Construction of a gas-to-chemicals complex on the premises of Stavrolen
Company: Lukoil
Investment: 5-7 billion US dollars
Lukoil company plans to develop a project for construction of a gas-to-chemicals complex on the premises of Stavrolen. FID was adopted in February 2018. The commissioning is expected not earlier than 2024. The new facility will process gas coming from the Caspian fields named Rakushechnoye and Kuvykina. As it was previously informed, the first phase of the complex would release carbamide, the second – polyethylene and polypropylene. The capacity of the plant is estimated at 5-7 billion US dollars.
Construction of an ammonia production complex Eurochem - North-West-2
Company: EuroChem
Investment: 2,5 billion US dollars
Within the project it is planned to build a complex for production of 1 million tonnes of ammonia, 1,2 million tonnes of carbamide, and 1,7 million tonnes of methanol. The plant will be built in Kingisepp. Overall investment is estimated at 2,5 billion US dollars. The construction of nitrogen facility could take 3-3,5 years, and the methanol facility will be commissioned a year later. The construction will be executed through own and loan funds. In June 2019, the company launched the first plant for production of ammonia (1 million tonnes). FID is expected in 2020.
Construction of a methanol production complex in Ust-Luga
Company: RusKhimKom
Investment: 1 billion euros

The capacity of the future plant will be 1,7 million tonnes of methanol per annum. Investment: 1,5 billion US dollars. The plant will be brought online in 2023. The project also includes the construction of a methanol transhipment terminal in the Baltics. To develop the project all the participants including Marubeni signed an agreement on trade and investment cooperation. The plant will be built based on safe and modern technology and it will be one of the biggest in the world in terms of per-unit capacity. The plant will
consume 1,6 billion cm of gas transmitted via Kokhtla-Yarve-Leningrad gas pipeline. The plant will be located in Ust-Luga (Leningrad region). Baltic Gas Chemical Company obtained the land rights for construction of the plant, deep-water sea terminal and a transportation corridor from the plant to the terminal and pipeline branch. This will allow to build all the production facilities, including the methanol plant, offshore terminal, and pipeline infrastructure. To supply gas to the future plant, the initiator concluded an agreement with one of the world’s leading producers. According to the concluded agreement, the producer will act as an investor in construction of an air separation unit, and as its operator after the start-up of the plant. The capacity of the air separation unit will amount to about 90k nm3/h. Outsourcing of industrial gases will allow to reduce capex and increase the efficiency of the project.
