Severodvinsk seeks Gazprom gasification of shipyards
19.05.2009
The Severodvinsk city administration has addressed Gazprom leader Aleksey Miller with a request to fund the gasification of the closed military city, including the two huge shipyards Sevmash and Zvezdochka.
In a letter, Severodvinsk mayor Mikhail Grymin and the local city assembly together call on Gazprom to extend the Arkhangelsk-Nyuksenitsa gas pipeline to Severodvinsk, news agency Regnum reports. That will open up for the gasification of the two local thermo power plants, as well as the Sevmash and Zvezdochka yards.
The town leaders argue that it is in Gazprom's interest to extend the gas pipeline to Severodvinsk because of Gazprom's ongoing construction projects in the yards. The Sevmash yard is constructing several oil and gas facilities for Gazprom’s Arctic projects, among them the Prirazlomnaya platform.
The economic crisis has resulted in a standstill in the funding programme for the Arkhangelsk-Nyuksenitsa pipeline. The pipeline, which is connecting the region with the great Russian gas pipeline grid, has been stretched all the way to the Arkhangelsk city, but much remains to extend the pipeline to city quarters and surrounding towns and villages.
