For the first time within this heating season the gas reserves in Europe fell to 60.5% of the maximum capacity and equaled to the reserves of 2014.
If such rates of gas use are kept, in a month gas reserve in the EU will fall to the minimum as of a decade ago.
According to Gas Infrastructure Europe, the Russian gas supplies to the EU stay at the minimum level. Europe holds reverse supplies to the Ukraine. All this leads to the necessity to use the reserves of the underground gas storage facilities – gas collection exceeds the last year rates by 280 mln cubic m a day.
