It is planned that by the end of April all Ukrainian UGS facilities will be transferred to the neutral period.

Two UGS facilities - Krasnopopovskoye in the Luhansk region and Olishivske in the Chernihiv region - were stopped as a result of hostilities. It is impossible to start preventive work here, as there remains a risk for personnel.
