Romania between the Russian energetic threat and the environmental shale gas extraction risk Cosmin Gabriel PACURARU 1 Summary  Romania, after its change o power, does not have a reliable National Security Strategy that inclu des energetic strate gy elements. This statement is based on the fact that the old strategy was elabo rated by the former CSAT compon ent given out by the former gove rnment .

government to get hold of the 8ltchim state company# 6f we analyse the facts, we

can conclude that in the period of the PC9 governing !etween /00@- /0##, no powerful Russian firm invested in Romania, only after US9’s rise to power this

happened

Still in the first wee* of US9 governing, a moratorium overloo*ing the

e7ploration and e7ploitation of shale gasses on the Romanian territory was

imposed#@ This was done to stop the merican firm ;hevron’s e7ploitation in two

$ones %&arlad and the southern seaside) e can assess that the introduction of this

moratorium !y the Romanian 1overnment was made at the insistence of the Russian

diplomats similar thing happened in the case of the gold e7ploitation in Rosia

Statistics say that the ris* of a nuclear power station accident is smaller than any

other power stations and that pollution is on a greater scale in the case of thermo

 power stations powered !y fossil fuels and that 1ermany is the largest importer of

Russian raw materials, especially gas, we can assess that the law of which we’re

There doesn’t yet e7ist an e7ploration and e7ploitation of these type of

ith all this, after the US9 government’s coming to power, the Environment

Senate a law pro(ect that oversees !anning this type of e7traction

nalysing the 'ational Security Strategy that contains parts dedicated to the

security was secured !y President Traian &asescu, no one from the present

governmental coalition ma*es any reference to the energetic security, so neither the

shale gasses

Conclusions

Romania is in the impossi!ility to decide the future energetic strategy

+nowing that the present 'ational Security Strategy was ela!orated !y the former

;ST component at the same time as the former PC9 government, in the presentsituation that the government affirms generalities in the 1overnmental Program in

reference to the alignment with the European security strategy we can affirm that at

this moment, Romania has no strategy in this domain2A

Romania has two possi!le energetic strategies" # Romania can rely on gas

imports from Russia, meaning that the imposed prices depend on the waiver margins

on national security pro!lems in favour of the Russian Bederation / Romania will

rely in its shale gas resources and will sustain and invest in the newly discoveredreserves or in the !ypass conventional natural gas transport routes
