U.K. Sees Flat Winter Gas Use Amid Minimal Ukraine Risk – Bloomberg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

U.K. natural gas demand this winter will be little changed from last year and Britain will be able to withstand a potential cut in Russian supply to\u00a0Europe<\/a>, according to National Grid Plc.<\/p>\n

Gas use<\/a>\u00a0in the six-month period from October will be unchanged from last year on a weather-corrected basis and 1.9 percent more than actual use, the Warwick, England-based network manager said today in its\u00a0Winter Outlook<\/a>. Increased liquefied natural gas imports would be able to meet normal winter demand should Russian flows to the European Union be disrupted.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnder all curtailment scenarios we have sufficient transmission network capacity\u201d in case Russian supplies are limited, the report said. \u201cHowever, it is likely that we could require increased deliveries of LNG.\u201d<\/p>\n

Russia, the EU\u2019s biggest single source of gas, halted supplies to Ukraine in June in a debt and price dispute that echoed those of 2006 and 2009, when transit flows to the region were disrupted. While the U.K. doesn\u2019t directly receive Russian gas, an escalation of the conflict that impacts supply to the region would affect flows across Europe, the grid said.<\/p>\n
