Gazprom plans to launch commercial gas production from the Kirinskoye field in the Sakhalin region of Russia and to build a CNG filling station in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk in 2014. The company will also carry on the construction of the gas branch and the Nogliki gas distribution station (GDS), as well as the inter-settlement gas pipelines connecting the Nogliki GDS with the Nogliki gas distribution point and the Nogliki GDS with the Nysh settlement.
Between 2009 and 2013 Gazprom invested more than RUB 250bn (US$7.2bn) over five years. The funds were mainly allocated to the following strategic projects of Gazprom: the construction of the Sakhalin – Khabarovsk – Vladivostok gas transmission system (GTS), pre-development of the Kirinskoye gas and condensate field (Sakhalin III) and construction of a gas pipeline from the onshore processing facility of the Kirinskoye field to the Sakhalin main compressor station of the Sakhalin – Khabarovsk – Vladivostok GTS. In 2014 the capital investments will make up RUB 10bn (US$2.9bn).
