    ROSNEFT PREPARES $60 BLN OIL CONTRACT WITH CHINA

    ST. PETERSBURG, June 20 (Itar-Tass) - Russia's oil major Rosneft has
    prepared a 60-billion-U.S. dollar-worth contract with China on oil
    sales, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday at a meeting
    with Chinese Prime Minister Zhang Gaoli.

    "A large-scale, unprecedented contract with Rosneft has been drafted.

    Oil supplies to China are expected to reach several hundreds million
    tons, to a sum of 60 billion U.S. dollars," the Russian president said.

    "We pin big hopes on cooperation between China and Russia's Gazprom,
    and Novatek. These are large-scale long-term projects for years to
    come," Putin said. "Our focus is also on high technologies sector. I
    am sure we have good prospects in this area as well."

    Energy dialogue with Russia in the focus of the visit of the Chinese
    delegation to St. Petersburg "We came to participate in the forum,
    but the other reason for our visit is to continue discussions with
    local partners to strengthen cooperation in the energy sector,"
    said, for his part, Deputy Prime Minister of the State Council of
    the PRC. "Now global economy recovers with difficulties. I think,
    the theme of the forum - the strengthening of the global economy -
    is chosen well. I'm convinced that this forum will bring great results
    and be successful," said Zhang Gaoli.

    Recalling that the President Xi Jinping made his first visit to
    Russia the first Vice-premier of China emphasized that he considered
    his duty to implement the agreements reached at the meeting when the
    two leaders agreed.

    When the Russian president presented his delegation to Chinese
    partners, Zhang Gaoli called the head of "Rosneft" Igor Sechin his
    good friend. Putin joked: "He's probably spends more time in China
    than in Russia."

    First Vice-premier of China thanked the Russian leader for support
    in the aftermath of the earthquake in the country.

    On April 20, 2013, in Lushan County, Sichuan Province an earthquake
    of magnitude 7.0 took place. In result about 200 people died, more
    than 12 thousand were injured.
