In a step toward closer integration with the EU gas market, a test export of 5,000 cubic meters of Ukrainian gas has been made to Slovakia, reports the Kyiv Post. In the 1970s, Soviet Ukraine was the largest gas producing region of the Soviet Union. Although the country now imports about one third of its gas needs, new production sharing agreements are designed to jump start stagnant production, returning Ukraine to gas self sufficiency in the 2020s.
