Syria's natural gas output is not high, this will need to be imported, in the European Union and the United States on the oil sector after sanctions against Syria, the gas shortages became a real crisis.
DaiMa er is a family woman, she has been for two days in this is located in the center of the QiZhan Damascus west mazar-e can wait for change. "Yesterday didn't change, today early in the morning I again come. Three car every day to the natural gas QiZhan, probably can change 2000 cans of it." DaiMa er said. Here in the tank, vendors have soldiers, but most are ordinary citizens. A taxi driver told a reporter, now every family can only rationing every month a can of natural gas, and cooking more half a month were used up, next only to buy the black market.
Since last Syria domestic situation since the unrest, natural gas shortage become common people most concern about the topic. In the center of the open dessert shop mansour said, natural gas prices lead to cost is too high, and had to send the workers go home business.
Syria oil and mineral resources minister Sophie Anne alou May 23 to reporters, at present the Syria of every day for natural gas production 900 tons, and the actual demand for 2200 tons, the government is unable to ensure sufficient supply.
Syria is not to isolate and natural gas waste things, it involves Syria's oil industry, transportation and marketing MVP and so on each link, is the current Syria fragile embodies the people's livelihood.
The Syrian government think, European and American sanctions are led to the gas crisis is the main reason. According to alou introduction, Europe and the United States since last September to impose sanctions on Syria, specific to petrochemical field, on the one hand, is to stop the Syria of petrochemical products direct import and export, on the other hand it is frozen in petrochemical industry to a bank of Syria credit of company issued proof that lead to Syria in the international market is difficult to trading oil and gas. In addition, European and American also threatens international oil and transportation company, forcing it to stop the petrochemical trade with Syria. Be worth what carry is, since September, Syria in oil and derivatives field for Europe and the loss of sanctions has amounted to $4 billion, and so far from this April, in addition to a ship loaded diesel oil tanker outside, there is no any oil and gas at the Syrian port.
In addition to the need to import diesel, Syria's petrochemical industry could meet its own the demand for gasoline. Local media said, with Europe and America to Syria oil industry sanctions, Syria diesel began to lack of, prices, lead to a lot of restaurants, shops, to industrial and commercial departments using natural gas as an alternative fuel, causing it to the natural gas demand soared.
In addition, the Syria of domestic situation it is cause unrest natural gas crisis triggers. According to locals speak, Syria waste gas concentration eruption in last winter, when many families more than natural gas storage tank to deal with an emergency, lead to market in short supply, at the same time as the attacks happened in all, the total amount of natural gas to Damascus to only 70% of the past.
Face the waste gas, the Syrian government has taken some measures, including the 87 to the gas station on the kerosene as alternative fuels, etc, but to little effect.
Alou said that recently countries such as Iran and Syria has natural gas importers signed the agreement, and in the energy field a new agreement with Russia and the memorandum, at the same time, Syria is also considering let go of private enterprise imported gas, to make up for the government by sanctions by the enterprise vacancy.
At present, however, Syria of their natural gas production has fallen to a previously two-thirds of level, the whole society caused by natural gas shortage chain reaction is emerging. Considering the complex external environment, and in the heavy reliance on imported cases, Syria in natural gas crisis recently also can't see signs of relief, because Europe and the sanctions, XuZhengFu "help city" measures can only ease, but not completely solve waste gas problem.
Xu finance minister recently noted, the European Union and the United States of the implementation of the economic sanctions on Syria, for Syria people's income and living standard, and Syria national economic caused negative influence.
