A working meeting between Alexey Miller, Chairman of the Gazprom Management Committee, and Wang Yilin, Chairman of the Board of Directors of CNPC, was held recently.
Highlighting the successes of their partnership in the gas sector, the parties noted the progress made in the implementation of the project for Russian gas exports to China via the eastern route. Negotiations continue over the planned supplies from Russia’s Far East. In addition, the companies carry on with their active collaboration in such areas as underground gas storage, gas-fired power generation, and the use of gas as a vehicle fuel.
After the meeting, Alexey Miller and Wang Yilin signed the Heads of Agreement for natural gas to be supplied from Russia’s Far East to China. The document outlines the basic parameters of future supplies, namely the volumes, the term of the contract, the starting date of supplies, the surge period, and the cross-border point.
The parties also signed the coordination agreement – the addendum to the sales and purchase agreement for gas to be supplied via the eastern route.
