Russia’s Gazprom PJSC agreed with China National Petroleum Corp. to ramp up gas flows on the Power of Siberia pipeline to maximum capacity by year’s end, ahead of schedule.
“In line with a request from Chinese partners, the parties agreed on additional supplies for December,” Gazprom said in a statement on Telegram. That “will ensure an early increase in daily gas supplies to China via the Power of Siberia pipeline to the maximum contract level,” previously targeted for early 2025.
