"We could prolong an intergovernmental agreement and Gazprom's corresponding contract until 2040, and we can reach a general agreement this year," Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller said
Russia delivers natural gas to Greece, meeting 80% of the country's needs, under a 1987 intergovernmental agreement.
Miller said Greece's economic growth is pushing demand for natural gas.
"Gazprom has a reputation as a reliable supplier here. It always honors its contractual obligations in full. We treasure this reputation," he said.
He also said the two sides discussed the Burgas-Alexandroupolis oil pipeline in which Gazprom is involved through its subsidiary, Gazprom Neft.
"Implementation of this project expands and diversifies our cooperation in the energy sector," Miller said.
