The latest campaign involved dredging, installation and backfill works on four separate pipelines; laying of one oil and one gas pipeline from Chaivo beach on mainland Sakhalin to the newly installed Piltun-B platform; and one oil and one gas line also from Chaivo Beach to the existing Molikpaq (Piltun-A) platform. Total length of these lines is over 230-km.
