Russian gas firm OAO Gazprom (GAZP.RS) expects to increase production to pre-crisis levels soon, the company's Chief Executive Alexei Miller said Thursday, following news that output in January and February rose 14% compared to a year ago.
"Without doubt this [news] pleases us and gives optimism that for the near-term prospect we will return to supplying pre-crisis volumes to domestic and export markets," said Miller.
