Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet Royal Dutch Shell Chief Executive Ben van Beurden in Moscow this week, Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov told reporters on Tuesday.

Ushakov said Putin and the Shell boss will discuss the Sakhalin-2 liquefied natural gas (LNG) project on Russia's Pacific coast, where Shell is a minority shareholder, and a plan to build an LNG plant on Russia's Baltic coast. Shell and Russian gas giant Gazprom last year signed a memorandum of understanding to work together on the plant.
