Urengoy-Center Gas Pipeline (Russian: Газопровод Уренгой - Центр) is an operating gas pipeline in Russia.[1]

Location

The pipeline runs from the Urengoy gas field to the Tambov Oblast in Russia.[2] The route is estimated based on Urengoy-Pomary-Uzhgorod pipeline, which shares the pipeline corridor.[3] The end point of the route is estimated to be at Pervomaiskaya compressor station.[4]

Background

The pipeline was constructed in two phases. Phase I is referred to as the Urengoy-Center I Gas Pipeline; Phase II is referred to as the Urengoy-Center II Gas Pipeline.[7] The pipelines run parallel to each other.[5]

The system of pipelines Urengoy-Pomary-Uzhgorod consists of six pipelines: Urengoy-Pomary-Uzhgorod Gas Pipeline, Urengoy-Center Gas Pipeline I and II, Yamburg-Yelets Gas Pipeline I and II, and Progress Gas Pipeline.

Accidents

In July 2021, the pipeline leaked and caught ablaze in the Perm Region[10] near the Sylva River about 1,390 kilometers east of Moscow.[2]
