Feb 13 2015
The transportation of natural gas to Armenia across the territory
of Georgia via the North Caucasus - South Caucasus trunk pipeline,
which was interrupted on Thursday, was resumed at 7:45 pm local
time on February 12, Armenia's gas monopoly, CJSC Gazprom Armenia,
the subsidiary of OJSC Gazprom, said in a statement.
The supply of Russian natural gas to Armenia was temporarily stopped
from 1:30 pm local time on February 12 due to damage to the trunk
pipeline on the territory Georgia. Gas supply for consumers was carried
out without interruption using reserves from the Abovyan underground
gas storage facility.
The trunk pipeline, along which natural gas is supplied from Russia
to Georgia and Armenia, was built in the 1970s. For the transit of
Russian gas, Georgia receives 10% of the total volume of gas being
supplied to Armenia.
