Brussels — The European Commission has threatened to take Romania to court over alleged illegal restrictions on exporting natural gas unless the country's government responds within two months, the watchdog of the EU treaties said Thursday.
Romania's energy law obliges gas producers to prioritize sales to the local market before exports, a restriction which is said to be delaying a final investment decision on the estimated 42-84 Neptun gas field in the Black Sea.
OMV Petrom, which shares ownership of Neptun with ExxonMobil, said last week that "the current legislative environment does not provide the necessary pre-requisites for a multi-billion dollar decision." The EC has sent Romania a new formal warning, following up from a prior warning five years ago, that restricting gas trade between EU countries breaches EU internal gas market rules on free movement of goods.
It said an obligation to give priority to domestic customers "creates unjustified barriers" to gas exports, and has told Romania to change this.
Romania has two months to respond to the EC's arguments. If the EC is not satisfied with the response, it may decide to refer the case to the EU Court of Justice.
The ECJ has the power to impose fines on EU governments that it finds are breaking EU rules.
Romania produces about 90% of its annual gas demand of around 11 /year, with the remainder imported from Russia.
New production from the Black Sea would eliminate the need for imports from Russia and could make Romania an exporter of gas to the wider southeast European region.The country is developing a new export route -- the BRUA corridor -- which would take Romanian offshore gas via Hungary to Slovakia and potentially to the Baumgarten gas hub in Austria.
The first phase of the project is due to be completed in October, while the second phase will only be built if significant gas resources are developed in the Black Sea.
That would be nice to be paid for exporting gas to whole Europe, however , if it happens my people will get nothing as reward and the pockets of big corporations will just be bigger.
Despite the fact that we produce our own natural gas , guess what ? We are paying MORE for gas than France, UK, Germany. ( nearly 25% more for past few months )
And that because the
OMV Petrom S.A ( corporation) , which extracts most of the gas from Romania (
OMV Petrom SA is owned as follows : Austria's OMV Group 51% and Romania s Petrom 20% and other natural and legal persons the rest ) throttled down the gas extraction so we're forced to pay more because of the demand ( high) and supply ( low) . Isn't that something to look at in awe ?? I am fucking looking at this in awe !!! Are you awed ??
