Drilling of 176 gas production wells is completed, as the work is progressing ahead of schedule.

According to the Russian gas monopoly, drilling of 176 gas production wells is completed, as the work is progressing ahead of schedule. Production drilling is in full swing at the Irkutsk Region-based Kovyktinskoye field, which will start feeding gas into Power of Siberia in early 2023.
An important link in Power of Siberia’s gas supply chain will be the Amur Gas Processing Plant, one of the largest in the world, Gazprom said, adding that the core equipment of the GPP’s first two production trains is nearly assembled, with works underway on the third train.
Expansion is being carried out at the Sakhalin – Khabarovsk – Vladivostok gas pipeline section between Komsomolsk-on-Amur and Khabarovsk. Large-diameter pipes are being transported to the welding stations along the pipeline’s route for the purpose of welding double-jointed segments, the press release read.
