Gazprom's stand MOSCOW, 2 Jan. MOSCOW, 2 Jan. Gazprom supplied 257.8 billion cubic meters of gas to the Russian domestic market in 2021, a maximum since 2013, said the head of the company, Alexey Miller, summing up the results of the past year. “As always, we have ensured reliable gas supply to consumers. According to preliminary information, Gazprom supplied 257.8 billion cubic meters of gas to the Russian market from the gas transmission system. This is the highest level since 2013. An increase in comparison with 2020 — by 31.9 billion cubic meters of gas, «Miller said. in the company's Telegram channel. The head of Gazprom also noted that the company exceeded its plans for the implementation in 2021 of the main social project — the development of gasification of Russian regions: it has built about 2.7 thousand kilometers of gas pipelines. Thus, residents of 342 settlements across the country got the opportunity to connect to gas. Large-scale gasification in Russia continues: plans and schedules for the synchronization of work for 2022 between Gazprom and the constituent entities of Russia have been signed, Miller said. The Russian government approved a roadmap in May. on the implementation of a socially oriented gasification system. It assumes a gradual increase in the country's gasification level from 71% in 2020 to 82.9% in 2030 and the creation of a fundamentally new model of this process. In addition to the main task of increasing gasification in the Russian Federation, the document also envisages the implementation in 2021-2022 of measures to accelerate the additional gasification of households in the already gasified constituent entities of the Russian Federation. In June, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law on free gas supply to household plots. A single gasification operator is responsible for bringing the gas pipeline to the borders of the land plots, which have been assigned the Gazprom Gasification Company in 67 constituent entities of the Russian Federation, as well as regional operators.
