Gazprom to commence Kamchatka shelf drilling in 2011

A group of the Company's experts led by Alexander Ananenkov, Deputy Chairman of the Gazprom Management Committee has finished its business trip to the Far East.

Today in Vladivostok during the meeting dedicated to the Company's resource base development in the Far East it was noted that Gazprom carried on implementing the gas supply project in Kamchatka

. Fields pre-development in the western part of the Peninsula is underway. Among other things, production wells drilling is ongoing in the Nizhne-Kvakchikskoye field along with the second phase construction of a comprehensive gas treatment unit.

Alexander Ananenkov stressed that implementation of Gazprom's project for gas supply to the Kamchatka Krai will boost regional socioeconomic development.

In order to ensure reliable and long-term gas supply to the region, the Company proceeds with expanding its resource base through the Western Kamchatka shelf. This year Gazprom will launch the exploratory drilling on the Kamchatka shelf.

The meeting also concerned pre-development of the Kirinskoye field which is to become a gas source for the Sakhalin – Khabarovsk – Vladivostok gas transmission system. In 2011 Gazprom is planning to drill two gas production wells in the field and initiate construction of an onshore processing facility (OPF).

Moreover, front-end engineering design development is nearly completed for construction of a 140 kilometer gas pipeline from the OPF to the Sakhalin main compressor station. The pipeline is designed with a view to receive gas not only from the Kirinskoye field, but from other fields of the Kirinsky block within the Sakhalin /// project.

Following the meeting results, specific tasks were given to ensure further development of Gazprom's resource base in Eastern Russia.
