On the results of July 2015 Russia became the largest supplier of LPG (about 67%) to the Ukraine having shipped over 46 thousand tons, “Consulting group A-95” reported.
The balance of the Ukraine’s LPG market (without the Crimea) rose by 19% in July against July 2014 to 106 thousand tons. On the background of the fall of domestic production, import supplies stay the main factor of the growth. Compared to July 2014 the import rose by 42%.
The balance of the Ukraine’s LPG market (without the Crimea) in Jan-July 2015 rose by 11.5% to 587.46 thousand tons. The import grew by 27% to 305.39 thousand tons. About a half of this volume is shipped from Russia. Belarus and Kazakhstan keep reducing the supplies.
