MOSCOW, June 1 (RIA Novosti) – Sakhalin-II project’s supervisory board approved a program and financial plan for 2006 totaling $2 billion, the energy ministry said Thursday.
The plan for the ambitious energy project to supply liquefied natural gas to Japan, Korea and the United States, was adopted in accordance with a production sharing agreement and a complex exploration plan, but the supervisory board will continue to analyze the need to increase the costs, the Ministry for Industry and Energy’s press service said.
The Sakhalin-II PSA was signed in 1994 between the Russian party (the Russian government and the administration of the Sakhalin Region) and the Sakhalin Energy Investment Company, which currently comprises Shell Sakhalin Holding (55%), Mitsui Sakhalin Development (25%) and Diamond Gas Sakhalin (20%). It was the first PSA to be signed in Russia and came into force in 1996. LNG supplies are set to begin in 2008.
In September, Sakhalin Energy, 55%-owned by Royal Dutch/Shell, said it would raise the costs of the second stage of project development from the initial $12 billion to $20 bln. The second stage includes gas production and liquefaction at a new LNG plant on Sakhalin with a projected annual capacity of 9.6 million tons.
The Sakhalin-II project includes an oil field with some associated gas production, a natural gas field with associated condensate production, pipeline, a liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant, and an LNG export terminal. The total reserves of the two fields are 150 million metric tons of oil and 500 billion cubic meters of natural gas.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
