Putin to launch 1st stage of new gas pipeline in Far East
VLADIVOSTOK, September 8 (Itar-Tass) -- Prime Minister Vladimir Putin will make a working trip to Vladivostok on Thursday, September 8, to attend the inauguration ceremony for the first stage of the
Sakhalin-Khabarovsk-Vladivostok trunk gas pipeline on Russky Island.
Putin will also chair a meeting on the development of the Far Eastern federal University and the heritage of the APEC Summit to be held in Vladivostok.
The discussion will focus on a set of measures related to the
development of the Far Eastern federal University using the property and the facilities to be handed over to it after the APEC Summit in
Vladivostok in 2012. Special attention will be paid to the integration of the University into the world education system and its active participation in the development of innovation economy in the Far East.
First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov, Federation Council Deputy Chairman Svetlana Orlova, Defence Minister Anatoly Serdyukov, Minister of Regional Development Viktor Basargin, officials from federal ministries and agencies, as well as the rectors of leading universities will attend the meeting.
The Sakhalin-Khabarovsk-Vladivostok trunk gas pipeline is one of the priorities under the Eastern Gas Programme.
The Russian government has named Gazprom responsible for the
implementation of the project. Its main purpose is to develop gas supply in the Khabarovsk Territory and the Sakhalin region, as well as bring gas to the Primorsky Territory. The pipeline will also help deliver natural gas to the Asia Pacific Region.
The trunk pipeline system includes the operating 472-kilometre
Komsomolsk-on-Amur - Khabarovsk gas pipeline, as well as 1,350 kilometre sections from Sakhalin to Komsomolsk-on-Amur and from Khabarovsk to Vladivostok. The total length of the pipeline exceeds 1,800 kilometres.
The first stage of the pipeline has a capacity of 6 billion cubic
metres of gas a year. In the future, the system will transport about 30 billion cubic meters of gas from Sakhalin annually.
