand, is regularly increasing the volume of deliveries of Russian blue fuel.

Currently, China is the largest importer of Russian gas. And there is every reason to believe that the trend of increasing supplies, which has been outlined recently, will turn into a regular practice.

At the same time, it became known that Moscow increased cargo traffic with China thanks to the first ever railway bridge across the Amur River. According to RDIF, in the four months since its launch, more than 130 trains have passed through it, carrying over 540 tons of cargo.

In the next two months, the checkpoints on the bridge will be switched to round-the-clock operation, which will double the frequency of trains.

Recall that yesterday Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Russia on a state visit. Today, he is scheduled to negotiate with Vladimir Putin. The parties plan to discuss a wide range of issues of military-technical cooperation.
