Gazprom's non-FSU deliveries in the first half of January averaged 0.36mn m3/d, while supplies in the second half were slightly up at 0.375bn m3/d, NGW calculates.
The recent slump in Russian supply to Europe comes against a backdrop of heightened tensions between Russia and the West over the buildup of Russian forces near the Ukrainian border.
