Today the Prirazlomnaya offshore ice-resistant stationary platform has been delivered to the Prirazlomnoye field in the Pechora Sea.

Experts are to fix the platform on the seafloor at a previously prepared site. Afterwards, they will start to surface the platform perimeter with crushed rock and granite fraction. This is required for preventing the soil erosion and platform movement from the drilling location.

Following the completion of this operation as well as the startup activities at the drilling facilities, the first production well drilling will commence at the Prirazlomnoye field. The drilling is planned to begin before late 2011.
