Can't wait for the 2019 completion of the gas trunk pipeline to China. Russia can divert the gas exports from the EU to China (and save its reserves). The EU can go and eat Yankee LNG cake. It will be totally morally clean as it will not have to buy cheap Russian piped gas. Burning 30% of the gas to produce 70% in a liquified state is surely the best thing for humanity ever.

Humanity's benefit has nothing to do with it. Profit however...has everything to do with it.

GAS CRISIS 2018 DEJAVU

Natural gas standoff between Russia and Ukraine leaves Europe on edge

With billions of dollars on the line and Russia's presidential election around the corner, two bitter enemies locked horns last week over heat-producing natural gas during a brutal cold spell in Europe.

But the tense standoff between Ukraine and Russia also left Europeans on the edge of their seats, asking what's next when it comes to their future supply of the highly lucrative resource....

This Swedish Arbitration Tribunal is a total joke. They actually used Banderastan's economic problems as one of the factors in their decision. Gee, how charitable. Will my bank give me heavy discounts on my loan payments if I have a hard time paying? How about my grocery store? Will they sell me food for next to nothing? Utter BS just like the ruling from this joke tribunal. A pure political decision designed to screw over Russia in favour of the illegal coup regime in Kiev.

No more pandering to NATO clowns and their proxies.

As Another Arctic Freeze Approaches Europe, Fears Grow Over Gas Supplies

This week, as Europeans were just beginning to thaw out from record-setting low temperatures last month, they learned that their welcoming of Spring was premature.

A large arctic airmass nicknamed the “Beast from the East” stretched from the Russian Far East to the British Isles in late February and early March, causing record-low temperatures well below freezing in Western Europe. It was the worst winter weather in the UK and Ireland for 30 years.

Weather warmed up over the past two weeks, and today it is 14°C (57°F) in Brussels. But on Saturday the Beast will return, plunging Brussels temperatures down to -5°C (23°F). Now there is some doubt about whether Europe will have the gas to keep people warm during this new freeze.

Gas markets across Europe are already reeling from the Beast’s earlier visit. Demand soared and prices reached record highs at the end of February. Gas stocks in Northwest Europe are now at a seven-year low. Withdrawal rates are severely constrained by the lack of inventory.


The new freeze is expected to last a week, and gas prices have already started to spike in anticipation. UK NBP within-day and day-ahead contracts were trading at 80 p/th (Eur30.73/MWh) early Monday, and contracts for March 19-23, reaching 85 p/th. Dutch and German gas prices also rose.
