Russia ceased to be an annual gas supplier to the European Union
Norway has bypassed Russia in comparison with the reduction in the supply of gas in the EU countries.
Norway has become energetic in terms of gas supplies to Europe, “displacing» in second place in terms of volumes of Russia, reducing exports “blue fuel» in EU countries. This is reported Reuters with reference to Energy Minister Terje Asland.
Thus, he said that Norway continues to increase its leadership in natural gas production, while the energy production crisis in the EU continues, threatening to undermine European industry.
“I expect that we will be able to maintain the level of production and production that we have now until 2030.»Asland added.
In 2022, compared to last year, we managed to increase the production of gas accumulation by 8% – and predict the achievement of a five-year-old record. It is also important that the state energy company Equinor will intensify the search for new resources in order to increase energy demand in Europe.
The Energy Minister noted that although Norway intends to limit the high level of gas production, it does not plan to cut prices to make European energy more affordable.
“The market is predictable – when there is a shortage, prices are high. This also leads to an increase in gas consumption for emissions, which are more related to the consumption of everything,” Asland explained.
Recall that Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre said earlier that Norway cannot increase gas supplies to Europe.
