Gazprom to sell natural gas to U.S.
From Times Wire Services
OAO Gazprom plans to start selling natural gas to the U.S. from Canada as Russia’s largest energy producer seeks to become a global supplier.
The Moscow company will use the planned Rabaska liquefied natural gas terminal in Quebec to establish its business in North America, said Vitaly Vasiliev, head of Gazprom Marketing & Trading in Britain.
Gazprom wants to expand its presence in North America by joining one of two competing pipeline projects to connect Alaska with the continental United States.
