Novak announced the possibility of supplying 10 billion cubic meters of gas to the Far East

Russia will be able to additionally supply about 10 billion cubic meters of gas for the gasification of the regions of the Far East. This was announced on September 4 by Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum – 2025 (WEF-2025).

"A Far Eastern project with a capacity of 10 billion cubic meters of gas is being implemented," Novak said.

According to him, Gazprom is currently implementing a large–scale project to build a bridge between the Power of Siberia and Sakhalin–Khabarovsk-Vladivostok pipelines, connecting the pipelines of the Far East into a single gas system.

Novak added that during the state visit to China, a memorandum was signed on a new large-scale project for the construction of a gas pipeline infrastructure from Western Siberia through Mongolia to China.

"We are talking about additional supplies of 50 billion cubic meters of gas per year for a period of 30 years. This is a very important project, including in the development of relations between Russia and China," said the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation.

He added that the first Power of Siberia project reached its design capacity of 38 billion cubic meters of gas this year and connected Russia and China with a gas pipeline infrastructure. Thus, the capacity of the pipeline infrastructure between Russia and China will amount to about 100 billion cubic meters of gas per year, Novak concluded.

The parties agreed to triple the supply, and export revenue could reach more than $27 billion per year.

On the same day, Russian President Vladimir Putin, at a meeting on the development of the fuel and energy complex (fuel and energy complex), called the sustainable gas supply of the Far East one of the key tasks of the region's development. According to him, demand for natural gas is projected to increase several times in the Far East in the coming years.
