YUZHNO-SAKHALINSK, November 17 (Itar-Tass) – Russian enviromnmental requirements for the Sakhalin-2 oil and gas project are not fully met, the Sakhalin Region’s Governor Ivan Malakhov said on Friday during the meeting in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk with British government representatives who arrived in Sakhalin to study the Sakhalin-2 problems.

The project is important for the regional administration, Malakhov noted.

Very serious, including environmental, requirements are set for it, but regrettably, they are not met in full measure, he said.

At the same time, the governor noted that the regional administration intended to promote the project further by a dialogue with the operator — the Sakhalin Energy company.

A British government representative described it as the world’s biggest integrated project and expressed the hope that after all the problems were settled the model of joint work of the British government and Sakhalin Energy would become an example for other Sakhalin projects.
