There are no shortages or problems in supplying consumers with natural gas, Greece's Public Gas Corporation (DEPA) emphasised in an announcement on Thursday.

Despite the record high demand caused by recent low temperatures and the decrease in imports from Turkey's BOTAS, which cut off the supply completely on January 18, demand has been covered by increasing the amounts delivered via the Greek-Bulgarian pipeline and from the Liquefied Natural Gas station at Revythousa, DEPA said.

Specifically, the daily supply of Russian gas was increased above the maximum provided in the contract until January 31 based on an agreement with Russian Gazprom.

The company also came to an agreement with Algeria's Sonatrach to speed up delivery of a planned order of LNG to Revythousa, bringing it forward to January 25, as well as securing two additional loads of LNG to be delivered on January 22 and January 24.
