SA Moldovagaz currently owes 854.9 million lei to Gazprom for the natural gas supplied by now. Of this sum, 781.0 million lei represents the debt for November, while 73.9 million lei represents the consumption for December so far, said Vadim Ceban, the president of the Administration Board of Moldovagaz. He noted that the sums must be transferred to Gazprom by December 20, IPN reports.
“Given that the advance for November was paid, in the amount of US$42.95 million (832.73m lei), the overdue amount for the gas supplied in November is US$40.05 million (781m lei), which must be paid in December,” stated Vadim Ceban.
The amount of natural gas purchased in November came to 101.8 million cubic meters, bought at the price of US$815.01 per thousand cubic meters of gas. This way, the cost for gas will rise to US$83.0 million.
In December, the amount of natural gas bought from Gazprom so far totaled about 10.2 million cubic meters of gas, purchased at the price of US$742.13 per thousand cubic meters. This way, the cost of gas will be US7.57 million.
