It doesn't add up for me. Central Asian sources are less than 1.5% of GazProm total production, and Gas production of Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan is dwarfed by Russian fields. Further, output from Russian fields in Siberia is on the decline and new fields are being developed in the Yamal Peninsula to replace these, so no Soviet era oil rigs at all.

- kgeist 5y agoI'm from Russia and it's the first time I hear that almost all Russian gas actually comes from Kazakhstan, considering that my hometown literally sits on a pipe which connects Western Siberia to Europe. Sounds like some conspiracy theory to me, honestly. But I'm ready to change my mind if you provide some links.
