Key projects

In 2005, the construction and equipment installation at the Anadyr gas-motor heat-power station which feeds from the West-Ozernoye gas field was completed. The use of natural gas as basic fuel will allow for the considerable improvement of the ecological situation in the Okrug by decreasing the level of emissions in the atmosphere during coal utilization. Hence the cost of power will drop, and reliability and quality of power supply will be higher.

Between 2002 and 2004, the “Construction of a 35 kW Power Line the Anadyr Thermoelectric Plant-the settlement of Ugolnye Kopi-the settlement of Kanchalan-Valunisty - the settlement of Egvekinot” project was under way in the Okrug. Launch of 200-kilometre-long “Egvekinot – Valunistyi” Power Line (110 KW) allowed full provision of the needs of the Valunisty deposits developer with power. A 90-kilometer-long 110 KW power line from Komsomolskiy settlement to Rytkuchi village was built in Chauskiy Region. All these projects make it possible to enable the unused capacities of Egvekinotskaya Town Regional Power Station Chaun-Bilibinsky energy unit and cut down the expenses for supply of diesel fuel.

A launch of a cable line laid from the Anadyr Thermoelectric Power Station along the estuary onto the left shore made it possible to keep the diesel power stations in reserve, drop the cost of expensive diesel fuel, and provide stable and high-quality power supply for the airport and Ugolnye Kopi village of the Okrug.

The program of economic development in Chukotka can be carried out, considers vice-premier of government CHAO M. Sobolev.

First of all, the long-term program leans on resources of peninsula. Let’s begin that geological resources of Chukotka are explored today on 10 %-17 %. The next regions are explored much better. And even on these, tentative estimations resources here can be found. The proved resources of gas on the Priosernoe deposit - 7,3 billion cubic meters. Oil resources are estimated approximately in 10 million tons, the proved stocks make 4 million tons of them. They are dispersed on small Fields, such, as Hatirskoe, where extraction is conducted by "Sibneft" company. But it is not necessary to dismiss a shelf – it’s insufficiently studied yet, but there are data, that it’s resources can make up to 14 billion tons of conditional fuel. Exxon Mobile Company in similar ice conditions, in Baffin bay has constructed 7 platforms. What prevents to construct them here?

Reindeer breeding can be profitable: E. Marochkin acting on the head of agriculture and foodstuffs department makes comments.

There was a moratorium on an industrial slaughter of deers in district till 2006. But now it is removed, farms have allocated a contingent for commodity slaughter this year. It is planned to hand over in a trading network about 9 thousand deers this year. Within the limits of national project the agrarian and industrial complex have got slaughter area on terms of financial leasing which is assembled in Kanchalan. Basically its value is in that correctly cut production will receive a trade look and will answer all established norms. The livestock of deers for September, 1st - from above 183 thousand. It’s below the level of 1990 (490 thousand heads), nevertheless, in Chukotka a livestock grows on faster rates, than on Yamal, and it’s our main competitor. Potential market - not only Vladivostok, but also Japan, Korea, China. Reindeer breeding is, at least, preservation of a traditional way of life of native people and food safety of region and when sales volumes become great enough, branch can turn in profitable.
