Port of Ust-Luga and multimodal complex

Ust-Luga is the site of an important coal and fertiliser terminal, constructed at a cost of $2.1 billion. Construction work started in 1997, in part to avoid dry cargo shipments through the Baltic states,[1] and was accelerated at the urging of President Vladimir Putin, who inaugurated the new port facilities in 2001. The 3,700-metre approach canal is deep and capable of accommodating ships with a capacity of 150,000 tonnes and more. In May 2008, Putin confirmed[2] that Ust-Luga will be the final point of the projected Second Baltic Pipeline,[3] an oil transportation route bypassing Belarus.

The Ust-Luga container terminal was launched in December 2011. It is operated by the National Container Company.[4]

The port adjoins the Ust-Luga Multimodal Complex, which allows for immediate freight handling on site.

In 2018, the port handled 98.7 million tonnes of cargo.[5]

In October 2021, Gazprom and RusGazDobycha announced they would build a plant to process ethane-containing natural gas and a large-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) production plant, Baltic LNG, with a capacity of 13 million tons of LNG per year.[6][7] High-ethane gas from the Tambeyskoye gas field and the Achimov and Valanginian deposits of the Nadym-Pur-Taz region will supply the plant.[8][9]

An Ust-Luga oil terminal operated by Novatek was attacked by a Ukrainian aerial drone on the night of 21 January 2024 during the Russian invasion of Ukraine hostilities, causing a fire that forced the suspension of some operations.[10]


التعداد

As of 2005, the population of Ust-Luga did not exceed 2,000, but the port administration expected it to grow to 34,000 by 2025.[11]
