KIEV, Sept. 21 – Naftogaz Ukrainy in 2015 will lose UAH 6 billion due to subsidized prices of gas used for heating households, Chairman Andriy Kobolev said.

"If we take the average price of imported gas [in 2015], which is very optimistic, $250 per 1,000 cubic meters, the total loss of Naftogaz in 2015 would be UAH 6 billion," he said in the parliament on September 18.

He said that the average price at which Naftogaz Ukrainy sells gas for the needs of households and heating providers to households is slightly more than UAH 3,000 (VAT not included).
