April 28 (LNGJ) – Russian natural gas company Novatek said it was awarded an additional licence for feed-gas production from the Bukharinskiy field on the Gydan Peninsula for its Arctic LNG project. “The licence area is partially located in the shallow waters of the Ob and Taz bays in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Region and has been obtained for a period up to 2050,” said Novatek.
Novatek noted that the Bukharinskiy field is in close proximity to the Geofizicheskiy and Trekhbugorniy license areas and the Soletsko-Khanaveyskoye field, which will underpin the Arctic LNG project. “The Bukharinskiy licence area has estimated resources of 1,190 billion cubic metres of natural gas and 74 million tons of liquids, according to the Russian resource classification system,” added the company.
