Uzbekistan cuts gas exports to China
Uzbekistan has been reducing natural gas exports to China for two months in a row, according to data from the PRC General Administration of Customs, Azernews reports, citing Kun.uz News Agency.
In September, Uzbekistan’s monthly gas supplies to China amounted to $41.62 million, almost halving compared to August. Compared to the July figure, gas supplies fell by 2.2 times.
Turkmenistan is still the major supplier of blue fuel to China with $7.41 billion worth of gas in nine months, followed by Russia ($4.98 billion), Myanmar ($1.21 billion), and Kazakhstan ($949 million).
Lately, Uzbekistan is concentrating more on gas imports than exports. In September, for example, the republic increased blue fuel imports from Turkmenistan and in October, started importing gas from Russia through Kazakhstan.
