Russian gas transit to Armenia to resume shortly
Russian natural gas transit to Armenia via the North
Caucasus–Transcaucasian pipeline is expected to resume in two–three
days, Georgian Oil and Gas Corporation said Thursday, the
PRIME-TASS agency reported.
The transit was stopped on Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. Moscow time as
the Gudauri–Kobi section of the pipeline was damaged by a mudslide,
the corporation said.
Meanwhile, Russian gas giant Gazprom said that gas supplies to
Armenia had not been limited by the closure of the pipeline as
Russian gas was being supplied from the Abovyanskoye underground
gas storage facility. *
