The company now known as Wintershall Noordzee B.V. based in Rijswijk (The Netherlands) was established in 1965. One of the producers of natural gas in the Netherlands, Wintershall Noordzee operates a total of 11 producing offshore installations in the Southern North Sea, one of its traditional core regions.
The share of Russian Gazprom, which he is trying to sell, in the Netherlands' Wintershall Noordzee, was seized by the Hague court on August 15. "The arrest was imposed to secure the claim of the Ukrainian UC "Slavutich-invest" (related to the Ukrainian HD-group of Serhii Chekalskyi and Boris Shestopalov), which is trying to collect damages from the state company for the lost 8 plots in Melitopol. According to the plaintiff, companies of the Gazprom group, as an alter ego of the Russian Federation, are jointly and severally responsible for the debts of the Russian Federation, including the payment of compensation of 15 million dollars," the report reads.
