Now that they have more options, Europe doesn't automatically benefit from the excess. Why is it always me who has to Google for you, you lazy bourgeois Westerners? Behold, a coarse map of Gazprom's pipeline grid Where to prioritize the development? Obviously, to Asia. Europe with its playing hard to get games is going to see its lot diverted east soon enough. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notsonice + 1,255 DM October 5, 2021 A record year for exports by Gazprom? Looks like they are matching 2018. Nope Gazprom is not holding back.... Demand is outstripping supply....That is what happens when a recession ends and pent up demand goes thru the roof........Existing Pipelines running at full capacity? what is the maximum capacity of all of Gazproms pipelines to Europe? Nordstream 2 to the rescue to bump up the numbers even more? Does Russia have more gas drilled and ready to ramp up to 250 BCM in the near future as Nordstream 2 is adding 55 BCM in capacity Natural gas exports made to countries outside the former Soviet Union by Gazprom Export (billion cubic meters): Year 1973 1975 1980 1985 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Total 6.8 19.3 54.8 69.4 110.0 117.4 130.3 154.3 138.6 158.6 178.3 192.2 200.8 198.97 174.9 EXPORTS * Russian energy giant Gazprom says its gas exports outside the former Soviet Union jumped more than 15% for January to the end of September to 145.8 billion cubic meters (bcm), the second-highest level for the period behind a record 149.2 bcm in the first nine months of 2018. * The recently completed Nord Stream 2 pipeline from Russia to Germany has annual capacity of 55 bcm and the operator says it can deliver enough energy to supply 26 million households per year. * Russia also raised gas pipeline supplies to Turkey by 138% in the January to September period and to Germany by a third. Exports have also risen to Italy (14%), Romania (305.6%), Serbia (125.2%), Poland (11.2%), Bulgaria (52.5%), Greece (10.8%) and Finland (17.5%). * Gazprom expects its gas exports to Europe to rise this year to more than 183 bcm, up 6 bcm from 2020. * Gazprom's total natural gas production increased 17.3% to 378.1 bcm in the first nine months of the year while domestic supplies rose almost 16%, or 24 bcm, the company said.

What matters is 99.99% of the market that drive on public streets and don't care about going over 100mph. Again with the 7 year old cars, who cares? You guys are really pathetic with how you like to use massively out of date info to support your claims. Today you can order a Tesla Model 3 Performance for $55K that does 0-60 in 3.1 seconds. You don't seem to understand that I don't care about the Tesla and it's 0-60 at all. I could buy five Teslas for what my 812 cost. I don't want them and as to 7 year old cars, that's about the average age of cars on the road. My info isn't out of date, I compared like to like and if you do it now, I think the new 992 TTS does 0-60 in 2.2s, stock which is faster than the Tesla at 3.1s. https://fastestlaps.com/models/porsche-911-turbo-s-992 https://www.carindigo.com/tesla/model-s-electric/0to60 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markslawson + 1,057 ML October 5, 2021 On 10/5/2021 at 9:37 AM, Andrei Moutchkine said: The "existing pipeline" is not a pipeline, but the Ukrainian grid, which is in progressive state of disrepair and also the most expensive option. The Stockholm arbitrage ruled in favor of Ukraine and made Gazprom change the traditional take-or-pay contract (i.e. minimal volume commitment, or traditional Groeningen-model gas contract) to the effective opposite, pump-or-pay. Okay, I'm not challenging what you say but I'm not sure how that effects lack of supply. You seem to be arguing the merits of one pipeline or network over another, sparked by a point I mentioned in passing. Another poster commented the Russians were sending their gas elsewhere. I'm not arguing with that either, I just wanted an explanation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is ADDITIONAL supply that Gazprom actually does have in storage, but you cannot nab them for withholding any of the EXISTING supply. Because this year is going to close as their largest or second-largest (after 2018) volume year ever. Why should they be charitable to Europeans after having endured several years of unprecedented abuse heaped on them? Instead, could they profiteer from the situation. There is not much that they can do in the way of redirection to Asia yet, as the Western Siberian fields serving Europe and Far Eastern ones serving China and LNG trains serving rest of Asia Pacific are not interconnected yet. It is being worked on with high priority though. Once there, expect Gazprom to be diverting more and more gas in the direction of Asia, where they play by commercial rules, leaving Europe with a daunting task of inventing some kind of carbon tax on gaping void.

I'm guessing one in the EU, so the EU's planning is far better?? well I look forward to when Russia squeezes your balls on Nordstream 2 this winter!!!

Tesla Model S Plaid 2.0s for $130,000 NO, I gave you the price I paid for my car and what the Tesla cost at the time. Again, 0-60 is more about traction than performance and that is why the Turbo S with AWD is so fast off the line. The Tesla 3 dual motor is a nice little car but it's not comparable to the Porsche on any other performance measure. You can look at what I linked and then look around at the Tesla 3 numbers but as an example, the 100-200km/h time on the Porsche is 5.9s whereas on the Model 3 dual motor it's 11.9s. LOL! You really are clueless when it comes to performance measures. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was well aware of the power interconnectors and the North sea gas. Note this point from the material you linked .. However production from these fields is now in decline and we are importing more and more of our gas from abroad. That was the point I was making. While the gas supplies from the North sea have been declining, the UK hasn't been exploring for gas or developing fracking as it should, all while coal has been demonised. The interconnectors are there to shift power around the market - to make the market more efficient and as a back-up - but they are no substitute for domestic generation, and are subject to some good will from other nations who may also have their own energy problems.. Leave it with you.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
