Gazprom cancels 46 bln rbl tender for Kirinskoye field facilities

MOSCOW, Nov 27 (PRIME) -- Russian gas giant Gazprom has cancelled a 46.187 billion ruble tender for construction of onshore facilities and underwater production units at the Kirinskoye gas and condensate field, as seen by PRIME on Tuesday in the materials of the government’s website for disclosure of data on state procurements.

Reasons for the decision were not disclosed.

Gazprom announced the tender on November 22 although it already chose its subsidiary Gazprom Avtomatizatsiya to build the same facilities and units in February and signed a 35.3 billion ruble contract with the company. A Gazprom representative said last week that the new contract would include some additional works and would adjust the amount of planned works and deadlines.
