Nabucco and South Sream: Needless Competitionenergystate
The document discusses two competing gas pipeline projects - Nabucco and South Stream - between Europe and Russia. It analyzes the challenges facing both projects, including differing partner priorities, uncertainty around gas supply sources, and political issues between countries. Key problems highlighted are the high costs of Nabucco, lack of a confirmed gas supply, and tensions between Turkey and Russia over the South Stream project. The document suggests potential solutions could involve concessions between EU, Russia and Ukraine to reduce unnecessary competition between the two pipelines.
Are Russia and the EU planning a zombie pipeline network?Nicholas Newman
The question being raised in Europe is many of the new gas pipelines being planned by both Moscow and Brussels may not be required. Since 2008, overall demand for power has contracted by 1.2 % per year, reports European Commission's “Quarterly Report on European Electricity Markets."
Demand for gas is likely to fall further due to increased usage of coal and renewables for power generation. Europe has still not recovered from its economic crisis. The arrival of LNG from the United States and domestic production of shale gas.
The document summarizes the ongoing dispute between Gazprom of Russia and Naftogaz of Ukraine over natural gas supply contracts. It discusses how the dissolution of the Soviet Union impacted gas reserves and supply routes between the two countries. The dispute involves pricing disagreements as well as political tensions. A temporary settlement was reached in 2006 involving a five-year contract and price concessions, but long term solutions proving difficult due to political differences between Russia and Ukraine remain elusive.

Russia and Europe: in Useless Search of Diversificationenergystate
The document discusses issues surrounding Europe's energy security and dependence on fossil fuels. It notes that easily accessible oil and gas reserves have been depleted, leaving more difficult reserves that have higher political risks. Economic crisis may temporarily lower oil prices but could exacerbate long-term energy shortages by reducing investment in new projects. Alternative energy sources still have significant limitations, and diversifying gas suppliers away from Russia poses major challenges. The document argues that fully replacing fossil fuels is not possible and Europe will continue to rely heavily on gas imports, including from Russia.

Russia is a major exporter of crude oil and natural gas. The top three routes for Russian crude oil exports via pipeline are to the Baltic Sea, through the Druzhba pipeline, and to the Black Sea. Proposed new pipelines include Nord Stream to Europe, South Stream to Europe through the Black Sea, and the ESPO pipeline to export oil to Asia Pacific markets like China. Major gas basins in Russia that feed exports include the Urengoy, Hamburg, and Bovanenkovskoe fields.

ICIS webinar - Role of ukraine in russian gas supply to europeICIS
Political tensions between Russia and Ukraine had an effect on European natural gas sector in the first quarter of this year. Ukraine still transits more than 50% of total Russian gas supplies to Europe. The relationship between the two countries will continue to be key for Russia as a supplier and have impact on its relations with Europe – currently Russia’s sole market for gas.
http://www.icis.com/resources/
The document discusses gas transmission in Central and Eastern Europe. It notes that while the region has historically been dependent on Russian gas and lacked infrastructure integration and diversification, the market is starting to develop. Key planned and existing pipeline projects that could help improve connectivity and supply security are outlined, including Nord Stream 2, reverse flows to Ukraine, and regional interconnectors like the Slovak-Polish project. The document emphasizes that national plans need to be coordinated regionally and that infrastructure alone is not enough - markets also need integration through measures like coordinated capacity allocation and gas trading platforms.
The document discusses natural gas supplies and infrastructure in Europe. It notes that while Europe has significant regasification capacity for liquefied natural gas (LNG), much of this capacity remains unused. It also notes that Russia currently supplies a large amount of the gas used in Europe. There is potential to diversify supplies through increased use of LNG terminals and infrastructure investments, but this would require large capital expenditures. The document also discusses Poland's shale gas resources and efforts to develop regulations to increase hydrocarbon extraction.

The document summarizes China's energy resources and strategies. It notes that China relies heavily on coal but is focusing on increasing natural gas, nuclear, and renewable energy. It outlines China's domestic oil and gas fields as well as import strategies, including pipelines from Russia, Turkmenistan, and Myanmar. It also discusses China's strategic petroleum reserves and issues around securing oil supply routes.
Europe And Russia On The Verge Of Mutual Energy Mistakeenergystate
The document discusses issues surrounding Europe's energy strategy and its relationship with Russia regarding natural gas supplies. It argues that Europe's hopes for diversifying its gas supplies through pipelines like Nabucco and LNG imports are unrealistic. Within the next 15-20 years, demand for gas may rise again while supplies from many hoped-for sources may fail to materialize or be unreliable. Russia is pursuing strategies to redirect its oil and gas exports eastward to China and other Asian markets in response to Europe's diversification efforts. The EU may face energy difficulties without reliable gas from Russia.
Russia, The EU and Ukraine: The Kea Gas Triangleenergystate
This document summarizes the complex geopolitical relationships between Russia, the European Union, and Ukraine regarding natural gas supplies and pipelines. It notes that while the EU wants to diversify its gas sources, Russia remains the key supplier and wants to maintain that role. It also discusses tensions over gas transit through Ukraine and the financial difficulties facing Ukraine's state-owned gas company. The future stability and reliability of gas supplies to Europe depends on successfully managing these relationships.
The Ukraine Crisis - could gas supply disruptions affect Europe?Pöyry
As tensions between Russia and Europe have increased over the situation in Ukraine, very real concerns have emerged regarding the security of gas supplies. Whilst there is a longer-term question of whether Europe should consider reducing European dependence on Russian gas, in this Point of View, Pöyry examines the potential short-term impacts of a curtailment in Russian gas supplies through Ukraine over the next winter.
The document discusses upstream developments and gas infrastructure implications in the Black Sea region. It provides an overview of exploration and production activities by major companies in Bulgarian and Romanian waters, including discoveries by Total, Shell, OMV, Repsol, Petroceltic, Carlyle, Lukoil, Exxon and OMV Petrom. It also mentions Turkey's plans to perform offshore drilling and seismic exploration in the Black Sea in coming years.
Russian LNG exports face both opportunities and challenges geopolitically. On one hand, LNG exports could open new markets and add flexibility to Russian gas supplies. However, it also faces competition from other LNG exporters and could undermine Russia's existing long-term gas supply contracts in Europe. Looking ahead, Russia will need to balance using LNG to enter new Asian markets while defending its dominant position in the European gas market through pipeline exports. The growth of shale gas and a potential second economic crisis also pose threats to Russian LNG ambitions.
Opal Of Discord. Why the EU supports Gazprom's anti-Ukrainian plans?Mariia Melnyk
1) The EU's recent decision to allow Gazprom to increase capacity on the German OPAL pipeline will allow Russia to supply more gas through Nord Stream and less through Ukraine, hurting Ukraine.
2) While the EU has investigated Gazprom for antitrust violations regarding market dominance and unfair pricing, decisions like OPAL signal the EU's ambiguity in balancing business and political interests.
3) Ukraine risks losing billions annually from less Russian gas transit and should strengthen its energy diplomacy and reforms to defend its interests and lobby the EU to block projects like Nord Stream 2 that undermine Ukraine.
Gas problems with russian and ukrainian indigestion Finallaskow30
Russia exports a large percentage of its gas, oil, and coal to the EU, with Ukraine controlling much of the pipeline infrastructure from Russia to Europe. This creates an interdependent relationship where disputes over gas prices and debts have led to crises affecting Russian and European gas supplies. Future pipelines like Nord Stream and South Stream aim to diversify supply routes, while Nabucco could transport gas without relying on Russia. For Ukraine to utilize its strategic position, it must address domestic problems like corruption and inefficient energy management.
With the beginning of the millennium,
Most of the world countries started to turn
toward the natural gas as an alternative
energy resource instead of crude oil and
harmless resource for the environment.

Gas problems with russian and ukrainian indigestionlaskow30
The document discusses the interdependence between Russia and the EU on energy imports and exports, with Russia exporting a majority of its gas, oil, and coal to the EU. It also summarizes the history of gas disputes between Russia and Ukraine, with 80% of Russian gas exports to Europe flowing through Ukrainian pipelines. The document outlines future pipeline projects like Nord Stream, South Stream, and Nabucco that could impact European energy security and Russian influence. It concludes by discussing possible paths forward for Ukraine in addressing its internal problems relating to corruption, legislation, energy management, and resource use.
Demand for cobalt from electric car battery manufacturers is expected to increase, supporting a ramp up in production at Eurasian Resources Group's cobalt mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Cobalt applications can be divided into chemical and metallurgical segments, with demand driven by its use in rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles and other technologies. Primary Information Services offers a database with information on cobalt mines, processing, patents, consultants, projects and the market.
While an agreement reached between Ukraine and Russia on gas supplies this winter was hailed by the European Commission, the deal may not solve all issues. Key elements include Ukraine repaying $3.1 billion of its gas debt to Russia in installments by end of year, and Russia providing gas at a reduced price until March. However, not all details are public and sources of payments are unclear. The EU says it will not pay Ukraine's debt, but the Ukrainian central bank and national gas company will pay initially, with EU taxpayers potentially having to pay the bill in the long run. The negotiated price is significantly lower than Russia's initial request, but sustainability of the deal is uncertain beyond this winter.
Southeastern Mediterranean hydrocarbons - A new energy corridor for the EU?Harris Samaras
The (a) confirmation of significant quantities of hydrocarbons in Cyprus, (b) the scientific estimates of equally significant quantities in the south and southwest of the Greek island of Crete and (c) the officially declared increased cooperation between Cyprus, Israel and Greece to jointly exploit their hydrocarbon deposits may prove to be a tremendous opportunity not only for Cyprus, Greece and Israel but for the EU as a whole.
World renowned scientists claim that the hydrocarbon deposits that lie south and southwest of the island of Crete are huge; and maybe bigger than those in the Levantine Basin; they dare to state that within the EEZ of Greece there may be as much as 51 tcm of natural gas! Could this lead into the making of a new energy corridor for the EU? Shouldn’t the EU be more actively involved in the efforts of its member countries, Greece and Cyprus? Isn’t this for the EU a project of Pan-European interest thus include it in its energy policy, coordinate and assist with technical knowhow but also with political leverage and other? As critical year 2020 is around the corner, aren’t the already scientific interpretations important enough to accelerate the EU think tanks and policy institutes view on the whole issue?
The document discusses how large shale gas deposits around the world could shift global geopolitics. The United States has vast shale gas resources that could make it more energy independent and allow it to export liquefied natural gas. This could reduce Europe's dependence on Russia for natural gas. Poland and Australia also have significant shale gas deposits that could increase their geopolitical influence. Countries without shale gas resources may lose power on the global stage.

This document discusses Europe's energy security challenges and its dependence on foreign energy suppliers like Russia. It notes that while the current economic crisis has reduced short-term energy demand, long-term issues remain like a growing global population, declining investment in new energy sources, and tougher environmental regulations. The document warns that by 2010-2011, energy demand will likely rebound just as many existing fields face depletion without new sources coming online. It presents Russia and Central Asia as key supplier regions but notes competition there from China and issues over developing new pipelines. The document argues Europe's plans to boost renewables and energy independence may not solve its future energy needs.

The effect of TAP pipeline for the Balkans, Turkey and Italian gas marketsARERA
The TAP pipeline will connect Caspian gas supplies to multiple European gas markets. It will connect Italy to Southeast European gas markets, allowing gas to flow both north and south. This will promote price convergence across the region. TAP can also supply gas to Bulgaria, Turkey, and beyond via interconnectors. The pipeline will increase supply security and diversification for receiving countries while opening new markets for Caspian gas producers.

Russia's gas pivot to Asia: a short-sighted policy or a long-term strategy?Olga Gerasimchuk
This presentation aims to examine the reasons which have prompted Russia to seek closer gas cooperation with Asia Pacific countries (mainly China), as well as hightlight its current gas pipeline and LNG projects in the East.
Gazprom has lowered its forecast for natural gas export prices to non-CIS markets in 2015 due to continued low crude oil prices, on which Gazprom's export contracts are indexed. Gazprom's previous forecast of $242/Mcm has been reduced to $235-242/Mcm. Some analysts advocate shifting Gazprom's long-term contracts to hub-based pricing to avoid constant renegotiation due to oil price volatility. With oil prices expected to remain low, Gazprom may face more calls to change its oil-indexation formula.
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is rapidly changing the structure of the global gas industry.
Flexible in transportation, safe in use, and competitive in supply, LNG today has already won more than 40% of the physical volume of world gas exports and is expected to reach 60% by 2040. In 2020, the development of the LNG market underwent significant transformations, as the COVID-19 pandemic posed a challenge to the global economy.
Caspian sea energy geopolitics – litmus test for u.s., russia, china control ...mmangusta
The document discusses the geopolitical competition over control of Caspian Sea energy resources between the US, Russia, China, and EU states. It notes that significant oil and gas reserves in Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan could provide alternative energy supplies for Europe but would require new infrastructure like the Nabucco and Trans-Caspian pipelines. Russia seeks to counter these projects and control Central Asian exports through Gazprom contracts and new pipelines like South Stream. The outcome of this competition will determine which power gains control over Eurasia. Kazakhstan pursues cooperation with all sides but seeks multiple export routes to maintain independence.
This document provides an overview of recent developments in natural gas exploration and production in the Eastern Mediterranean region, with three key points:
1. The major discovery of the Zhor gas field by ENI in Egypt has significant implications for the region, as it could make Egypt energy self-sufficient and reduce its LNG imports.
2. This discovery challenges plans by Cyprus and Israel to export gas to Egypt, as Egypt may no longer need these imports. It also delays further exploration drilling in Cyprus.
3. Cooperation between Cyprus and Israel on exporting their gas to Europe via a pipeline may now become more important, but many political and commercial challenges remain.
Gazprom’s competition on the domestic market increases its reliance on Europe...ICIS
This document discusses the changing structure of the Russian natural gas market and Gazprom's position within it. It notes that Gazprom's domestic market share has declined from 90% in 2006 to 73% in 2013 as independent producers have increased production. It also discusses the challenges Gazprom faces from political rivals in Russia, the rising role of independent producers, and Gazprom's efforts to expand export markets while maintaining its position in Europe.

The document discusses Europe's increasing reliance on energy imports and the geopolitical issues this presents. It notes that most of Europe's natural gas comes from Russia via pipelines running through Ukraine and Belarus, and that Russia has halted gas flows during pricing disputes, leaving countries without heat in winter. The EU is seeking to diversify its energy sources by projects like Nabucco pipeline to reduce dependence on Russia, but these alternatives can only meet a small part of demand. Russia is also building new pipelines like Nord Stream that bypass transit states, strengthening its position as Europe's main energy supplier.

Key Priorities of Extraction Industry Reforms: Focus on Natural Gasdixigroup
Ukraine has significant natural gas potential but production is currently underutilized. The government aims to increase domestic production from 20 to 28 billion cubic meters by 2020 through reforms. Reforms already undertaken include reducing permitting requirements and introducing a new stimulating tax system. However, further steps are needed to improve the permitting system and fully attract investment to unlock Ukraine's natural gas resources.
The document summarizes the South Stream Pipeline project which will transport natural gas from Russia to Europe through the Black Sea. It will consist of an offshore pipeline section running through the Black Sea reaching depths of 2,200 meters, as well as several onshore sections connecting to countries in Southeastern Europe. The offshore pipeline is being developed by an international joint venture and will set new standards with its large transport capacity of 63 billion cubic meters of gas per year and ability to operate at great depths.
The document discusses proposed liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects in British Columbia that could represent over $150 billion in investment. It outlines six proposed LNG terminals located in Prince Rupert and Kitimat with a total capacity of 96.7 million tonnes per annum. Three major pipelines totalling over 2,700 km would need to be built to transport natural gas from the fields to the terminals. The large infrastructure investment required and growing Asian demand for LNG could spark a major investment and construction boom, benefiting Canadian energy and construction companies involved in building the terminals and pipelines.
The IER has released the new issue of the Macroeconomic Monitoring of Ukraine (MEMU), which outlines key figures, trends, and events of July 2023.
According to the IER estimate, real gross value added (GVA) in agriculture increased by almost 5%
yoy primarily due to the lower statistical base of July 2022.
The grain harvest in July was close to last year due to higher yields.
The flooding of territories in June due to the destruction of the Kakhovka dam by russians slowed the pace of crop recovery.
The mining industry grew insignificantly compared to last year.
At the same time, we estimate that the processing industry grew by more than 20% yoy due to the recovery of all sectors from a low base.
The growth rate of real GVA in transport slowed to 9% yoy, while the GVA in trade continued to grow rapidly (about 27% yoy).
However, the real GVA was significantly lower than in 2021 in all sectors.
The growing export of Russian coal is impeded by the deficit of port cargo handling capacities on the most demanded directions. At the same time, the intensity of investments in terminal infrastructure depends on a variety
of factors, some of which are extremely important, while not obvious without a deep, professional analysis.
The document provides an economic summary of Ukraine for April 2023. Some key points:
- Real GDP is estimated to have grown 22% year-over-year in April due to an absence of electricity shortages.
- Ukraine received a record amount of international financial support of $5.6 billion in April, helping to boost international reserves.
- Inflation fell below 20% year-over-year for the first time since June 2022.
- Exports declined in April due to problems with the Black Sea grain initiative and temporary import bans by neighboring countries.

Ukraine
No. 224, September 2023
The IER has released the new issue of the Macroeconomic Monitoring of Ukraine (MEMU), which outlines key figures, trends, and events of August 2023.
According to the current forecast of the IER, prepared under the support of Berlin Economics, real GDP will grow by 4.1% in 2023.
For 2024, the recovery rate is expected at 5.5%, assuming active hostilities will cease in the middle of the year, international financial assistance will continue, and seaports will resume operation.
In August, consumer inflation slowed down to 8.6% yoy returned to a single-digit level for the first time in more than two years and amounted to.
In August, electricity imports (commercial and emergency assistance) increased by 57.6% to 115.6 thousand MWh. At the same time, exports remained minimal. The end of the heat wave in early September allowed Ukraine to resume electricity exports during surplus hours.

Political risks in Global Energy: from "Resource Nationalism" to "Molecules o...energystate
This document summarizes the changing political risks associated with the global energy sector. It discusses how the concept of "resource nationalism" dominated in the 1970s-1990s as countries sought control over their oil and gas reserves. However, factors like the U.S. shale revolution and green revolution have reshaped the energy politics landscape in recent years. The shale boom reduced fears of dependence on state-controlled exporters by making the U.S. a major producer. Meanwhile, climate policies are being used increasingly as a political tool in Europe against hydrocarbon suppliers like Russia. Overall the political and economic dynamics around global energy are evolving in complex ways.

Европейский союз упорно пытается применить модель либеральных рынков, которая работает в условиях реального и длительного переизбытка предложения газа. У евро¬пейцев возникает иллюзия «газового волшебства»: они уверены, что применение новой модели ценообразования неизбежно станет ключом к успеху. Однако они забывают, что в основе должен лежать постоянный и увеличивающийся профицит предложения. А с ним-то как раз и возникают трудности.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
