“In December, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping will launch the delivery of Russian natural gas to China via the eastern route in a teleconference mode,” said Ushakov.
He also noted the successful Russian-Chinese cooperation on other energy projects, in particular, Yamal LNG and Arctic LNG-2.
In late October, Gazprom completed filling the Power of Siberia with gas. Gas from the Chayandinskoye field in Yakutia was brought to the border gas metering station in the Blagoveshchensk area.
In 2014, Gazprom and the Chinese CNPC agreed on the supply of Russian gas to China via the eastern route.
