The Role of the Russian Arctic Gas Industry in the Northern Sea Route Development
Abstract The Russian region of the Arctic has been described in terms of unique hydrocarbon potential, as well as strong concentration of major natural gas fields. The article presents reserves of natural gas, oil and condensate in the main oil and gas provinces of the Russian Arctic. It is indicate...
