Project related text:
The project aims at the gathering and transportation for useful utilization of APG, which otherwise would have been burnt at the flares of the field included in the project (Project fields) and, therefore, at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Project companies of TNK-BP Group took action to increase its useful utilization level: for this purpose the following activities have been/are implemented within 2003-2012:
•	Introduction of units of additional separation (UADs);
•	Construction of new gas pipelines and rehabilitation of old ones;
•	Introduction of compression stations (CS) and vacuum compressor stations (VCS);
•	Introduction of gas metering and reducing units etc.
These measures will allow capturing increased APG volumes (additional APG) and directing them into expanded TNK-BP gas transportation system. In turn, APG flaring will be reduced that will lead to prevention of CO2 and CH4 emissions.
Current status of the project Operational
Total verified emission reductions 0.0 t CO2 equivalent
