Russian producer Novatek is set to end Yamal LNG cargo transhipment in Norway.
It is planning to move the operation to the Murmansk region of Russia by the end of the year, the Interfax news agency reported.
"We have agreed on a location with the defense ministry, it's close to Kildin Island, but we need a decision to expand the Murmansk port's territory, on checkpoints," said Novatek chairman Leonid Mikhelson.
