Gastransportation is powered by 254 compressor stations with a total capacity of approximately 42,600 MW.Seasonal peak loads are levelled off using 22 underground natural gas storage facilities.Gas for domestic consumption and export is transported for an average distance ofapproximately 2,500 km in Russia. Gazprom's dispatch management centre, located in Moscow,controls and manages the transportation of gas in Russia.The total volume of natural gas consumed by the pipeline system was approximately 45.7 bcmin 2001, 86% of which was used for internal consumption and the rest absorbed by technical losses(including natural gas leakage).45
