Russia is burning off large amounts of natural gas that could be supplied to Europe, a research company has said.

Rystad Energy said satellite monitoring shows that since 11 July, Russia has been "flaring" large volumes of gas at the Portovaya LNG facility close to the Finnish border.

It said the amount being burned was about 0.5% of the EU's annual requirements.

Instead of being flared, the gas could be supplied to Germany through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, Rystad said.

The pipeline is currently running at just 20% capacity, it added.
The company questioned Russia's "intent when it comes to gas exports to Europe which are down 77% year-on-year so far in August".

That is "equivalent to over 20% of EU demand", it added.

Flaring is a process during which flammable gas is burned off for technical or safety reasons.

But the levels of flaring at Portovaya appear to be significantly higher than expected.

Rystad added: "If the Portovaya facility was a standalone gas field, it would be on the top five list of largest fields flaring globally.

"The flaring is an environmental disaster with around 9,000 tonnes of CO2 being emitted daily."

Even with that, we are still moving to the new dispensation (UK) by JAPA-ing.

Living in the UK is still a thousand times better than living in this hellfire called Nigeria. Average wage is over £2,100 a month or £25,200 a year.

In the wake of Russia's war against Ukraine, U.S. President Joe Biden promised to enact strict sanctions to cripple Russia's economy, however, the U.S. continues to import raw materials and other items, which add up over $1B billion per month.
USA government said it’s important for the USA citizens and USA still exports over $2B as of August 25th.

How can USA isolate Russia when same USA still import from Russia.
