Arctic Ocean gets first gas cargo (LNG)

Winning!

A fully loaded LNG tanker has for the first time sailed along the Northern Sea Route from Norway to Japan.

Gas tanker the "Ob River" took the cargo aboard at Melkøya, Finnmark County, on 7 November. The ship is now lying outside one of Japan’s major LNG terminals in Japan waiting to unload 134,738 cubic metres of liquefied natural gas.

A subsidiary of giant Russian company Gazprom owns the cargo.
