"Gas withdrawal from European underground storage facilities continues, according to Gas Infrastructure Europe data as of March 12. Stock levels have reached their lowest point since the beginning of the withdrawal season - 29.1%," the statement read.
All gas injected into European UGS facilities in preparation for winter was withdrawn by mid-February, Gazprom added. Current withdrawals are coming from previous years' reserves.
In the Netherlands, only 8.3% of gas reserves remain in storage - the lowest level for March 12 in recorded history.
