Azerbaijan, Baku, April 14 / Trend E. Ismayilov /
Baku's system was supplied with 1.04 billion cubic meters of domestic gas by PU Bakgaz (distribution and sale of gas in Baku) in January-March, a source in PU close to supplies said on April 14.
Baku's system was supplied with 348 million cubic meters of gas in March compared to 306 million cubic meters of gas in February.
Presently, daily gas supply of Baku's gas system hits 8 million cubic meters, a source said.
"There are no restrictions in gas supply. Consumers use gas on their necessity," a source said.
Baku's system was supplied with 2.45 billion cubic meters of gas by PU in 2008.
PU refused from season gas supply (summer and winter seasons) in Baku's gas system in 2008. Volume of supplied gas is determined by consumers' demand. Introduction of season regime was connected with lack of gas meters among most part of population. As a result population used gas irrationally. Presently, 100 percent of users of Baku's system were provided with gas meters, a source said.
PU passed to summer regime of work from mid. of April in previous years. This regime of work envisages reduction of gas supply for users compared to winter period. Transfer to winter period was conducted from November 15. Daily gas supply hits 3-4 million cubic meters in summer but 10-13 million cubic meters in winter.
