Russia's Gazprom reaches gas storage target level

Russian gas giant Gazprom on Friday said it had reached its target level in Russian gas storage, but would continue injecting gas into domestic storage until Nov. 8.

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday told the head of the Kremlin-controlled energy company to start pumping natural gas into European gas storage once Russia finishes filling its own stocks, which he said would improve the situation in the European energy market.
