In the last days of June, the "Arctic LNG 2" project of "Novatek" reached a record level of natural gas production, according to Bloomberg sources. On June 28 and 29, the average daily production was 14 million cubic meters. This significantly exceeds the average figures of previous days, when production fluctuated around 8.9 million cubic meters.
The first stage of "Arctic LNG-2" with an annual capacity of 6.6 million tons was launched in December 2023. However, due to sanctions, not a single batch of LNG has been sold.
In October 2024, a decision was made to suspend full-scale production. In May, the launch of the second production line was reported, although the first line was soon stopped. In general, the project involves the construction of three stages with a total capacity of 19.8 million tons.
Earlier www1.ru reported that SSK "Zvezda" is completing the construction of the first batch of gas carrier ships for "Arctic LNG-2".
