The Naftogaz of Ukraine National Joint-Stock Company has already contracted 95% of gas for the start of the heating season.
This is stated in the group's message, the Ukrainian News agency reports.
The message states that the state group Naftogaz has allocated USD 1 billion of its own funds to purchase gas for the start of the winter.
Another USD 1.5 billion has been attracted for gas imports from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the Norwegian government and other international financial institutions.
Serhii Koretskyi, Chairman of the Board of Naftogaz of Ukraine, in a comment to The Washington Post, notes that in February of this year, 42% of Ukrainian gas production was destroyed as a result of enemy attacks.
Koretskyi stressed that before the heating season, the enemy will probably attack the gas infrastructure again.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, the Naftogaz group, in partnership with the Polish ORLEN, has already supplied Ukraine with about 400 million cubic meters of American liquefied gas in preparation for the winter of 2025-2026.
The Naftogaz of Ukraine National Joint-Stock Company and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development in mid-August signed a EUR 500 million agreement record-breaking for Ukraine for the procurement of gas.
