Bulgargaz had to buy Russian gas through intermediaries at higher prices because of the termination of gas supplies by Gazprom, Ivan Topchiysky, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Bulgargaz said for the BNT. In his words, gas traders are not intermediaries. They are companies that operate on the gas market and their business is to buy gas either from Russia, or liquefied gas, and sell it.
Topchinski expressed hopes that the price of gas for September will be lower and added that "there will be gas shortage as we get closer to the heating season". The price of gas of the seven U.S. LNG tankers is close to the market price. The tankers can be unloaded by December, said Ivan Topchiysky. The first 3 tankers of American LNG will provide sufficient volumes for household consumers by the end of 2022 and for half of Bulgaria's non-household consumers, Ivan Topchiysky said further.
