Natural gas in Europe cheaper by more than 30% last month

In December of last year, the average spot market price of natural gas in Europe according to the TTF index (Netherlands’ Title Transfer Facility, Europe’s most liquid virtual trading hub) was $9.48 per 1 million BTU (British thermal unit).

Elchi.az reports this with reference to the report of the Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF).

Thus, the price of gas in Europe decreased by 8% on a monthly basis and 31% on an annual basis in December.

Let us remind you that the transportation of Azerbaijani gas to Europe via the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) started on December 31, 2020.

It should be noted that more than 54 billion cubic meters of gas have been transported to Europe via TAP so far.
