According to Reuters, the Sakhalin II LNG plant in Russia has launched a tender to sell four cargoes of LNG between September and October 2016.
The export plant is joint venture (JV) operated by Sakhalin Energy. Gazprom owns a 50% stake, whilst Royal Dutch Shell, Japan Mitsui and Diamond Gas – a subsidiary of Mitsubishi Corp. – own 27.5%, 12.5% and 10%, respectively.
Reuters reports that one of the cargoes will be loaded in October, whilst the first three will be loaded in September.
Following an announcement in early 2016 that a technical fault had disrupted operations on the Sakhalin-2 LNG plant in Russia, the facility has now fully resumed production.
