Ukrtransgaz appeals to the National Security and Defense Council due to arrests of company accounts and assets

JSC Ukrtransgaz appealed to the National Security and Defense Council regarding the arrests of all accounts and assets of the enterprise, which make it impossible to operate stably and cause risks to the safe functioning of the state gas transmission system. This was reported by the press service.

It is noted that the work of the company was seriously complicated due to the intensification of illegal actions of third parties in relation to the unlawful seizure of property of Ukrtransgaz.

“Now the most ambitious is the requirement of UAH 2 336 million in favor of Fin-Invest Financial Company LLC. Ukrtransgaz makes of the court decision, according to which the enforcement proceedings were opened, as unlawful, and the actions of the plaintiff – those that may have signs of fraud. However, the arrest by a private contractor of the enterprise’s accounts has already led to a loss of UAH 50.3 million”, the report said.

Arrests of all accounts of the company, its movable and immovable property jeopardize the reliable functioning of underground gas storages in the midst of the heating season. In addition, according to agreements with GTS Operator of Ukraine LLC, structural units of Ukrtransgaz provide repair and maintenance services for gas pipelines, equipment for gas pumping units, etc. Illegal actions to block the activities of the enterprise, which is included in the list of state-owned objects of strategic importance for the economy and state security, jeopardize the energy security of Ukraine and can lead to unpredictable technological consequences.

Ukrtransgaz appeals to the National Security and Defense Council with a request to protect the rights of the enterprise and prevent the illegal withdrawal of funds and alienation of property.

At the end of January, UAH 2.3 billion of Ukrtransgaz were blocked at the initiative of Fin-Invest Financial Company LLC and Ukrenergosbut. The case concerns the decision of Kyiv Arbitration Court of July 12, 2007 in the case of gas supplies to consumers of Ukrenergosbut.

Earlier it was reported that after the seizure of the accounts and property of Ukrtransgaz by a private performer, UAH 50.3 million were already written off from the accounts of the state enterprise.
