Sakhalin the platform for growth at Shell
Mar 20 2006 By Tom Miles, Birmingham Post
Royal Dutch Shell wants to expand its Russian operations and add a third big project, despite a huge cost overrun at its Sakhalin Energy venture.
The firm’s Russia chairman Chris Finlayson said: “I’m looking for a substantive increase in the size of the business, both in Sakhalin and in west Siberia and potentially a third platform.
“I think it will be a platform which is based on remote areas, strong technology input, probably Arctic, but a range of different options.”
