연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

The consortium members started drilling in May 2003 and expect preliminary oil production of 250,000 bbl/d in 2005. The project's oil output will be piped westward to the Russian port of De-Kastri and pumped into the Russian system.

Construction of the project's two-train, 9.6-million-tons-per year facility began in Spring 2003, and Shell expects that initial production could begin in 2005 with exports scheduled to commence in 2007. According to press reports, the Sakhalin-II partners have already secured sales contracts with four Japanese utilities worth 3.4 million tons per year, or approximately 35% of the plant's output capacity, for roughly 20 years. The most recent of these contracts was announced in March 2004, and entails the sale of 300,000 tons of LNG per year to Japan's Toho Gas between 2010 and 2033.

  60. During President Roh Moo-hyun's four-day trip to Russia, the two governments reportedly signed an agreement on space technology transfer, which would allow the ROK to develop its own rocket to launch satellites into orbit and put one of the country's astronauts in space on a Russian spacecraft in the years to come. Russia also agreed to build a rocket-launch facility for civilian satellites in Goheung, South Jeolla province in the ROK by 2007. See “Russia to Send South Korea Joint Satellite Project Proposal,” Asia Pulse , Sept. 22, 2004; “Korea and Russia Agree on Space Launch Facility,” Joongang Ilbo , Oct. 28, 2004, p. 4.

The plan calls for a 1.2 Bcf per year pipeline, which would deliver roughly two-thirds of its gas annually to China, while delivering the rest to South Korea and smaller quantities to the domestic market en route. The partners expect that the pipeline could come on stream in 2008.
