Panalpina opens in Murmansk
Panalpina said it's opening an office in Murmansk, a Russian city close to the borders of Norway and Finland.
The logistics services provider said it has focused on the region for many years, mostly because of the Shtokman gas field development. Shtokman, the world's largest natural gas field, has been held by Sevmorneftegaz, a joint venture of Russian energy companies Gazprom and Rosneft, since 1992.
Panalpina said it will offer logistics services at Murmansk to Russian and international oil and gas specialty firms, such as seismic companies, drilling contractors, supply and support vessel operators, oilfield service and supply companies, engineering firms and offshore construction companies.
