The Banatski Dvor UGS facility in Serbia is essential for securing the stability of supplies to European countries. The UGS facility (Gazprom – 51 per cent, Srbijagas – 49 per cent) is one of the largest gas storages in Southeastern Europe. Its working gas capacity makes up 450 million cubic meters and maximum deliverability – 5 million cubic meters per day.
