TNK-BP pacts with SIBUR involve project blocked by BP

摘要

Strengthening of a partnership between TNK-BP and a major Russian petrochemical group involves a project contested by breakaway partner BP PLC. Before TNK-BP announced agreements with the petrochemical group, SIBUR, to cooperate on production, processing, and use of natural gas and gas liquids, directors from BP blocked a plan to expand production from two gas-condensate fields operated by subsidiary Rospan International in Russia's Tyumen region, according to the Russian operating company.
