Exceso de petróleo ruso muestra que Austria aún está en la órbita energética del Kremlin
December 4, 2023 - Austria está rebosante de gas natural ruso, lo que permite al clientede mucho tiempo de Gazprom impulsar ventas a sus vecinos mientrasdemora sus esfuerzos para alejarse de la energía controlada por el Kremlin.
The central European nation has been a hub for Russian flows for more than a half-century, with storage depots and pipelines historically configured to forward fuel to Hungary, Germany, Italy and Slovenia. State-owned OMV AG has a lengthy contract with Gazprom that obliges it to buy gas reaching the border.
The scrutiny of Austria’s supply is intensifying because the nation says it wants to diversify from Russia, yet trade data shows a steady flow via Ukraine that satisfies more than half the economy’s demand, according to Bloomberg.
