Gazprom To Study Possible Construction Of Vladivostok LNG Terminal

摘要

Gazprom commissioned a study to review the possibility of partnering with a consortium of Japanese companies to build a plant in Vladivostok, Russia, to liquefy natural gas for transport to Japan. Japan is already the world’s largest importer of LNG, and this demand is expected to increase in the coming years because of the effects of last year’s devastating earthquake and tsunami that resulted in a meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear power plant.
