LNG

Oct 12 (LNGJ) - The Austrian river port of Vienna is one of the largest on the Danube River and will be the subject of growing LNG fuel use for barges, even as Austria remains dependent on Russian pipeline natural gas. Gazprom Chairman Alexey Miller has visited Austria for talks with Chancellor Christian Kern in Vienna and it was noted that Austrian gas imports from Russia rose 11.5 percent in 2015 and from January through October 2016, Russian gas supplies to Austria totalled 4.18 billion cubic metres, 23.8 percent higher than in the same period of 2015.
