Ukrainian company challenged the tariff for gas transit through the territory of the country.

July 6, 2018 “Naftogaz of Ukraine” filed in the Stockholm arbitration claim to revise the tariff for the transit contract with “Gazprom”. This reports the press service of the Ukrainian company.

In the “Naftogaz” explained that the contract between the two companies allows them to demand revision of the tariff, if the European gas market has undergone significant changes and if the rate does not correspond to the European level. “In its decision of 28 February 2018 the Stockholm arbitration court for procedural reasons dismissed the claim “Naftogaz” on the revision of the tariff. Thus, the requirement of “Naftogaz” on the revision of the rate in fact remained unresolved,” explained the claim in the NAC.
