Tbilisi, 26 April: The flow of Russian gas to Armenia [through
Georgia], which had been halted on 23 April in connection with repair
works on the North-South trunk gas pipeline, resumed on Sunday morning
[26 April], the head of the public relations department of the Georgian
Oil and Gas Corporation, Tamar Shoshiashvili, has told Interfax.
She said that nearly four kilometres of corroded parts of the pipeline
had been reinforced near the village of Gldanula in Gardabani District.
quot;Repairs on this section were carried out as part of the
second phase of restoration works on the North-South pipeline,quot;
Shoshiashvili said. The North-South gas pipeline, which supplies
Armenia with Russian gas through Georgia, was built in the 1970s.
Georgia receives 10 per cent of the gas supplied through the pipeline
as a transit fee.
