Trutnev told Norwegian Minister of Petroleum and Energy Odd Roger Enoksen that first tenders for sectors of Russia’s continental shelf (four in the Barents Sea and two in the Sea of Okhotsk) would be held three months after the new mineral extraction law comes into force, RIA Novosti.

Enoksen said his country “would welcome contributions from Russian companies in Norwegian continental shelf development projects.”
