The newly re -elected chairman of the Board of Directors of the Gas Monopolist Medvedev on the same day made a series of applications for the anger of the day.

Gazprom does not negotiate on the purchase of part of the TNK -BP shares: “There is no need to talk about anything like that,” Medvedev explained. The Gazprom’s agreements with TNK-BP for entering the development of the Kovyktinsky deposit, he appreciated as “useful”: “such alliances for Gazprom are useful, taking into account its image as a large international player.” Medvedev is sure that Gazprom will be able to agree with the TKN-BP on the creation of the joint venture on equal terms. " A joint venture must be created within a year, the assessment of assets introduced into it by both parties is $ 3 billion. But while Gazprom and TNK-BP have not agreed on the price of the acquisition of Gazprom Rusia Petroleum.

Medvedev also believes that the association of the assets of Gazprom and SUEK does not create monopolistic problems, and the transaction itself "is aimed at improving the structure of energy consumption in the country."

Gazprom is negotiating with SUEK regarding the possible unification or creation of SP. The Siberian Coal Energy Company is the largest coal association in the Russian Federation and the only domestic company included in the top ten leaders of the global coal market. The company provides 31% of energy coal supply in the domestic market and more than a quarter of the country's coal export.

Dmitry Medvedev proposed "philosophically" to the European partners of the concern to the entry of the Russian gas giant into European markets. He considers the fears that arise in Europe in this regard "excessive emotions." Medvedev noted that the Russian company intends to "attend all the links of this energy system, and not just in terms of deliveries."

The term of preparation of the technical and economic justification of the South Stream project will be 6-9 months, the Deputy Prime Minister said. The first gas for the project may begin to arrive in 3-4 years. Gazprom and the Italian ENI signed an agreement on the beginning of the implementation of the South Stream project , which provides for laying a gas pipeline from the Russian territory from the Beregovaya compressor station along the bottom of the Black Sea to Burgas. Further, two branches will be dispersed from the main pipe - to Austria and to the north of Italy.

Medvedev confirmed that Gazprom will participate in the procedure for obtaining a license for Sakhalin-3 and the Chayanda field, but "on equal terms with the rest." Gazprom is ready and will participate in all the procedures established by law, the concern "does not intend to operate its image of a heavy player." “Our task is to ensure equal rights to everyone who is interested in obtaining licenses. It should be a calm and absolutely equal situation for all participants,” he assured.
