Moscow will stop gas deliveries to Austria from Saturday, the company said

Russia will stop gas supplies to Austria from Saturday, the Austrian energy company OMV announced on Friday.

OMV said it had received notice from Gazprom Export, a subsidiary of Russian state energy giant Gazprom.

The halt in deliveries is seen as a response to an arbitration award by the International Chamber of Commerce, which awarded OMV €230 million ($242 million) in a dispute with Gazprom.

Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer was expected to make a statement later on Friday.

Austria remains heavily dependent on Russian gas, even as other EU countries such as Germany have tried to end their dependence after Moscow’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
