MOSCOW, April 29 (Itar-Tass) – 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 economic news agency PRIME-TASS 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.
