Ukrtransgaz has 11 underground gas storage facilities with a total capacity of 31 bcm – equal to the total storage capacity of Italy, France, Hungary and Austria combined. “The Ukrainian gas market has become the safety valve of Europe and the latest record import levels are more than proving this,” Andrii Prokofiev, head of client relations for Ukraine’s transmission system operator, tells London-based International Commodity Intelligence Services. “This is yet another example how free trading, EU market rules and ample storage capacity in Ukraine are offering excellent opportunities to European companies looking to store their volumes.”
