KYIV, April 26 – The state gas shipper Ukrtransgaz and Poland's Gaz-System S.A. have extended a non-binding market screening procedure for demand on the volume of natural gas that could be transported across Ukraine to Poland until June 8, 2018, the press service of the Ukrainian company has reported.

"The new deadline for submission of application would give enough time for market players to assess their interest in the capacity at the Polish-Ukrainian border in both directions and send the applications to the operators," the company said.
