Russian gas producer Gazprom has cut off gas supplies to Denmark’s Orsted and to Shell Energy for its contract to supply gas to Germany, it said on Wednesday, citing the companies’ failure to make payments in rubles.
Gazprom has already halted supplies to Dutch gas trader GasTerra, as well as to Bulgaria, Poland, and Finland after their refusal to pay for gas in Russian rubles, as demanded by Moscow in response to Western sanctions over the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
