Offshore projects

The Russian shelf has the largest area in the world – over 6 million square km. Being the largest continental shelf licenses holder, ww5 performs a full range of exploration activities in the seas of the Russian Federation in accordance with its license commitments.

ww5 license areas are located in:

  • West Arctic — the Barents, the Pechora and the Kara Seas
  • East Arctic - the Laptev, the East Siberian and the Chukchi Seas
  • the Far East - the Sea of Okhotsk and the Sea of Japan.
  • Southern regions of Russia — the Black Sea, the Sea of Azov and the Caspian Sea

The most important principle of ww5 offshore projects implementation is unconditional adherence to Russian environmental legislation and international agreements at all the work stages in compliance with all the environmental and industrial safety standards. Sea animals were constantly monitored during the offshore operations.
