СОТРУДНИЧЕСТВО РОССИИ И ЯПОНИИ
Если говорить о сотрудничестве в газовой сфере, это увеличение поставок СПГ в Японию, возможность участия компаний и банков этой страны в возведении второй очереди "Ямал СПГ" (речь идет о проекте завода по сжижению природного газа "Арктик СПГ-2" на полуострове Гыдан — прим. ред.). В ходе переговоров представители японской стороны также отметили, что очень довольны итогами своего участия в "Сахалине-2" и проявляют интерес к финансированию и строительству третьей очереди СПГ-завода "Сахалин-2".

NORWEGIAN GAS TO UK
The UK’s natural gas imports from Norway are forecast to increase up to 15% year on year this winter. In the months from October to March, the UK will likely import between 60-136 mcm per day of gas from Norway. At the high end of this range, imports would be up 18 mcm per day in the same period a year earlier. Imports of Dutch and Belgian gas are also projected to increase amid predictions that flows from the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) may fall by 4% this year to as low as 70 mcm per day.
