  • Russian Oil and Gas Challenges
    Order Code RL33212 Russian Oil and Gas Challenges Updated June 20, 2007 Robert Pirog Specialist in Energy Economics and Policy Resources, Science, and Industry Division Russian Oil and Gas Challenges Summary Russia is a major player in world energy markets. It has more proven natural gas reserves than any other country, is among the top ten in proven oil reserves, is the largest exporter of natural gas, the second largest oil exporter, and the third largest energy consumer. Energy exports have been a major driver of Russia’s economic growth over the last five years, as Russian oil production has risen strongly and world oil prices have been very high. This type of growth has made the Russian economy dependent on oil and natural gas exports and vulnerable to fluctuations in oil prices. The Russian government has moved to take control of the country’s energy supplies. It broke up the previously large energy company Yukos and acquired its main oil production subsidiary. The Duma voted to give Gazprom, the state- controlled natural gas monopoly the exclusive right to export natural gas; Russia moved to limit participation by foreign companies in oil and gas production and Gazprom gained majority control of the Sakhalin energy projects. Russia has agreed with Germany to supply Germany and, eventually, the UK by building a natural gas pipeline under the Baltic Sea, bypassing Ukraine and Poland. In late 2006 and early 2007, Russia cut off and/or threatened to cut off gas or oil supplies going to and/or through Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, and Belarus in the context of price and/or transit negotiations — actions that damaged its reputation as a reliable energy supplier.

Main area of development is Taman peninsula and adjacent anchorages. Transfers of dry bulk and liquid cargoes make this area very busy. The transhipments in these areas are mostly related to the export of cargoes, however, for some cargoes such as containers – there are also import transhipments. 3 main areas are active and busy with the cargo operations: Anchorage 451, OPL Kavkaz and Port of Taman: 2 Anchorage 451 of port of Kavkaz STS port Kavkaz at road no. 451.

  • Organic-Chlorides-Russian-Crude
    ANTARICA GROUP Surveyors & Claims Adjusters Shipping Agents & Correspondents Russia & Ukraine www.antarica.com To: Steamship Insurance Management Services Ltd Att.: Loss prevention department SUBJECT: SUBSTANTIAL PARCELS OF CONTAMINATED BY ORGANIC CHLORIDES RUSSIAN CRUDE AVAILABILITY OF MARKET GENERAL INFORMATION We have had a number of enquiries from Members IG Clubs regarding possibility of storage and carriage of crude oil cargo supplied by Public Joint Stock Company «Transneft» (further “Transneft”) pumped through the “Druzhba” pipeline, which is delivering the this cargo to the Western Europe via Belorussia and Poland. Members are offered to load and store (till further order of cargo interests) shipping parcels of this cargo, rejected by refineries in Belorussia, Poland and some other European Countries. The following information and recommendations must be issued clarifying this matter. ORIGIN OF THE PROBLEM Rejection of the cargo transshipment and carriage by above mentioned countries is based on the fact of higher content of Organic Сhlorides. These compounds (organic chlorides containing hydrochloric acid and free chlorine) are introduced into the oil with reagents used in oil production processes. Till 2018, the Russian Law regulated the content of this compound in the application of oil production, namely, since July 2002, a new GOST R 51858 - 2002 was made in force, regulating the quality indicators of commercial oil, which set the standard for the content of organic chlorides in oil. However, further such regulations were canceled, and some small oil producers and suppliers began to use this compound without control. In this regard, there were parcels of cargo containing a substantially larger proportion of this compound being brought to the market.

    IAEA-SM-354/222P XA9952071 DISTRIBUTION OF POLLUTANTS IN THE RUSSIAN SECTOR OF THE BLACK SEA COASTAL ZONE KOSYAN R.D, YESIN N.V. The Southern Branch of the RR Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, RAS. Gelendkhik- 7, 353470 Russia For the latest 30-40 years the Black Sea pollution by various pollutants is observed. It is the result of economical activity intensification on the shore and of slow growth of cleaning system capacity. • In the coastal zone concentration of pollutants depends on the pollutant amount brought from the source and the process of their distribution and transport to the open sea. Within the Krasnodar region towns of Novorossiisk, Gelendzhik, Tuapse, Sochi and the ports of Novorossiisk and Tuapse are the main sources of pollutants. On the basis of many years of research we may state that near the Krasnodar region coast there is a general longitudinal current directed from the south-east to the north-west, i.e. from Sochi towards Anapa. Velocity of this current sometimes reaches 1 m/s. This general stream is rather pronounced one during autumn-winter-spring period. In this period its mean monthly velocity is from 10 to 35 days. In summer months it is feebly marked. In different years mean monthly velocity was from 4 to 25 days. Due to a weak water circulation in summer there occur stagnant effects in the coastal zone provoked by the accumulation of pollutants in water. Sizeable areas of polluted water are formed near the sources of pollutants. Not far from the outlets of badly purified sewage waters clouds of muddy water with sharp boundaries are formed.

The diesel was loaded on 4 May on the 113,300t Dong-A Thetis, owned by the South Korean shipping company Dong-A Tanker. The 100,000t cargo of Rosneft product was sold to trading company Vitol for delivery to the Amsterdam-Rotter- dam-Antwerp region, a market participant says.
