据天然气新闻2021年6月3日巴黎报道，最近改名的法国能源巨头道达尔能源公司6月3日在巴黎表示，该公司已与俄罗斯第2大天然气公司诺瓦泰克签署了一项协议，收购北极液化天然气（LNG）转运公司10%的股份，后者拥有并将运营位于俄罗斯北部的2个LNG转运终端。
与此同时，作为合作伙伴的诺瓦泰克正准备在2023年启动其第二大LNG出口项目北极LNG -2项目。随着俄罗斯实现其碳氢化合物组合的多样化，诺瓦泰克正牵头俄罗斯的LNG复兴，道达尔能源公司以及日本企业是诺瓦泰克的合作伙伴。
诺瓦泰克计划利用其包租的破冰船将LNG出口到转运中心，然后在转运中心把LNG装载到常规LNG运输船上，从而限制了冰级油轮的使用，降低了成本和二氧化碳排放。
道达尔能源公司首席执行官帕特里克·波漾在一份公司声明中表示：“这些终端标志着北极LNG -2项目的推进和巩固迈出重要的一步，它将有助于我们现有的和正在开发的亚马尔项目货物的安全和可持续出口。”
这些转运终端位于摩尔曼斯克，用于向西运输LNG，位于远东的堪察加半岛用于向亚洲供应LNG。
