CO2 Tech Commissioned
to Develop Anti-Global Warming Solutions for
Sakhalin II Energy
Project a Joint Venture of
Gazprom, Shell, Mitsui & Mitsubishi
LONDON, Jan. 31, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- CO2 Tech
(Pink Sheets:CTTD) President, Ms. Helga Schotten,
today announced that CO2 Tech, a UK-based provider
of cutting-edge, anti-global warming technology
solutions announced that CO2 was commissioned to
perform environmental effects monitoring and
analysis and develop environmental solutions to the
Sakhalin II Project, one of the largest new energy
development projects in the world today.
Sakhalin II, one of the biggest new energy
developments in the world, is a joint venture
operated by Sakhalin Energy Investment Company Ltd.
(SEIC) (owned by OAO Gazprom (Gazprom), Royal Dutch
Shell plc (Shell), Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (Mitsui) and
Mitsubishi Corporation (Mitsubishi)). Phase I of the
project produces oil from an offshore platform,
while Phase II includes two further offshore
platforms, 1800 km of pipelines and Russia's first
LNG plant. Peak production is expected to reach
180,000 barrels per day, and 9.6 million tons of LNG
per year.
The construction of Sakhalin II is the largest
inward investment in Russia and the largest
integrated oil and gas project in the world. The
objective of the Sakhalin Energy project is to
commercially develop, operate and market the huge
energy reserves in frontier and arctic environments
in Russia, for the sustainable benefit of
shareholders, the Russian Federation, the Sakhalin
Oblast and the wider community.
CO2 will conduct an environmental analysis of the
project delivery routes in terms of detrimental
effects on forests, which has a direct impact on
oxygen concentrations in the atmosphere. CO2 will
also monitor potential emissions from the project's
systems, and develop appropriate environmental
solutions to the project's partners.
The absence of existing infrastructure means it
is being built from scratch in sub-Arctic
conditions. These reserves pose huge challenges for
the oil and gas sectors. The project brings new
management techniques as the first mega-project in
the Russia Federation requiring the simultaneous
execution of several large-scale sub-projects.
