据世界天然气网站1月22日报道,日本三菱公司对俄罗斯最大的独立天然气生产商诺瓦泰克正在开发的北极液化天然气2号项目表示了兴趣,该项目预计耗资255亿美元。
该公司首席执行官Akihiko Takadu在与俄罗斯能源部油气生产和运输部门负责人的会议上证实了这一兴趣。
日本外务省在声明中指出,会谈的重点是实施俄罗斯和日本合作的现有项目,特别是萨哈林2号和亚马尔液化天然气项目,以及三菱参与北极液化天然气2号项目。
诺瓦泰克已经同意向法国道达尔公司出售10%的股份,并希望在该项目中再出售30%的股份,以支付预计的项目成本。
北极液化天然气2号项目设想使用重力基础结构(GBS)平台建造三条每年660万吨的液化天然气列车。该项目以Utrenneye油田的油气资源为基础。
诺瓦泰克还将合同授予一家Saipem和Renaissance合资企业,建造三列液化列车,每列年产660万吨。

Mitsubishi shows interest in Novatek’s Arctic LNG 2 project
Japan’s Mitsubishi Corporation voiced its interest in the Arctic LNG 2 project, Russia’s largest independent natural gas producer Novatek is developing at a projected cost of $25.5 billion.
The company’s CEO Akihiko Takadu confirmed the interest during a meeting with the head of Russian oil and gas production and transportation department within the ministry of energy.
In its statement, the ministry noted talks focused on the implementation of existing projects in which the Russia and Japan cooperate, especially the Sakhalin-2 and Yamal LNG, as well as Mitsubishi’s participation in the Arctic LNG 2 project.
Novatek has already agreed a 10 percent stake sale to France’s Total and is looking to sell an additional 30 percent share in the project to cover the projected project cost.
The Arctic LNG 2 project envisages constructing three LNG trains at 6.6 million tons per annum each, using gravity-based structure (GBS) platforms. The project is based on the hydrocarbon resources of the Utrenneye field.
Novatek has also awarded the contract to a Saipem and Renaissance joint venture to build three liquefaction trains with a 6.6 million tons per annum capacity each.
