According to Orlenko, Uzbekistani gas should be enough till the end of the year. "The whole South Kyrgyzstan is supplied by gas from Uzbekistan. The yearly demand is 40 million cubic meters. The contract with Uzbekistan on supply of 100 million cubic meters of gas to Kyrgyzstan was signed back in December, 2011. In case North Kyrgyzstan will run out of gas, they may use the gas supplied by Uzbekistan, same as they did this winter," Orlenko said. According to Orlenko, a new contract with KazTransGas will be signed in autumn. And a new contract with Uzbekistan will be signed in the end of December, 2012. It was said, that an increase in KazTransGas' gas price for Kyrgyzstan is still possible.
