Description
Eustream, a Slovak gas-transport company, announced the dismissal of more than 100 employees as part of an internal restructuring. The layoffs are taking place across the company’s workforce in Slovakia.
The decision follows a sharp decline in transit volumes after the cessation of Russian gas flow through Ukraine in 2025, leading to reduced revenue and the need to cut operating costs. The company is focusing on consolidating operations and exploring new international links with Hungary, Poland and other potential partners.
As of 31 July 2025, the company’s employee count stood at 588. The company sees future challenges in the REPowerEU Plan, which foresees the cessation of all Russian gas imports by the end of 2027. In light of the changing market, the company addressed alternatives such as hydrogen transportation.
