 PROFILE
Ruhrgas is roaring across newly opened European borders.

Germany's largest gas company, Ruhrgas imports 35% of its gas from Russia; much of the rest is from the Netherlands and Norway. It also has interests in gas companies in other countries, including 3.5% of Russia's Gazprom, its major supplier. Subsidiary Ruhrgas Industries makes gas meters, pipelines, and industrial furnaces for use in Europe and the US. German consortium Bergemann controls 60% of the company; Shell and Exxon Mobil venture BEB Erdgas und Erdöl controls 25%.
