Why Arctic is so important?
Arctic is believed to be an area with the highest unexplored HC potential in the world
By 2035 the demand for oil and gas will grow globally by 18% and 44%, respectively
60% of planned oil and gas production in 2035 will be from fields, not yet found and discovered

§ Russian estimates show that HC potential of the area of ca. 170 000 km2 amounts to 6.8 BTOE, mainly gas
§ USGS estimates are somewhat 4 times lower – ca. 1.7 BTOE
§ To successfully develop this zone a “Unitization principle” is required

Barents Sea
* Russian part of the former Grey Zone HC resources is included in this evaluation
§ Barents and Pechora seas with their almost 31 billion TOE* of oil and gas resources represent one of the most attractive areas of the petroleum resources development
§ Discovered in the Barents Sea: – 2 gas-condensate fields –
Shtokman and Ledovoye – 3 gas fields – Ludlovskoye,
Murmanskoye and North-Kildinskoye
§ Potentially interesting structures – in the Fersman-Demidov shoulder, Shatsky, Vernadsky, Medvezhy and Admiralteisky swells.

We can have a safe, secure and reliable development of arctic resources… only through cooperation, not competition, among arctic nations.
Any other way of doing this… will not benefit any nation in the long run.
