Gryazovets-Vyborg Gas Pipeline (Russian: МГ Грязовец–Выборг) is an operating natural gas pipeline in Russia.[1]
Location
The pipeline runs from CS Gryazovetskaya in Gryazovets to CS Portovaya near Vyborg.[1]

Background
The Gryazovets-Vyborg I and Gryazovets-Vyborg II gas pipelines are aimed to supply gas to the Nord Stream export underwater gas pipeline and to consumers in the North-West region of Russia, Northwestern Federal District of Russia (Saint Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast).[1][8] Both pipelines source gas from the Yuzhno-Russkoye Oil and Gas Field and run parallel to each other, however, since Gryazovets-Vyborg II pipeline was built in loopings, its total length ended up being smaller than the Gryazovets-Vyborg I pipeline.[5]
Expansion projects
Gryazovets-Volkhov loopings
According to Gazprom, there are plans to construct multiple loops of the pipeline on the segment from Gryazovets to Volkhov.[9] A total of four loops were proposed, 213.2 kilometers long in total:
| Segment | Length, km |
|---|---|
| 59-121 km | 62 |
| 219-275 km | 56 |
| 340.8-386 km | 45.2 |
| 460-510 km | 50 |
The purpose of building loops is to increase the pipeline's capacity in order to provide more gas to the residents in Saint Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast.[9] The project plans were finalized in December 2015, and in August 2016 the plans were approved by the government review committee of the Russian Federation (Главгосэкспертиза России).[9] The project was included in the list of "Planned Transmission Gas Pipelines" issued by the Ministry of Energy of Russia in May 2015 and revised in May 2023. According to the document, the loopings will be built to connect the Gryazovets-Vyborg II Gas Pipeline in order to increase gas supply to the Unified Gas Supply System of the North-West region of Russia.[10]
As of July 2023, there are no updates on the project.
