LONDON (Reuters) - Eastbound gas flows through the Yamal-Europe pipeline to Poland from Germany dipped slightly on Friday morning while requests for gas into Slovakia from Ukraine rose.

Exit flows at the Mallnow metering point on the German border stood at 1,000,339 kilowatt hours (kWh) per hour between 0900 CET and 1000 CET (0800 and 0900 GMT), slightly lower than earlier in the morning, data from pipeline operator Gascade showed.

Nominations, or requests, for Russian gas into Slovakia from Ukraine via the Velke Kapusany border point were slightly higher at 40.3 million cubic metres (mcm), from 38.5 mcm the previous day, Ukrainian transmission system data showed.

Russia's Gazprom (MCX:GAZP) said it would ship 42.2 mcm of gas to Europe via Ukraine on Friday, a similar volume to recent days.

Gas flows via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, which crosses the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany, remained at zero.
