Gryazovets-Volkhov Gas Pipeline (Russian: Газопровод Грязовец - Волхов) is a proposed gas pipeline in Russia.[1][2]
Location
The pipeline is proposed to start in Gryazovetsky District, Vologda Oblast, Russia and to run to Volkhovsky District, Leningrad Oblast, Russia.[2]
Project details
- Operator: Gazprom[2]
- Owner: Gazprom[2]
- Parent company: Gazprom
- Capacity:
- Length: 602 km[3]
- Diameter: 1400 mm[1]
- Status: Construction[4][5]
- Start Year:
- Cost:
- Financing:
- Associated infrastructure: Ust-Luga LNG terminal
Background
In January 2022, the construction of the gas pipeline pipes commenced.[4][5]
The pipeline is to supply gas to an LNG plant and a gas processing facility in Ust-Luga to produce LNG and other products such as polyethylene.[3]
Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the sanctions and the withdrawal of partners, including Linde GmbH, may have delayed the project.[6] Russia is considering alternatives such as domestic turbines or partnering with China.[7][8] As of July 2023, the status of the project is uncertain, with the latest update in December 2022 claiming that the LNG plant was in construction.[7]
With the Nord Stream pipelines mothballed, there is a surplus of gas in the region, which may also lead to a delay for the Gryazovets-Volkhov Gas Pipeline.
