Department of state: U.S. until not directly supply gas to Ukraine

USA until will not be able to directly supply gas to Ukraine, Because it does not have the necessary capacity To do this, said the special envoy And coordinator for international energy issues, the chief of the Bureau of energy resources in the State Department Amos, Hochstein.
He said That To US does not matter, what will be the molecules of this gas." Most importantly, it will definitely affect the supply of gas everywhere, " he said Hochstein. It is expected That the amount of exported gas will grow over time." we haven't finished export capacity. 1st terminal will be ready to start exporting by the end of 2015. Others will be put into use Within the next three to five years, "said Hochstein, according to" Zerkalo Nedeli "." The first exports go to Japan, and India. But you remember: every time someone buys American gas, means That He will not buy Russian or other gas, which means, increases the amount that can be delivered in the European Union. And in the end it may affect rates, for example For Ukraine. As for the direct supply of liquefied gas to Ukraine, For this you need power For his reception, regasification terminal or installation. And that's just the problem. Because certain countries do not want to miss the liquefied gas through the Bosporus, " said the Commissioner of the state Department. As reported in the print edition GLANCE, Brussels insists on the need to implement the idea of supply in the European Union American LNG. The European Commissioner for energy And climate Miguel arias Ca?ete in the framework discussed in the present agreement on trade And investment between the EU And the United States (TTIP) made a motion to introduce transatlantic free trade in gas. In March last year, the head of Barack Obama claimed That will permit the export of gas to the European Union to release its gas from Russia. However, since practical steps in this direction Washington never did. According to the results of specialist expertise, delivery American LNG in the European Union have the opportunity to start far beyond 2020. For a start, the U.S. should allow the export of gas, which is currently prohibited. However, this increases the probability of the reduction to the deficit of natural gas And higher prices for it in the States themselves. Plus, Both the United States And Europe still have to build the infrastructure For sending And receiving LNG.
