The Urengoy-Pomary-Uzhgorod or âBrotherhoodâ natural gas pipeline in the Poltava region of central Ukraine has gone up in flames. It is the largest consumer gas pipeline in Europe supplying gas to the Czech Republic, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Hungary and countries in the Balkans. The pipeline stretches 2,800 miles from Siberiaâs Urengoy gas field through Ukraine to Europe. According to witnesses flames from the ruptured pipeline reached 200 meters high.
Europe without Russian gas through Ukraine (ca. 70 billion cubic metres per year) is tantamount to Northeast Asia without Japanâs entire nuclear power fleet. So, what will happen to European gas markets, should Moscow stop using Ukrainian pipelines after 2019? First, Europe might be left without Russian gas going through Ukraine by the early 2020s. The implications of this scenario may be rather dramatic for Europe, had we not lived through a period of rising energy demand, and by implication prices, post-Fukushima.
