Russian gas exports to Europe jump 22

Gazprom's average daily natural gas supplies ‌to Europe via the Turkish Stream gas pipeline that transports Russian gas to Europe via Türkiye rose 22% from a year earlier to 55 million cubic meters in March.

Calculations by Reuters based on data from European gas transmission ​group Entsog showed total Russian gas supplies to Europe via TurkStream stood ‌at ⁠1.7 billion cubic meters last month, up from 1.4 bcm in March 2025.

Supplies were broadly steady from February. For the first three months of the year, exports increased 11% year-over-year ​to around ​5 bcm.

The company's gas exports ​to ⁠Europe fell 44% last year to just 18 bcm, the lowest since the mid-1970s, following the closure of the Ukrainian route, ⁠according ​to Reuters calculations.

Supplies increased as the Strait of Hormuz, which ​normally carries around 20% of global crude, products ⁠and liquefied natural gas, was effectively closed to most shipping ​due to the Iran war, leaving energy markets dangerously exposed.
