At its regular session Gazprom’s Management Committee has endorsed a List of Top Priority Facilities identified as capital construction targets over 2005 and heard a report on the construction progress.
The Management Committee emphasized that the construction of some facilities was falling behind the schedule. To this end, Gazprom’s core business units were entrusted with stepping up exhaustive measures aiming to timely obtain infrastructure construction and land registration permissions and to avoid delays in the supply of goods to facilities under commissioning.
Reference:
Under Gazprom’s 2005 Draft investment program, the capital investment ceiling totals RUR 108 bln, as stipulated in the approved List of Top Priority Facilities.
