In the words of the minister, Russia has also proposed to Japan to expand technological cooperation in the Russian natural gas industry. In particular, the minister specified, the Russian side is interested in technologies of industrial recovering of helium from natural gas.
In December last year, Gazprom became the holder of the controlling block of stock of the Sakhalin-2 project in which only foreign companies – the English-Dutch corporation Royal Dutch/Shell, as well as Japanese Mitsubishi and Mitsui had participated.
