ArmInfo. Since 7 August Georgian Oil and Gas Corporation has reduced
the volume of natural gas supply to Armenia without warning for
30%. At the same time Gazprom fully ensures the volume of natural
gas supply to South Caucasus, press-secretary of CJSC "ArmRosgazprom"
Shushan Sardaryan told ArmInfo correspondent.
Specialists of Oil and Gas Corporation of Georgia explain the situation
by the fact that at present test is being held at the gas pipeline
with 700 mm diameter of the pipe and this requires gas pressure rising
in the system.
The volumes of natural gas which were not received by Armenia are
being supplied from the underground gas storage.
