KYIV, May 30 – The coordination council on reforming the fuel and energy complex has proposed that public joint-stock company Trunk Pipelines of Ukraine are transferred to management of national energy company Naftogaz Ukrayiny with the start of independent operations of the company in 2020, a source in the government has told Interfax-Ukraine.
"At today's meeting of the coordination council, we considered a number of scenarios for unbundling - the algorithm was chosen as the base one, in which Trunk Pipelines of Ukraine is transferred to the management of Naftogaz, it receives assets [the gas transportation system], it is certified as a GTS operator, and after the contract with Gazprom expires, since January 1, 2020, Trunk Pipelines of Ukraine will be withdrawn from the management of Naftogaz and begin to work independently," the source said.
