In August 2018, Naftogaz of Ukraine plans to purchase the natural gas of its own production from private gas-producing enterprises of Ukraine at UAH 8,088 per ths cub. m. (VAT free), the company’s press office reported.
Such price is by 6% more versus the price offer in this July.
“Taking into account that June and July are traditionally the season of low demand for gas, Naftogaz did not receive any offer from gas suppliers. That is why the company increased the offered price for August”, Naftogaz explains.
Thus, in July, the company announced the test procurement of gas at UAH 7,629 per ths cub. m., in June – at UAH 6,900 per ths cub. m.
Naftogaz of Ukraine is 100% state-owned. It includes the operator of Ukrainian GTS and underground gas storages (UGS) Ukrtransgas and the largest gas producing company Ukrgasvydobuvannya.
