EuroNews - EN - Interview: Gazprom boss stresses...
Following disruptions to gas supplies from Russia over two winters, Europe is demanding better guarantees of energy security from Moscow. It also wants to reduce its reliance on Kremlin controlled sources, getting its gas from more countries. The state dominated Russian energy giant Gazprom is sceptical about that effort. In an exclusive interview, the Deputy Chairman and head of Gazprom's export division, Alexander Medvedev, told EuroNews that Europe will actually use more Russian gas in the future as it is vital to the region's economic competitiveness.

Export prices for the sale of Russian natural gas to European consumers will begin to decrease at the start of 2009, as the European Commission has unveiled new plans to diversify its energy imports - reducing reliance on Russia, which supplies most of the oil and gas to Europe. Does the current economic crisis spell serious trouble for the Russian gas giant? Well talk about it with Sergey Kupriyanov, the official spokesman for Gazprom.

FRONTLINE/WORLD | RUSSIA: Island on the Edge | PBS
A rough, new energy frontier
In this installment of FRONTLINE/World's Rough-Cut series, Nick Guroff explores the remote Sakhalin Island, what international oilmen might call a "hardship post." It is on the very edge of the Russian Far East, the historic equivalent of America's Wild West. The narrow, 600-mile-long island is populated by only half a million people, and its seasons are severe even by Russian standards.
But underneath the surface of the island and the surrounding seas is enough oil and gas to power the United States for as much as a decade.
