Natural Gas Sales

Our sales of natural gas in the Russian domestic market are mainly through trunk pipelines and regional distribution networks, as well as sales of LNG mainly through its own refueling complexes. 

Since the beginning of 2024, end-customers from the Yamal LNG have been provided with certificates on the carbon footprint of LNG shipments, prepared on the basis of the developed “Methodology for quantifying greenhouse gas emissions and carbon footprint”, which was successfully validated by an independent accredited organization in 2023. Our successful LNG sales in the leading international markets, flexible and optimized logistics solutions helping reduce the already low carbon footprint of our LNG demonstrate that LNG produced in the Arctic can be highly competitive anywhere in the world.

In 2024, natural gas sales volumes, including volumes of LNG sold, aggregated 77.76 bcm, representing an decrease of 1.1% as compared to 2023.
