MOSCOW, May 8 (Reuters) - Exxon Neftegaz Ltd said on Friday it was adjusting the schedule and scope of some of its activities at the Sakhalin-1 oil and gas project in far-eastern Russia as it moved to cut spending in response to the coronavirus and weak oil prices.
It declined to give further details.
