European gas storage is overflowing - can Ukraine provide a lifeline?
Report summary
By the end of March, Europe still had 57 bcm of storage in place, a record by some distance for this time of year. This further weakens an already oversupplied summer market, as storage injections will be severely constrained. However, as suppliers and buyers look to place gas in the market there is potential to use the so far underutilised Ukrainian storage facilities to park some of this gas until the market improves either next winter of during following years. In this Insight we review the storage market and look at the possibility of using this capacity in Ukraine.
