MOSCOW, April 1 (RIA Novosti) - Russia will double Saturday the

the Armenian Energy Ministry (45%), Russian energy giant Gazprom (45%)
and independent Russian oil and gas company Itera (10%), has a monopoly
right to supply and distribute gas on Armenia's domestic market.
ArmRosgazprom requested the Armenian commission for the regulation
of public services to raise natural gas tariffs from $131 to $240 per
1,000 cu m for private consumers and from $175 to $322 for commercial
consumers using more than 10,000 cu m. A relevant decision will come
into force a month after the request is approved.
