Potential Development Description The development of the three fields will involve a combination of large, ice-resistant platforms and subsea templates. Significant onshore facilities, pipelines and project infra- structure will have to be established on the island in order to support the project and the export of oil and gas. Portions of the onshore facilities and pipelines may be a joint industry project serving all offshore Sakhalin fields. Production from the project will be available to both local and export markets. Russian members of the consortium and the foreign partners will be responsible for marketing their own respective shares of production. Project Timeline Feb. 1991 — Exxon and SODECO agreed to jointly pursue Sakhalin offshore tender opportunities. Nov. 1993 — Russian Federation Government and Sakhalin Oblast grant rights to negotiate for Sakhalin I exploration and development including the Chayvo, Odoptu, and Arkutun-Dagi fields to Exxon and SODECO. Dec. 1993 — An agreement was signed by the Russian Federation Government, the Sakhalin Oblast, Sakhalinmorneftegaz, and Exxon/SODECO to perform Technical and Economic Calculations (TER) for the evaluation of the development of the Sakhalin I fields. Sept. 1994 — The TER was submitted for expertise review and approved as the basis for further PSA negotiations. May 1995 —Rosneft-Sakhalin and Sakhalinmorneftegaz-Shelf joined Exxon and SODECO in a Consortium to develop the Sakhalin I fields through the JOA. June 1995 — The Sakhalin I PSA was approved by the Russian Federation Government, the Sakhalin Oblast, and the Consortium. Jan. 1996 — The Russian Federation Government adopted the Law on Production Sharing. Work continues on additional legislative and normative acts that will be required to complete the legal and fiscal framework for PSAs. June 1996 — Licenses are granted to the Consortium by the Russian Federation Government and the Sakhalin Oblast covering the Sakhalin I fields. $159 Million Navy Contract Awarded The U.S. Navy has awarded a $159 million contract to the Lockheed Martin-Raytheon- Northrop Grumman team for the design, devel- opment, integration, and testing of the New Attack Submarine (NSSN) command, control, communications and intelligence (C3IS) for sonar, combat control and architecture subsys- tems. As one of the principal subcontractors to Lockheed Martin Federal Systems, Raytheon Electronics Systems (RES) will receive an ini- tial contract for approximately $40 million dol- lars to begin design efforts on the program. Raytheon will be responsible for the combat control subsystem, which coordinates all tar- geting and torpedo/missile launches, and for the transmit portion of the sonar subsystems. "This is an important win for our Portsmouth, R.I., operations and helps solidify our role as a key player in designing and pro- ducing combat control systems for the Navy," said Walter V. Trainor, vice president and manager of naval programs for RES. The NSSN is the Navy's next-generation attack submarine and is designed to ensure that the Navy can maintain battlefield domi- nance of undersea warfare. The Raytheon work will be performed at its Portsmouth, R.I. operations. For more information on Raytheon Circle 61 on Reader Service Card 12 Maritime Reporter/Engineering News
