Sevmash eyes engagement in Nenets AO
The Sevmash yard has signed a cooperation agreement with the Nenets Autonomous Okrug. The agreement has a strong focus on the Nenets oil resoures, including the Prirazlomnoe field in the Pechora Sea.
Sevmash leader Nikolai Kalistratov signed the agreement with Nenets AO leader Igor Fyodorov. The agreement includes a wide range of issues from environment, culture and education to health, tourism and youth. However, it is the oil industry which appears to be the main object of the deal.
According to a press release from Sevmash, company leader Kalistratov was amazed by the facilities developed in connection with the Yuzhno Khilchuyu field in the Nenets AO when visiting the region recently. He was convinced about the need for a stronger Sevmash engagement in the region.
The deal stated that Sevmash will provide engineering services to Nenets companies, while the Nenets AO administration will provide “informational and organizational assistance in connection with the development of the Prirazlomnoe field in the Pechora Sea”. The Nenets side will also keep the shipyard updated on the general situation in the regional oil industry.
Sevmash is currently working with the last part of the Prirazlomnaya platform, which is to operate at the field with the same name.
