PAO NOVATEK has established a representative office in Hanoi, Vietnam.
The new office will facilitate NOVATEK's expansion into the global gas markets and provide continuous support for the company's prospective energy projects in Vietnam, it said.
Its main tasks will be to interact with partners, state-owned and private companies in Vietnam to define and develop new projects to supply LNG from NOVATEK’s portfolio to the local market.
“Vietnam offers NOVATEK the prospects of developing gas-related energy projects in the dynamically growing Asian Pacific region,” said Leonid V Mikhelson, Chairman of the Management Board, “and, is of strategic importance for us in implementing our long-term aim of delivering affordable and secure natural gas for many decades in a sustainable manner.”
