DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Russia in Struggle for European Gas Market" report to their offering.
The European gas market is in depression. The whole set of various factors, both subjective and objective, has led to negative dynamic of the demand.
Decrease in domestic production and fears of Brussels of enhanced dependence on imports provide powerful psychological pressure on policies in the gas sphere.
Quite high gas prices under long-term contracts linked to oil prices amid the crisis in the Eurozone and substantial state support to alternative energy sources reduce consumption of natural gas creating the effect of the excessive supply.
This situation is developing on the background of uncertainty in the sphere of regulation of infrastructure projects, which in the future will create additional risks for expansion of gas consumption and normal functioning of the market. Besides, Gazprom is facing antimonopoly prosecution by the European Commission.
