Romanian producers to sell gas on commodities exchange during summer, export to Republic of Moldova in winter

Romania has taken on the obligation to export natural gas to the neighboring Republic of Moldova during winter. Local authorities have also made it mandatory for gas producers to sell at least 20 percent of their production on the commodities exchange starting July 15 this year, and until December 31, 2018. This is valid only during summer.
