“The Caspian Sea is a testing ground for Russian oil and gas companies. Here, they can gain experience in the integrated development of offshore fields and test new technology for oil exploration and production. I have confidence that they’ll be able to capitalise on this unique experience when they embark on the full-scale development of the fields on the continental shelf. This is one of the challenges we’ll need to meet to keep oil and gas production stable in the long run.”
