  • Site selection coordination / tenders and subsidies programs in both countries. 

  • Preparation of subsidy dossiers: French C3IV tax credit, EU Innovation Fund. 

  • Elaboration of business and financial plan. 

ARCTIC LNG 2

3 LNG PLANTS [Russia - north of the Polar Circle]

​Project size 

  • 22 Bn€ for 3 plants of 680 000 t each including 150 000 t of Plant Modules

  • 19.8 Mtpa of LNG

  • Over 70 000 workers on more than 10 sites

  • 11.5 Bn€ Project Finance

​

Achievements

  • Creation of the Project from scratch in Novatek, running concept, Pre FEED, FEED and EPC.

  • All organisation and project monitoring procedures defined and implemented, contract templates, mob plans etc. 

  • Optimisation of the Execution Plans and negotiation on all contracts including 2 multi Bn€ EPC contracts.

  • The Project maintained on cost and on time despite 2 years of Covid until 95% of progress for Plant 1 in Feb 2022. 

  • At that time, the project was running to reach one the lowest cost per ton of LNG in the world.

  • A claim of over 270 M€ resolved for less then 10 M€.

Yamal LNG

3 LNG PLANTS [Russia - north of the Polar Circle]

Project size 

  • 29 Bn€ for 3 modular plants of 485 000 t each 

  • 16.5 Mtpa of LNG (largely exceeding this performance today)

  • Over 60 000 workers on more than 10 sites

  • 18.5 Bn€ Project Finance

Achievements​​

  • We created and defended the Project concept and created a team with Novatek running concept, PreFEED, FEED and EPC. 

  • We optimised the Execution Plan and negotiated many contracts including a multi Bn€ EPC contract.

  • The Project delivered on cost and on a record 48 months time despite Arctic conditions.

  • At that time, the project was running to reach one the lowest cost per ton of LNG in the world.

  • We closed the largest ever External Project Finance.​
