Naftogaz CEO: Situation is difficult but under control after 17 joint Russian attacks

The Russian attacks have caused significant damage to Naftogaz Group production facilities, but specialists are making every effort to ensure gas supplies to consumers.

Acting Chairman of the Board of NAK Naftogaz Roman Chumak reported this in an interview with Ukrinform.

He stressed that since the start of the full-scale invasion of Russian armed forces, there have been 17 combined attacks on the gas infrastructure of the Naftogaz Group.

“As a result of these attacks, significant damage was caused to production facilities necessary for gas production. The situation is difficult, but under control. Restoration work continues. The entire team of the Naftogaz Group, together with the employees of Ukrgazdobycha, is doing everything possible to provide the country and consumers with the necessary volumes of gas,” Chumak noted.

He also said that Naftogaz is importing natural gas to ensure a stable completion of the current heating season and to form a strategic fuel reserve for next winter.

On March 7, Russia launched a new large-scale attack on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, which resulted in damage to the production facilities of Naftogaz and the DTEK group.
