Background

In March 2021, this terminal was included in the government long-term LNG development program.[3] In July 2023, it was mentioned in the news as a potential project of Gazprom.[4] There have been no other recent development updates related to this project, but since its start year is 2030, it is still considered proposed.

The project was not included into the "Energy Strategy of the Russian Federation until 2050", released by the Ministry of Energy of Russia in April 2025. [5]

In March 2025, Gazprom's subsidiary "Gazprom Dobycha Tambey" began construction of an offshore loading terminal at the Tambeyskoye Oil and Gas Complex. The main goal of the construction is to create infrastructure for the storage of stable gas condensate (SGC) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). It is planned that, in the future, the Tambey field will become the feedstock base for the ethane-rich gas processing complex in the Ust-Luga area of Leningrad region.[6][7]

As of June 2026, there have not been any further updates.
