YAKUTIA.INFO. the Deputy of State Assembly (Il Tumen) Yakutia Victor Fedorov intends to understand validity of gas prices in Yakutia. He declared it at a meeting with Internet community last Thursday.
On action one of bloggers took an interest: whether really to reduce gas cost in the republic. In particular, whether it is possible to make it an influence way on "The Yakut fuel and energy company", as supplier of natural gas.
"The cost of gas consists for 75 percent from transport expenses is "Sakhatransneftegaz", and only for 25 percent from the cost of production is "YaTEK", - Fedorov commented. - "YaTEK" to us will not make weather – we have a question in gas transportation. Everything, as for the budget and price control, is subject to control. I agree that it is necessary to estimate prime cost and selling cost of production of "Sakhatransneftegaz".
Now the OFAS will deal with this issue, I am ready to connect to check Audit Chamber of the republic by the end of the year. And in October of this year I am ready to include this question in the agenda of meeting of Committee (on economic, investment and industrial policy, business, tourism and infrastructure development – Yakutia. Info)".
Let's remind that the question of tariffs for gas and the electric power will be considered by the Public advisory board at the Yakut OFAS in June of this year. The head of department Yury Ignatyev reported about this at meeting the Public advisory board on Thursday April 7.
Earlier we repeatedly covered a strange situation with tariffs for natural gas for the population. So, for today the price of production of natural gas of gas by calculations of the extracting company – JSC YaTEK - makes 1627 rubles (with the VAT – 1919 rubles). Thus the cost of natural gas for cooking from the supplier – JSC Sakhatransneftegaz: the city – 8 268,40 rubles, the village – 6 594,90 rubles.
That is the extra charge from "STNG" almost exceeds the cost of production of production three times. Let's note that "Sakhatransneftegaz" is the 100 percent republican company.
