Gas deliveries through Yamal pipeline resumed

The reverse-flow deliveries of Russian gas to Poland resumed on Friday, after a two-day suspension due to concerns over the gas quality. “From this afternoon on, the quality of natural gas that enters the gas transportation system of Poland corresponds to that foreseen in the contract,” Gazprom said on Friday. “I do not remember any Gazprom decision which would not have a political backup, but here I have no information that would indicate any cause of the failure,” state-owned gas group PGNiG CEO Piotr Woźniak said. On Wednesday, Poland temporarily suspended gas deliveries from Russia via the Yamal pipeline due to its poor quality. Russian Gazprom confirmed it, saying that this is a “short-term technical problem.” PGNiG has started to use the gas stored in its warehouses in order to meet client needs.
