Situation on the gas market and prospects for cooperation between Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan
Oil and gas market analysts have noted a surge in natural gas prices on European trading floors. The cost of 1,000 cubic meters of natural gas for delivery in July peaked at $ 464, the highest spot price since March 2018. Hot weather, which has settled in European countries since the beginning of summer, has spurred the demand for "blue fuel" for electricity generation. At the same time, the region still feels the effects of a cold winter that devastated the underground storage facilities. According to media reports, they are now less than 49% filled, which is below the average for the previous five years.
