Accident in Georgia halts Russian gas supplies to Armenia, South Ossetia
Tbilisi, 25 January: The transit of Russian gas to Armenia through
Georgia has again been halted. Kavkas-Press learnt about this from the
Georgian National Oil and Gas Corporation.
The reason for the halting of supplies was an accident at the Gveleti
station at 0000 hours [2000 gmt].
The supply of Russian gas to South Ossetia, which were resumed just
yesterday, have also been cut off.
According to the Georgian National Oil and Gas Corporation, repair
works are under way at the station, though it is not known yet when
the flow of gas will be restored. It should be pointed out that this
is the second accident on the trunk gas pipeline this month.
Georgia's own gas supplies will not be interrupted, as the country
receives all its natural gas from Azerbaijan.
