The Gas and Transport Company of Georgia officially declared in
the morning of January that the supply of natural gas to Armenia
was temporarily suspended because of reconstruction works on the
Ghazakh-Saguramo gas pipeline.

"HayRusGazard" Company informed Radiolur that a group of experts of
the company has been sent to Georgia to familiarize with the situation
and provide assistance if necessary.

"Georgian partners assure that the works will be completed as soon
as possible. According to the data of the "HayRusGazard" Board, gas
will be supplied from reserves at the expense of the gas stored in
an underground store. The suspension of gas supply will not lead to
changes in the gas consumption market," the Company assures.
