"Agreement agreed": the Russian Federation will build a gas pipeline "Siberia 2" for the supply of raw materials of China

According to the new gas pipeline, Russia plans to sell the PRC up to 50 billion cubic meters of gas per year. As Putin said, the parties have already agreed all parameters of the agreement, taking into account the cost of raw materials from the Russian Federation. Siberia 2 will be built from the Yamal gas production center.

The route of the future gas pipeline must pass from the Bovanenko group through the Oblast Lub in the New Urengoy, as well as through the Krasnoyarsk region and the Irkutsk region to Mongolia. Earlier, the Russian company Gazprom has signed a contract with Chinese CNPC (or Petrochina) to transfer payment for the supply of gas pipeline "Siberia" in Ruby and Yuan.

The head of the monopolist Alexei Miller emphasized that the transition to payment in the National Value "will simplify the calculations and give a momentum development of economics. " "Siberia Power" is a Russian main gas pipeline for the supply of gas from Yakutia to the Primorsky Territory and the Asian-Pacific Region. It is a common project of the Russian gas monopolist Gazprom and the Chinese company CNPC. The gas pipeline was opened on December 2, 2019.

The cost of the project was initially estimated at 800 billion rubles, but later revised up to 1. 1 trillion rubles. Export capacity of the line is 38 billion cubic meters of gas per year. In August, Gazprom reported on an increase in gas exports to the Siberia gas pipeline. Thus, in 7 months Russia increased gas exports to the PRC by 60. 9%. We will remind, yesterday on the network there was a video that was allegedly distributed by Gazprom.
