Rosatom is implementing a project to build a plant for the production of hydrogen from natural gas in the Sakhalin Region. It is expected that the production volume will be from 30,000 to 100,000 tons a year.

Russia has repeatedly said that the early launch of Nord Stream 2 would help ease the current high gas prices in Europe, which have soared in recent weeks on intensifying concerns over winter gas supply amid lower-than-expected Russian deliveries.

Speaking at Russian Energy Week, Novak also said the Nord Stream 2 pipeline would be ready to begin commercial operations "in the coming days" but that its startup still depended on winning approval from European regulators.

Russia's crude production targets under the OPEC+ accord are 9.809 million b/d in October and 9.913 million b/d in November, though it has regularly pumped in excess of its quota.

The OPEC+ alliance has agreed to increase production by 400,000 b/d through the end of 2022, aiming to eliminate the historic cuts it implemented through the pandemic by late in the year

Gazprom increased gas supplies to Turkey (+138.3 per cent), Germany (+33.2 per cent), Italy (+14.2 per cent), Romania (+305.6 per cent), Serbia (+125.2 per cent), Poland (+11.2 per cent), Bulgaria (+52.5 per cent), Greece (+10.8 per cent), and Finland (+17.5 per cent).

Hungary and Croatia started receiving Russian natural gas via a new route: the gas is supplied by the TurkStream gas pipeline and further across the national gas transmission systems of Bulgaria, Serbia, and Hungary.

Vice-President of Rusatom Overseas for projects of research reactors and centres of nuclear science and technology (CNST) Dmitry Vysotsky and the head of the International Affairs Department of the LLC MCI MBIR Consortium Artem Goncharuk presented innovative projects at a session on "New projects in the field of research reactors".

Заместитель Министра обсудил с послом актуальные вопросы двустороннего взаимодействия России и ОАЭ по линии энергетики.

«Одной из важнейших государственных задач, отраженных в частности в Энергостратегии и Стратегии развития электросетевого комплекса, является обеспечение быстрого доступа потребителей к дешёвым энергоресурсам. Обеспечить реализацию этой задачи призваны новые технологии, цифровая трансформация», – сказал Евгений Грабчак.
