[edit] History
The original consortium was formed in 1991 by Marathon, McDermott, Mitsui and Russian Federation as MMM Consortium. Shell and Mitsubishi joined the consortium in 1992, to make it MMMMS. In April 1994, the consortium (excluding Russian Federation) formed Sakhalin Energy Investment Company Ltd. to develop and manage the Sakhalin II project. McDermott sold its share to the other partners in 1997 and Marathon traded its share to Shell for other properties (the BP operated Foinaven field, near the Shetland Islands, and an eight block area in the Gulf of Mexico—including the Ursa field) in 2000.
In 2007, Gazprom purchased a 50% share of the company and became a leading shareholder.[1]
