The Amur Gas Processing Plant (GPP) near the town of Svobodny, Amur Region, is one of the largest gas processing enterprises in the world. The implementation of such an ambitious project in the area of gas processing has no parallel in the history of Russia’s gas sector.
The GPP is an essential link in the process chain of natural gas supplies to China via the Power of Siberia gas pipeline.

The plant receives multi-component gas via the Power of Siberia gas pipeline from the Chayandinskoye field in Yakutia and the Kovyktinskoye field in the Irkutsk Region.
Initially, the fundamental principle that underpinned the project was the necessity to process within the Russian Federation the multi-component gas fed from Power of Siberia.
The second production train and the first of three helium units were launched in September 2021. At the same time, the world’s biggest Logistics Center for the servicing of helium containers (helium hub) came onstream in Vladivostok.
The commissioning of the next four trains will be synchronized with increases in the volumes of gas transmitted via Power of Siberia.
In 2025, the GPP will reach its full design capacity.
In addition to process units and off-site facilities, the project provides for the construction of access roads, railway communications, a wharf on the Zeya River, and a residential microdistrict in Svobodny for future employees.
Gazprom Pererabotka Blagoveshchensk (part of the Gazprom Group) is the investor, customer, and operator for the Amur GPP. Construction management is carried out by NIPIGAZ (part of the SIBUR Group).
The project gives a big impetus to social and economic development in the Amur Region and other Far Eastern regions. With construction at its peak, some 35,000 people, including Amur Region residents, are engaged in the project. When the plant opens, it will employ around 3,000 people.
In order to accommodate employees, a residential microdistrict is being built in Svobodny. The microdistrict has apartment houses, an outpatient clinic, a kindergarten, a school, a sports center, a cultural center with a concert hall, and a children’s art center.
