Russia's gas giant Gazprom plans to export 3 bn cm of natural gas to the UK under spot contracts this year, the
company's Deputy CEO Yury Komarov reported.
Gazprom intends to expand its gas supplies under spot contracts both to its traditional markets in western Europe and
to the UK, where annual demand for gas imports are estimated to reach 50 bn cm by the end of the decade, Komarov
said.
He noted that Gazprom planned to more actively participate in projects connected with expanding gas transportation
infrastructure outside Russia.
In particular, Gazprom may take part in the construction of new pipelines from the Austrian border to Italy.
