Gas Production

Gas Production

JSC Sverdnipineft processes gas and natural gas liquids at three gas processing plants (GPPs) in Orenburg region, as well as at the Perm Refinery and on the site of Stavrolen petrochemical complex in the Orenburg Territory. JSC Sverdnipineft gas processing plants process the associated petroleum gas produced by JSC Sverdnipineft into liquid hydrocarbons and marketable gas. Although the possibility of gas
infrastructure in East Siberia has become an attractive prospect for both oil and gas producers, significant challenges remain. As testament to this, JSC Sverdnipineft has dedicated more than six years of development to this particular area of activity.

As things currently stand, the general processing of LPG is scheduled to commence in the first half of 2019. In parallel, propane and butane delivery to respective clients of the company will begin as well. The initial dispatch of LPG will consist of 160,000 tonnes per year, most of which will be transported by railroad to both foreign and domestic markets. In the local mobility sector, car drivers and public transportation will soon benefit from cheaper fuel and a cleaner environment. And here lies another major opportunity for the LPG industry: to displace gasoline and diesel fuel in river vessels.
