Russian President Vladimir Putin urges Rosneft and Exxon Mobil to expand cooperation with joint projects in the Gulf of Mexico and the US.
During a video conference from the Orlan drilling rig Putin said that the Black Sea and the shelf procure a vast field of work and he is pleased that Exxon Mobil is becoming a strategic partner of Russia’s largest company Rosneft. Putin expects Rosneft and Exxon Mobil also to cooperate in other regions of the world, in particular the Gulf of Mexico and the US.
President of Exxon Mobil Development Neil Duffin pointed out that their mutual plans with Rosneft involve the construction of oil rigs similar to Orlan for carrying out joint projects.
