Russia to expand electronic gas trading volumes

摘要

Moscow-Russia plans to expand its electronic gas trading, allowing Gazprom to sell up to 10 billion cubic meters of gas annually and removing quotas for independent gas producers starting from 2009, the energy ministry said February 10. “Independents will be able to sell as much gas at unregulated prices as they want,” a ministry spokesman said, citing proposals for the operation of the electronic trading floor sent to the government February 6.
