Russian energy giant Gazprom claims a subsidiary of state owned China’s CNPC is to take part in the construction of a gas processing plant.
The firm said China Petroleum Engineering & Construction Corporation (СРЕСС) would take part in designing and procurement of equipment for the Amur gas processing plant in Russia’s Far East.
The plant’s capacity is planned at 42 billion cubic metres of gas per year.
The gas from the plant will be supplied to China.
