Russian gas giant Gazprom (MOEX: GAZP) and Ukraine's national oil and gas company Naftogaz Ukrainy signed an additional to the contract concerning the purchase of Russian gas, its delivery, amount, and transit terms of January 19, 2009 on Tuesday, with the two countries' presidents on hand, an Interfax correspondent reported from the signing ceremony.
The particulars of the document are not yet available.
Over the four years of the contract's life, 28 additions have already been signed - almost every month and a half. The announced additions were associated with the payment schedule and forex payment for gas deliveries.
"As you have seen, Gazprom and Naftogaz Ukraine have signed an amendment that allows Gazprom - which it intends to do - to sell gas to Ukraine at a price of $268.50 for 1,000 cubic metres. As you know, that price now is around $400," Putin said after Kremlin talks with Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych.
