State gas monopoly Bulgargaz said it will cut gas supplies to Kremikovtzi steel mill after the holidays at the beginning of May.
The distribution firm had warned it would cut off deliveries over unpaid bills, closing the smelter's major production units.
"We can't continue to maintain the lethargy of the mill. At the beginning of April we were told that the future investor will be known in a week. Nothing happened. This can go on for months, but we are not able to supply gas if nobody pays," Dimitar Gogov, Bulgartgaz Executive Director, told Darik radio.
Kremikovtzi future looks increasingly gloomy amidst workers' rallies over pay and the pulling out of investors.
At the beginning of April Bulgaria's Economy Minister Petar Dimitrov set a seven-day deadline for reaching a tolling deal to buy coke from Kremikovtzi with the Brazilian giant CSN.
That was the only reason why state gas monopoly Bulgargaz decided not to cut gas supplies to Kremikovtzi over unpaid bills.
Should gas supplies be cut off, the total shutdown of the company except for the final units in the production chain is very likely.
