Ukraine’s state-owned gas transit company informed that 40 foreign traders had been actively using its gas storage services in April-September this year. The Operator of Gas Transit Systems of Ukraine (OGTSU) said that major European energy companies are among the customers that have contracted to store natural gas in Ukraine’s underground storage facilities.

OGTSU has signed 25 new deals with foreign firms for gas storage and transit services in 2023, bringing the total number of international clients above 130.
