India’s state-run Oil and Natural Gas Corp. has proposed to Rosneft that the two jointly bid for the strategic Trebs and Titov fields in the Arctic north, Vedomosti reported Tuesday.
Rosneft’s spokesman declined to comment on the report, but a source in the company said there had been no specific talks with ONGC concerning the highly coveted deposits, the largest to be put up for auction in the last five years. “Indian companies have been interested in joint projects with Rosneft for a long time, and we are always communicating, but no discussions have reached an advanced stage,” he said.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
