Natural gas trading results in April 2026

During the past month, 23 trading sessions for the purchase and sale of natural gas were held at PP BETS on the medium and long-term market, as well as 4 trading sessions each day on the short-term market.

151 starting positions were formed in the PP BETS for trading resources in April, May 2026, and subsequent months, in the GTS and UGS. In total, 7.87 million cubic meters of natural gas were sold on the medium- and long-term market. 13.22 million cubic meters of natural gas were sold on the short-term market.

On the medium and long-term market in April, quoted prices in the section of the same name were in the range of 22,452-25,835 UAH excluding VAT. On the short-term market, exchange rates changed daily in the range of 22,349.12-25,559.65 UAH excluding VAT. A steady trend towards a decrease in prices was observed only in the last decade of the month.

"In April, the natural gas market on the UEEX adapted to the general trend of the wholesale market - the traditional decrease in demand at the end of the heating season." In the absence of economic incentives for imports, trading activity continued to be concentrated on the domestic market. UEEX continues to ensure stable and uninterrupted operation of trading systems, creating the most effective conditions for users,” said UEEX CEO O. Kovalenko.
