In the Lena taiga not fly any aircraft or helicopter. Woodcutters and workers have to be laid forest roads to where you can not get on the track of the ESPO pipeline, which is parallel to and build the "power of Siberia." Because of the inaccessibility of the first segment of the pipeline began to build from the end - from Lensk. First of all workers and technicians went to the areas to which the easiest way to get there. On one of these - 206-km highway "Power of Siberia" - A group of journalists from the Far East and Siberia, on the spot to assess the specificity of the construction of the gas pipeline system.

On the trail smell of freshly cut wood, and the feet go deep in the red plowed soil mixed with wood chips. On this site have worked loggers, whose main task - to cut down a clearing width of 42 meters, uprooting stumps and remove trees from the road. Workers not to cut down too much, their control specialists Environment Department Lena LPUMG.

- We woods "mow" - smiling in response to the question of the feller from Buryatia Alexander Victoria. He is the second month at a construction site, and on March 1 will leave for a vacation home, where he has been waiting for. He is no stranger to work away from home - in the Krasnoyarsk region, he participated in the construction of the pipeline. Said conditions at the construction site of the current good.

- The working day from 8 am to 8 meals four times a day - we bring food in thermoses, right on the job. Not far from here we rotational town - there is a sauna, and a dining room, toilets and warm - describes the life of Alexander. In his team have work from Irkutsk and even from Krasnodar. 

Bulldoze

Following the loggers are heavy machinery that literally changes the terrain. Bulldoze a hill and, if necessary, raise the lowlands - that is the goal Brigade excavator and bulldozer master construction and installation works from Tyumen Eugene Sukharev.

- That this hill will not be fast - we srezh it - pointing to the steep slope behind us, which employs excavators, says Eugene. - In the day we move approximately 3.5 thousand cubic meters of earth. Working around the clock in two shifts. Now is the favorable time and temperature appropriate, soil and podmerzshie - well cleaned. In general, the winter was warm. It was only five days with temperatures below -50 degrees when the equipment fails.

In this podmerzshie earth brick color in the next two years will shape all the pipes of the first section, "The Power of Siberia."

- On our way and rocky ground, and impassable swamps, - explains the head of capital construction Lena LPUMG Anton Medovikov. - But despite all the difficulties, by 2017, the first section of the pipeline will be laid. Nearly 80 kilometers of pipes for him last year brought in the Lena River Lena, which is now the main transport artery for "Power of Siberia."

- City Lensk all in the pipe - we have found every possible area to store it - smiles Vladimir Aksentischev. - Lensk was ready to receive such cargo. We rented seven open areas where the pipe is stored.

Intractable northern nature goes to meet the gas company, after a warm winter promising early navigation. Due to the record high in the last hundred years, the temperature it can begin as early as from 1 April. So, this spring lenchane a month earlier than usual will be released on the embankment of the sacred river for local residents to meet drifting ice.

Loggers have to pave the road to where you can not get to the oil pipeline, which is being built parallel to the "Power of Siberia."

The big building - great prospects 

For 21-year-old resident of Lensk Paul Kulpanova construction of "Power of Siberia" may be the starting point Gazodobytchik career. While he only maintenance worker at a construction site production base LPUMG Lensky, but will soon be able to start training in one of the universities in the chosen specialty gas, then to return to the production in the new role.

- I graduated from high school, returned from the army and immediately got on the job.Before going to a vocational school to learn mechanic - other profession we do not get it. But now I plan to learn from the operator of oil and gas, - says the guy. - The personnel department told me that I can come to study and then come back here to work. So a lot of prospects. And a lot of guys from Lensk arranged in "Gazprom".

Square base LPUMG - nine hectares, which will house an office building, a warm parking, repair shops, warehouses. Now here are dumping area - the area will raise a total of 4.5 meters, with the water level of the last catastrophic flood that occurred in Lensk in 2001. Most of the buildings scheduled to be completed later this year. In addition lenchan, work here Siberians from Tomsk and Novosibirsk.

Locals are working on clearing the routes: four two subcontractors registered in the republic.In the Lena LPUMG recently has five graduates of Northeastern University, located in Yakutsk. All of them have graduated from the department open to oil and gas industry and were awarded certificates Alexey Miller, guaranteeing employment in the company Gazprom.

OPINION

Vladimir Aksentischev , director Lena LPUMG: 

- Our management is formed by two-thirds of local specialists working previously on laying pipelines. At the same time we have invited professionals from other regions - we have presented almost the entire geography of the country. Because it is a grand building, and we need a good experience professionals. The social component of the work is very important for our organization - we offer visitors departmental staff apartment. For this purpose, bought the entrance of a multistory building in Lensk. In the near future, management will expand the staff, we need cadres working professions - 40 drivers and 8 service personnel to provide crew change cantonments. All these jobs can apply primarily residents Lensk.

The Russian government has not yet discussed the access of independent gas producers to "Power of Siberia"

Feb 25 - RIA Novosti. The Russian government is not considering a proposal Ministry of Energy of independent gas producers access to the gas pipeline, "The Power of Siberia", told reporters Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich.

As reported in late December last year, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak, the government will consider proposals for the Ministry of Energy of independent gas producers access to the "Power of Siberia" in late December - early January.

"No, not yet considered," - said Dvorkovich.

"I know that our major oil company said, primarily on China," - said Dvorkovich, answering the question of who is a user of the gas.

Starting the pipeline "Power of Siberia" on the resource base Chayandinskoye field in Yakutia is scheduled for 2018-2020 years.In the second phase (2020-2025 years) in order to increase the supply of gas is connected Kovykta field in the Irkutsk region, as well as the field of "Rosneft" and independent gas producers.

The head of "Gazprom" Alexei Miller said in late June that the contract holding on gas supplies to China does not provide for the admission of independent producers and calculated only on the resource base of "Gazprom". In turn, the head of "Rosneft" Igor Sechin said that "Rosneft" hopes to gain access to the planned gas pipeline "The Power of Siberia" in order to supply gas to Russian consumers.

Construction of the Power of Siberia gas pipeline in the heat

Construction of the Power of Siberia gas pipeline entered an active phase. Now in taiga laying the first site from the Chayandinsky field to Lensk 207 kilometers long. Ust Kut becomes the main transport knot through which materials for "building of a century" will arrive.

Now Lensk— one big warehouse of pipes. For navigation of last year from Ust-Kutay delivered so many that will be enough to construct 78 kilometers of the Power of Siberia gas pipeline.

Each pipe will be lifted, turned, looked to eliminate even the most insignificant defects of isolation or joints.

—It is necessary to estimate, condition it.
—But often happens inadequate?
—It happens. At this stage three it was eliminated defect— the specialist in repair of pipes Andrey  Yushkov speaks.

Ina taiga it is noisy. Here root out stubs, level the route for the gas pipeline. The wood on different sites is cut by four organizations— two of Lensk, two of the Irkutsk region.

These pipe layers will be necessary approximately in a month when the earth becomes softer. It is necessary to cut through still a glade in taiga— about 60 kilometers are now passable, and also to dig through a trench for the Power of Siberia main gas pipeline.

The gas pipeline will pass on bogs, mountains, earthquake-prone areas. By 2018 gas has to enter to China through Blagoveshchensk. Experts who laid the ESPO oil pipeline, engineers of divisions of Gazprom from other regions are invited to building.

—Here it is possible to make a cut. Here representatives from all our country gathered.  Because building will be grandiose. It already began, and experience of these people is necessary for us— the director of lensky linearly – production management of the main gas pipeline Vladimir Aksentishchev speaks.

Building is humming and in Lensk. Here prepare two large platforms— for the hostel on150places andfor new baseLinearly – production management. The pillow under the building is poured out by the 4,5 meters high. Ona flood case.

—Here onthis site all forces are thrown. Here 25cars pour out in a day. They flights do till 10-12 in a day— the ancillary worker Pavel Kulpatov speaks.

Laying of a pipe from the Kovykta field will become the second stage of construction of the gas pipeline.

Now "Power of Siberia" is under construction from the Chayandinsky field in Yakutia to Blagoveshchensk inthe Amur region— 2200km. Then "Gazprom" will construct a gas pipeline site from the Kovykta field in the Irkutsk region to Chayandinsky— these are about 800 more km.

"Rosneft" allow gas line "The Power of Siberia" in 2020

Starting the pipeline "Power of Siberia" on the resource base Chayandinskoye field in Yakutia is scheduled for 2018-2020 years. "Rosneft" and other independent gas producers can gain access to the pipeline in 2020-2025.




MOSCOW, February 20 - RIA Novosti / Prime. "Rosneft" and other independent gas producers in Russia may be able to transport gas from its fields through the pipeline, "The Power of Siberia" on the second phase of the project - in 2020-2025, it follows from the presentation Ministry of Energy.

Starting the pipeline "Power of Siberia" on the resource base Chayandinskoye field in Yakutia is scheduled for 2018-2020 years. In the second phase (2020-2025 years) in order to increase the supply of gas is connected Kovykta field in the Irkutsk region, as well as the field of "Rosneft" and independent gas producers.

Thus, the gas line can be connected to the field as Yurubcheno- Tokhomskoye, Kuyumbinsk and Sobinsk. After this power "Power of Siberia" in the second stage at the site of Chayanda Belogorska to grow to 60 billion cubic meters.

It is expected that the third phase (2025-2030 years), the volume of gas supplied from the fields offshore Sakhalin Island in the Primorsky and Khabarovsk Krai, replaced by resources provided by the GTS "The Power of Siberia." During this period, will be built the third section of the pipeline from Blagoveshchensk to Vladivostok with a capacity of 32 billion cubic meters of gas a length of 620 kilometers. The presentation is not specified whether the supply is made of independent producers to export or only on the domestic market.

In May 2014 the head of "Rosneft" Igor Sechin said that this is Russia's largest oil company, intends to become a major player in the gas market and, by 2030, be able to get on the fields east of the country 45 billion cubic meters of gas per year. To implement these volumes "Rosneft" is seeking access to the "Power of Siberia." The company appealed to the Ministry of Energy and the Government Commission on Energy with a proposal to build a pipeline to synchronize with the development of gas fields "Rosneft".

It follows that the pipeline "The Power of Siberia" will be built in three phases. The first to be built thread capacity of 32 billion cubic meters. m and a length of 2170 km to Belogorska with a branch to China. On it from 2018 to 2020 will be pumped gas condensate field Chayandinskoye.

At the second stage - from 2020 to 2025 - in order to increase the supply of gas to the gas pipeline connecting the Kovykta field, as well as deposits of "Rosneft" and independent gas producers. We are talking about Yurubcheno- Tokhomskoye, Kuyumbinskaya and Sobinsky gas fields. As a result of power "The Power of Siberia" in the second stage at the site of Chayanda Belogorska to grow to 60 billion cubic meters. m.

At the third stage - from 2025 to 2030 - will be built the third section of the pipeline from Blagoveshchensk to Vladivostok. Its capacity - 32 billion cubic meters. meters of gas and length - 620 km. At this stage, the volumes of gas supplied from the fields of the Sakhalin shelf in the Primorsky and Khabarovsk territories, will be replaced by gas supplied by "Power of Siberia."

In the presentation of the Ministry of Energy does not say whether the "Rosneft" to supply gas to yourself "Power of Siberia" in China, or will sell gas to "Gazprom".

Construction of the pipeline "The Power of Siberia", designed for Russian gas supplies to Yakutsk and Irkutsk gas production centers in the Far East of Russia and China on the "eastern route", began on September 1st. The pipeline - 3968 km. The estimated cost of its construction - 770 billion rubles.

Gazprom readies Chinese gas pipeline

Region of Tomsk in red

Russian gas company said it's committed to major role in Asian markets.

 TOMSK, Russia, Feb. 13 (UPI) -- Russian energy company Gazprom is conducting the route preparations needed to send gas through the Power of Siberia pipeline to China, its top executive said. Gazprom officials meet in the Siberian city of Tomsk to discuss efforts to build a pipeline to China. The company said the pipeline's route is clear, line preparation is under way and surveys have been conducted for underwater sections. Gazprom estimates the project will require more than 120 thousand tons of large-diameter pipe. Gazprom Chairman Alexei Miller said project preparations are in full swing. "All of Gazprom's obligations to start gas supplies to China will be performed in full and in due time," he said during Thursday's meeting. Gazprom has a 30-year sales agreement with China National Petroleum Corp. that calls for 1.3 trillion cubic feet of natural gas per year through the pipeline. With a European economy looking to break the Russian grip on the region's energy sector, the Kremlin has shifted focus on building successful trade relations with Asia-Pacific economies. Russian envoy to the Far East Yuri Trutnev said last week the government was setting the stage for further regional economic development for 2015. Russia's economy is hobbled by dual strains of economic sanctions related to crises in Ukraine and the low price of oil. The International Monetary Fund said Russia's economy is among the hardest hit by the weak crude oil market. Gazprom received a AAA rating, the highest possible, from the Dagong Global rating agency in China, opening the Russian company up for trade on the Hong Kong stock index. The ratings agency said most of the key factors underpinning the Russian company's outlook were among the best in the industry.

Gazprom to substitute engineering supplies from pro-sanctions countries

Published time: February 17, 2015 10:22
Edited time: February 17, 2015 19:02

Gazprom, Russia’s largest gas company plans to expand the program of import substitution by no longer buying metal and engineering products from more than 400 foreign firms, which could mean $2.5 billion in lost orders from Russia.

From now on metal products and machinery items, including agricultural and road construction equipment will be purchased mainly from Russian producers, “except in case the goods are not produced, or there is no counterpart, in Russia,” Vedomosti reports Tuesday referring to a Gazprom document.

The companies on Gazprom’s ‘blacklist’ include suppliers from about 20 countries. Firms from the US (Caterpillar, Motorola), Germany (Siemens, MAN Turbo), France (Schlumberger, Schneider Electric), the UK and Japan (Sumitomo, Kenwood, Kawasaki) make up more than a quarter of the companies affected, according to the document obtained by Vedomosti.

Besides the products from Western countries supporting the anti-Russian sanctions, Gazprom is considering replacing supplies from number of companies in Belarus, Ukraine, Israel, India and Argentina.

Gazprom officials have said they were thinking of looking at alternative suppliers from China or Korea that aren’t already on Gazprom’s list of foreign suppliers.

Gazprom’s purchases in foreign currency account for about 21 percent of its capital costs, according to Deputy Chairman Andrey Kruglov. Capital costs of Gazprom for 2015 will be $11.6 billion (733 billion rubles). That means almost $ 2.5 billion (or 154 billion rubles) were allocated to foreign purchases.

In early February, Gazprom created a special department for import substitution with a mission to ensure the company’s technological independence. A similar department was established by its oil subsidiary Gazprom Neft. The company says its new policy will see as much equipment as possible produced in Russia.

Experts suggest Gazprom could find it difficult, and it could cause problems with such projects as Baltic LNG, the Power of Siberia and the Turkish Stream pipelines, as there is a lack of Russian hi-tech producers.

In February Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev claimed that most machinery could be replaced with “Russian-made” equipment.
