As it was reported earlier, implementation of the NOVATEK’s project on construction of the largest LNG terminal in the Kamchatka Territory is expected in 2022. Investments into the project are estimated at RUB 110 billion.
The port infrastructure will include two floating LNG storage facilities, an access canal in the Bechevinskaya Bay, offshore points for ship-to-ship transshipment of LNG and a system ensuring safe traffic of vessels.
The investment project on construction and development of transshipment facilities in the Bechevinskaya Bay is intended for transshipment of liquefied natural gas (LNG) delivered from Sabetta port in the Gulf of Ob by ice-class gas carriers onto non-ice-class tankers for further delivery to the countries of the Asia-Pacific Region.
