Russian technical standards watchdog Rostekhnadzor identified 22 violations during an inspection of the oil pipeline being built as part of the Sakhalin-2 project, the head of the agency's division for the Far East District Alexander Poleshchuk told journalists, Interfax reports.
The violations will require minor changes in the project documentation, Poleshchuk said. Work on the pipeline will not be suspended, he said.
"Yes, we uncovered violations, issued warnings to remedy them, but the violations are not critical," Poleshchuk said.
