Moldova will get a discount of $10-15 for Russian gas


Chisinau, September 9 - Neftegaz.RU. Moldovan President Igor Dodon was on September 7 in Moscow for talks about a new gas price deal with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin. Moldovagaz gas supply and transit deal with Gazprom expires on December 31, 2019.

Igor Dodon announced today that Moldova will get a discount of $10-15 for Russian gas starting October 1, 2019, from the current $235 per 35,315 cu m, and highly likely of $45-50 starting from January 1, 2020.

"The tariff includes the gas price of $168 after last year's discount, while the real price is $235. The tariff was expected to increase by 45-50%. We agreed that the discount would be $10-15 since October 1, and the resulting mechanism will allow us to avoid raising gas tariffs this year. Next year, starting January one, the price may be $45-50 lower, while starting April 1, it may be $70 lower," Dodon said at a press-conference.

Last year, Gazprom supplied 2.94 Bcm of Russian gas to Moldova.
