GORKI. Oct 29 (Interfax) – Russia is looking to get tough on customers who drag their feet when paying their gas bills. Russian Prime Minister Dmitry said at a conference devoted to natural gas payment discipline on Tuesday that the country must ensure full collection of gas payments, saying that from this year Russian gas giant Gazprom must operate within strict budget limits and receive 100% of gas payments. He said consumer gas debts currently top 100 billion rubles, with Ukraine proving a particular problem customer, its arrears rapidly approaching the $1 billion mark for gas accepted in August. This is despite what Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller called a significant discount amounting to approximately half a billion dollars and an all-time low amount of gas being pumped by Ukraine from Russia into underground storage. Medvedev suggested that the situation may lead to Ukraine being made to pay for gas deliveries in advance in future. It is not only Ukraine which could see customers pay for gas up front, with Medvedev saying he supports the introduction of an advance payment system for natural gas delivered to the domestic market, and he called for Defense Ministry structures and TGK-2 to resolve their gas debt issues.
