According to Bulgarian Minister of Energy Temenuzhka Petkova, there was no reason to worry tensions between Russia and Ukraine would affect gas supplies to this country. She added that currently supplies of blue fuel have the usual parameters. She pointed out that Bulgaria has a reverse flow contract with Greece. Also, there are about 450 million cubic meters of gas in the Chiren gas storage facility. If it became necessary to use gas from Chiren at maximum yield, these quantities will be enough for 90-100 days.
