John--Thanks for posting that link. It contains the first mention that I've seen of the IEA Energy Sector Seminar in Russia that took place earlier this week. >>>The approach was aired this week in Moscow, where the International Energy Agency sponsored a meeting with Russian oil officials to discuss the Year 2000 problem. Russian oil exports reached a post-Soviet record in April of 3.59 million barrels a day, and disruptions of that amount of oil would have a major price impact on world markets. U.S. Energy Department officials, the State Department and the CIA have said Russia started late and has given off mixed signals about the seriousness of the Year 2000 problem. When a CIA official testified before Congress that Gazprom, the big Russian gas firm that exports large volumes to Western Europe, would have breakdowns due to the Y2K problem, Gazprom denied it.<<< y2knews.com Message 10391948 Should you come across any additional mentions please post.
