Rusija ima konkurentnu prednost i u LNG-u

A growing fleet of LNG carriers purpose-designed for the Arctic gives Russia a long-term competitive advantage, as the vessels deliver gas into Asia and Western Europe in conditions that were until recently considered too hostile.

A steadily growing fleet of liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers purpose-designed to combat the ice floes of the Northern Sea route is giving the giant Yamal plant in the Arctic Circle a long-term competitive advantage, as the vessels deliver gas into Asia and Western Europe in conditions that were until recently considered too hostile.
As two notable events showed in late November 2018, the vessels have opened up the gas-hungry markets of the Asia Pacific region just as the Yamal plant's third train is being steadily commissioned and worked up to full capacity through 2019. They also underpin president Vladimir Putin's determination to deploy the nation's oil and gas reserves as part of Russia's global diplomacy, especially in a growing rapprochement with China.
First, the 299-metre long Arc7 ice-class LNG carrier, Novatek's Rudolf Samoyvich, delivered the first shipment from the plant to China National Offshore Oil Corporation after sailing through the Northern Sea without the necessity of being escorted by ice-breakers. It was a breakthrough in LNG deliveries—the first of its kind in an easterly direction in these waters. To boot, it was made towards the end of the navigation period.
Until the first Arc7 vessel, the Christophe de Margerie, took the inaugural load from the plant in 2017, the Northern Sea route skirting the Russian coast to the Bering Strait, which separates Russia from Alaska, was not considered viable. Temperatures at the Yamal peninsula can fall to minus 50C in winter.
Aside from the seagoing achievement, the delivery showed the Yamal plant can compete in the Asia Pacific. According to Novatek chief executive Leonid Mikhelson, the Rudolf Samoyvich took seven and a half days to sail from the port of Sabetta in Ob Bay on the Yamal Peninsula all the way into the Bering Strait after loading up in late October. It took another 13 days to berth at the Fujian LNG terminal in China. Throughout, the vessel sailed at commercially viable speeds.
A few days later another Arc7 carrier, the Vladimir Rusanov jointly owned by Tokyo-based MOL and China's Cosco Shipping, took the Yamal plant's operational competitiveness a step further when it completed the first ship-to-ship transfer of LNG from the Arctic. In a milestone that knocked about a week off the vessel's normal round trip, the Vladimir Rusanov off-loaded a cargo of about 170,000 cm of LNG to an Atlanticmax-class vessel, the Sovcomflot-owned Pskov, in sheltered waters at the small port of Honningsvag in Norway. In another first, neither vessel was moored to a jetty during the operation.
Hailing the operation as "a key step in the use of ice-breaking vessels for ship-to-ship operations in LNG transportation," MOL president and chief executive Junichiro Ikeda pointed out that the transfer to a lower-standard ice-class vessel like the Pskov meant the Vladimir Rusanov could sail straight back and pick up another load at Sabetta rather than having to continue on to a receiving terminal in Western Europe. The round trip would normally take two weeks.
The operation also allows the Arc7 vessels to be put to better use in conditions for which they were designed because access to the Yamal Peninsula by non-ice class ships during the winter months is limited. The Arc7 design was always considered so fundamental to the operational success of the Yamal plant that production was delayed until the first vessels could be delivered.
More Arc7 vessels will be launched during 2019—MOL alone expects to put two new ships into service, all destined for action in the Arctic Circle just as the third train at the Yamal plant heads towards full production. In one of the critical actions, in September a compressor gas turbine was successfully fired, the company reported.
Other companies besides MOL are positioning themselves to capitalise on the new route. Sovcomflot, for instance, has built up its fleet of gas carriers to 13 and has chartered them to Gazprom, Sakhalin Energy, Shell, Sibur and Tangguh LNG as well as to Yamal. In addition to the Pskov that completed the round trip to Western Europe, Sovcomflot's Melampus is another Atlanticmax vessel capable of performing similar duties.
In the longer term the Arc7 class's capacity to deal with the Northern Sea will prove vital to the extraction of the Arctic Circle's natural gas reserves accounting, according to some estimates, for about 30pc of the world's undiscovered fields.

Arctic-class carriers have opened a new route for Yamal's LNG

Ja sam i dalje za naftu ispod $20. To je realna cijena. A ti?

E bas zato Ero,jer je svjecki Hegemon ..mislim na Jemeriku,u svakoj pori tudjih zivota i odlucivanja,a tu nema konkurencije...Eroo wrote:pismejker wrote:Lijepo lijepo...tako treba..gdi su sad jemericke samkcije onima koji bi ulagali u STREAM 2??

dosad je bil ovako..jemericki bencin na svapskim tankštelama,..odsad,isto to,plus ruski plin na tankstelama i domacinstvima i industriji..
vis da se furaju hibridni usranci,odnosno auti..malo natocis kod jamera,malo kod Rusa..i sve fino u balansu..jel..i konkurentnosti niskih cijena..ne znam Ero,ali sto je Stream 2 blizi realizaciji,i cijena bencina pada na tankstelama..u mjesec dana,karikiram, palo sa 162 ojra za 100 litara,na 128...dakle na istu kolicinu mozemo tociti jos za 30 ojrova..eeeeej..!!! vis da ide kak otreba..

DA citao sam. Sve do 2021 se predvidjaju nize stope rasta, a nakon 2021 bi trebao krenuti brzi rast, preko 3 procenta godisnje.frka wrote:Sanctions? Russian economy to overtake Germany’s by 2020!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tada bi se trebali poceti ubirati plodovi cijele ove modernizacije industrije i svih ekonomskih reformi koje se sprovode.
