Shareholders of Japan's Sodeco unanimously voted to continue participation in the project to develop the Sakhalin-1 oil and gas fields, the NHK TV channel reported, citing sources. Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin transferred the management of Sakhalin-1 to Rosneft, due to ExxonMobil's refusal to work in Russia. At the same time, the operator of the project was re-registered in Russian jurisdiction, similar to Sakhalin-2. Share of Japanese Sodeco in Sakhalin-1 is 30%.
