Gas price for Armenia to be within U.S. $250
September 18, 2010 | 18:05
Armenia is looking forward to Gazprom approving the price for gas to
be supplied to Armenia in 2011. Gazprom Vice-President Valeri Golubev
stated that the gas price for Ukraine is U.S. 4250 for 1,000 cubic
meters. His statement dispels all doubts that the company will supply
gas at European prices, U.S. $300. So the gas price for Armenia will
hardly exceed U.S. $250. It may be lower as Armenia has over recent
years imported gas at lower prices than Ukraine.
Under an agreement signed by Gazprom President Alexander Miller and
Armrosgazprom President Karen Karapetyan in 2008, Gazprom is to base
its calculations with Armenia on European prices. However, Russia is
not going to liberalize its domestic market so any claims that Armenia
will have to import gas at European prices are groundless.
