1. Russia Diversifies Gas Export Markets -
Increasing Focus on Asia to Offset Potential
Decline in Supply to Europe
"Russia Diversifies Gas Export Markets - Increasing Focus on Asia to Offset Potential Decline in Supply
to Europe", is the latest report from industry analysis specialists GlobalData that provides an in-depth
analysis on Russia's diversification of its gas export markets to Asia-Pacific as Europe takes initiatives to
decrease its dependence on Russian gas. The report provides a comprehensive study of the major
reasons behind Europe's diversification initiatives and discusses Russia's efforts to maintain its European
gas supplier status. The report details how the status of natural gas has changed from being a strategic
product to a leverage product in Europe. Europe is a key export market for Russia and the former has
been heavily dependent on Russian gas supplies. However, over the past few years, European countries
have been trying to diversify their gas supply sources in order to maintain their energy security. Russia, in
turn, is planning to diversify its gas export markets to make up for the potential decrease in gas offtake in
Europe.
