With reference to the press releases published by Ukrainian companies, i.e. Uktransgaz and Naftohaz, on the increased available gas capacity of 6.6 billion m3/year for the Poland-Ukraine interconnection, GAZ-SYSTEM informs that the existing gas infrastructure at the Polish-Ukrainian border does not allow for the transmission of such a volume of gas from Poland to Ukraine.

The current gas interconnection from Poland to Ukraine allows the transmission of up to 2 billion m3 of gas per year on an interruptible conditionally firm basis.

Provision of available capacity of 6.6 billion m3/year requires additional investments in the transmission system managed by GAZ-SYSTEM.

A relevant investment decision will be made on the basis of an appropriate economic analysis, supported by contractual obligations between the Parties.
