In 2024, 21 branches of Gas Distribution Networks of Ukraine LLC (part of Naftogaz Group) maintained in-building gas supply systems in 34,806 multi-storey buildings. In the course of the work, the specialists eliminated 240,113 gas leaks. This was reported by the press service of Naftogaz.
‘The Gas Networks team performs critical work for the safety and comfort of citizens. Thanks to the professional maintenance of intra-house gas networks, we managed to minimise the risks of accidents and guarantee the stability of gas supply. I sincerely thank all my colleagues for their responsible work,’ said Roman Chumak, Acting Chairman of the Board of Naftogaz of Ukraine.
According to him, the maintenance of apartment buildings was one of the key challenges in 2024. Prior to that, there had been no proper maintenance of intra-building gas networks for at least 4 years. This significantly increased the risks for residents, especially given the additional burden on infrastructure during the war.
