European Bank of Reconstruction and Development has published a list of gas suppliers that have pre-qualified according to the agreement with Naftogaz Ukrainy.

A revolving credit line from the EBRD allows Naftogaz to spend up to $300mn on purchasing gas from European suppliers, as an alternative to gas from Russia. Two companies have been prequalified unconditionally: Cez from the Czech Republic and French major Engie,

The following have been selected, subject to satisfying further conditions: Swiss Axpo Trading, UK-based EDF Trading; Italian Eni Trading & Shipping; Polish Handen and PGNiG; German RWE Supply & Trading; Uniper Global Commodities; Vattenfall Energy Trading and VNG Slovakia; and UK Shell Energy Europe.

Last year, 11 companies made the cut.
