Speaking after Russian gas producer Novatek announced that it had given the US$21 billion Arctic LNG 2 project the go-ahead, Wood Mackenzie Senior Analyst Nikolai Novikov commented: “Novatek keeps delivering on its promises and is on schedule with commissioning in 2023.

“This FID brings Novatek closer to its long-term strategy of maximising cost competitiveness across LNG markets and becoming a global LNG player.”
