Синдицированный кредит в 3,11 млрд евро для проекта «Арктик СПГ-2»

3.1 Bn Euro Loan for Arctic LNG 2

  • A syndicate of VEB.RF and commercial banks – Sberbank, Gazprombank, Bank GPB International S.A. and Otkritie Bank – has signed a syndicated loan agreement with Arctic LNG 2 Ltd to carry out the Arctic LNG 2 project.

    The syndicate of banks will lend 3.11 bn euro for 15 years to finance the construction of a facility designed for liquefied natural gas and stable gas condensate.

    “This is an extremely important initiative in the region. The project has strategic significance for the Northern Sea Route and operations in the Arctic. VEB.RF is involved in the project in partnership with Russian commercial banks. VEB.RF has already begun financing the construction of 15 ice-class gas carriers, which will be used to transport LNG under the Arctic LNG 2 project,” said Daniil Algulyan, Deputy Chairman, VEB.RF.

    “Sber will lend 2 billion euros for 15 years. Arctic LNG 2 will help Russia to strengthen its position in the global gas market. We find it especially important that the construction uses advanced technology that will help to minimise the environmental impact on Russia’s Arctic,” said Anatoly Popov, Deputy Chairman of the Executive Board, Sberbank.

    “We are a lender under the Yamal LNG project and we are pleased to be actively involved in another LNG megaproject implemented by NOVATEK, which is important for the socio-economic development of the entire country. I am sure the consolidated efforts of experienced, internationally recognised financial partners will ensure as much financing as necessary, and this will enable the construction to proceed at a fast pace,” said Alexey Belous, Deputy Chairman of the Management Board, Gazprombank.

    “Low production costs, an efficient financial model and strong international investors make the project unique and truly competitive. Arctic LNG 2 is important for the Russian economy, and as a nationwide bank we are interested in its successful implementation,” said Viktor Nikolaev, Deputy President & Chairman of the Management Board, Otkritie Bank.
