Gazprom Sees Seismic Shift in Export Strategy

摘要

Russia’s Gazprom, the world’s biggest gas company, is anticipating fundamental changes to its export operations in Europe at the turn of the decade. Not only will the expected change to gas transportation routes be a turning point, but exports are also expected to grow beyond contracted volumes, which could occur already this year, CEO Alexei Miller told investors and shareholders last week. The statecontrolled giant is now weighing what sales policy to apply in Europe where it wants to raise its market share from 34% to 41% by 2035 despite Brussels’ desire to reduce the EU’s dependence on Russian gas.
