estimations of East European Gas Analysis (2009).
(1) The price of 2008 was
$179.50/mcm. In Q1-2006 - the price of gas produced in Russia.
According to the
Gazprom-Naftogaz contract, from
January 2010, Ukraine is to pay higher price than any European
importer. The "super-European" price is
the result of successful bluff of
Vladimir Putin and Gazprom's management.
