Norway and Yamal to work more closely in oil and gas sphere
A Norwegian delegation is about to set off for Salekhard on the Yamal peninsular to discuss ways of working more
closely with the region in the oil and gas sphere.
The Norwegian delegation will be visiting the capital of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District and will be led by
Norwegian Ambassador to Russia Oivind Nordsletten.
The delegation's programme includes a meeting with Governor of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District Yuri Neyolov and
representatives of the local administration as well as business circles interested in establishing ties with
Norwegian partners.
Mr Nordsletten intends to visit the regional information centre for geology, geophysics and hunting and fishing. This
centre, which is the first of its kind in Russia, contains information on nature management and oil extraction.
