Sulík after the crisis staff meeting: Are oil and gas supplies to Slovakia endangered ?! – NEW TIME

“At the moment, we have not seen any decline in oil supplies from Russia,” Sulík said at a press conference. Slovakia has oil and oil products in storage for the next hundred days. In the event of the cessation of oil supplies from Russia, Slovnaft will secure oil supplies via the Adria oil pipeline, which goes to Slovakia from Hungary. “The situation is stable with oil,” Sulík said.

Even in the case of gas supplies, Slovakia has not experienced any outages so far. “Gas supplies are not interrupted. Even shipping volumes have been increased compared to last week. The terms and conditions are complied with. The third stress test proved that we have no problems with gas, “said Karol Galek, State Secretary at the Ministry of Economy.

According to him, Slovakia also has sufficiently diversified gas routes to Slovakia. We can rely on reverse gas flow from Austria or the Czech Republic. We can also bring gas through the Slovak-Hungarian gas pipeline. “During March, the ship will run with LNG, which will allow us to cover gas consumption during the entire heating season,” Galek said, noting that there is a sufficient amount of gas in the underground gas storage facilities.
