Naftogaz' share on industrial gas market cut to 7%

A share of Naftogaz of Ukraine NJSC in the industrial sector of the Ukrainian gas market has lowered to 7% and mostly comprises the consumers who do not pay for gas or delay payment, Naftogaz Commercial Director Yuriy Vitrenko has stated at a press conference, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“All the so-called preferences of Naftogaz are associated with the performance of special duties imposed on us and resulting in losses. Everything is exemplified by facts: our market share in the industrial sector, where people earn money, has lowered to 7%. And these are the consumers who do not pay in fact or pay later than required,” Vitrenko said.

According to him, fighting against Naftogaz as a monopolist is shadow and promotes the interests of specific private owners.
