Energy Charter Treaty: Remington Worldwide Limited vs Ukraine
On 28 April 2011 the Arbitral Tribunal of the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce rejected most of the claims filed by Remington Worldwide Limited against Ukraine. The company accused Ukraine in violating the Energy Charter Treaty ratified by the Ukrainian Parliament, Verkhovna Rada in 1998.
RosUkrEnergo investigation commission of the Verkhovna Rada assumes that Naftogaz Ukrainy JSC lost the SCC case because of change of its legal position
On November 17, 2010 RosUkrEnergo investigation commission of the Verkhovna Rada presented draft report regarding the award of the arbitral tribunal under the rules of the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce.
The draft is subject to consideration of the core committee, thus it is not the final version yet. However, the draft contains assumptions and conclusions that may be interesting for our readers who follow the RosUkrEnergo case. After the arbitral tribunal had issued its awards of March 3, 2010 and June 8, 2010, they were recognized and permitted to be enforced according to the ruling of August 13, 2010 adopted by the Shevchenko District court of Kyiv. The ruling was then appealed. However, the Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal. As we may say the state officials and bodies pay great attention to the outcomes of the case, which already lead to criminal proceedings instituted against former officials of customs authorities.
If the case was lost in arbitration, let’s win in the Parliament
After the award in Rosukrenergo (we followed the case in our previous posts) case was issued against the Ukrainian respondent, Ukrainian authorities and state officials announced several options of further actions, including filing an appeal against the award issues by the arbitral tribunal of the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce.
In addition to those measures the members of the Ukrainian Parliament invented another one.

Gazprom setzt Prozess gegen Ukraine vor Stockholmer Schiedsgericht aus
Der russische Gaskonzern Gazprom hat das Verfahren gegen den ukrainischen Versorger Naftogas, der nach dem Gasstreit von Januar 2009 angestrengt worden war, ausgesetzt. Das teilte Gazprom-Sprecher Alexander Kuprijanow am Donnerstag dem Radiosender Echo Moskaus mit. Nach seinen Worten hatten die europäischen Gasabnehmer keine Klagen eingereicht und den Ausfall der Lieferungen als höhere Gewalt akzeptiert. Kuprijanow drückte die Hoffnung aus, dass die Präsidentenwahl in der Ukraine nicht zu einer Revision der Gasverträge führen würde, die nach dem Gasstreit im vergangenen Januar geschlossen worden waren. Vor einem Jahr hatte ein Gaskonflikt zwischen Moskau und Kiew zu einem mehr als zwei Wochen langen Lieferstopp für Europa geführt. Gazprom drehte am 1. Januar der Ukraine den Gashahn zu, weil Kiew eine Preiserhöhung für 2009 abgelehnt hatte. Der Streit konnte am 19. Januar beigelegt werden, als der russische Regierungschef Wladimir Putin und die ukrainische Premierministerin Julia Timoschenko einen neuen Gas- und Transitvertrag aushandelten. Dennoch verklagte Gazprom Naftogas vor dem internationalen Schiedsgericht in Stockholm wegen der Verletzung der Transitverpflichtungen.
