Russia expects the price of its natural gas exports will more than double this year compared to a year ago, according to an economy ministry forecast seen by Reuters.
This year's average price is now seen at $730 per 1,000 cubic meters, up 140% from 2021 and up 39% from the Kremlin's previous forecast for 2022.
European gas prices have skyrocketed since Russia's invasion of Ukraine as state-run energy giant Gazprom reduces flows via the Nord Stream pipeline.
After this year, Russia sees its gas export prices retreating to $471.8 in 2023 per 1,000 cubic meters, $383.9 in 2024 and $331.6 in 2025 — though they will still be above pre-invasion levels.

“$80B will replace a lot of old Warsaw Pact junk with the latest Chicom military tech.”

*White Diaper Station spokeswoman Karine Jean Pierre thinks that Nordstrom 1 got shut down - doesn't apparently know what "Nordstream 1" is.

Forbes calculated that between the start of the war on February 24 to its six-month point on August 24, Russia lost 12,142 pieces of equipment worth $16.56 billion. The total does not include Russian missiles, it said.
Is that $80 billion after a 50% reduction in shipments due to lack of transport capacity?
And does the price cited for this year include the discounts to China, Japan, India, etc.?
Britain’s new PM has also opened up fracking. A very good move.
That’s using dollars already in the bank (Putin’s been making money hand over fist) to date plus current shipment projections for the rest of the year at current prices. By far and away, the most likely change would be increased prices driven by the lunatics in Brussels and DC resulting in increased Russian profits.
This is pretty cool for Russia. They can produce 1/3 the natural gas and get paid the same as before.
Russia should continue this.
Sanctions never looked so good!
Putin will?
This is likely to escalate things dramatically. We are ruled by “deep state” fools...:-(
