Russian natural gas giant Gazprom decreases production
Gazprom also announced a decrease in natural gas exports from 163 to 161 billion cubic meters. Russian news agency RBK reminds that Gazprom produced 548.6 billion cubic meters of natural gas in 2007, estimates indicating 565 - 570 billions in 2010, 610-615 billions in 2015 and 650 billions in 2020.
The production decrease is caused mainly by the international crisis, experts say. Some of the Gazprom may be halted and the company may seek financial supplements on the international financial market.
