YEREVAN, September 4, /ARKA/. At the beginning of September
Armenia's national natural gas operator ArmRosGazprom (ARG, a joint
Russian-Armenian venture) had 585,164 customers, the company's press
office told ARKA.
In the first 8 months of the year their number increased by 11,209,
including 1,803 new customers in July.
In compliance with a government decision in August alone the company
installed 21,812 alarm systems in customers' apartments. The systems
detect leaks long before the gas reaches unsafe levels and actively
prevent danger by shutting off the gas supply to the appliance. At
the beginning of September ARG installed 178,906 alarm systems instead
of projected 167,000.
ArmRosGazprom (ARG) was founded in 1997 as a joint Russian-Armenian
natural gas operator. It is the sole gas company in Armenia dealing
with shipment of Russian gas through Georgia to Armenia's domestic gas
market. The Russian state gas monopolist Gazprom owns 80 % of stock,
the Armenian government 20%
