Arctic Projects during Energy Pivot to East
The 24 February 2022 events have, on the one hand, radically rewritten the economic agenda and, on the other, revealed the actual status of projects that have been said to be actively developing for many years now.
While before the heavy sanctions one could turn a blind eye to the implementation rates of the plans that were constantly voiced by high-ranking officials, now the fate of the Russian economy depends on their status without any exaggeration. One of them is the Arctic.
The closing European markets have dramatically increased the need for delivery routes to Asia.
Everyone has recalled that many years ago promises were made already to turn the Northern Sea Route into a fully functional transport artery. One that will make it possible, among other things, to remove oil and LNG from Arctic fields.
The need for export to the east via the NSR is obvious. But the trouble is that there are difficulties rather than breakthroughs poised to happen. Besides, production projects in the Arctic that have for a long time been viewed as a new centre of oil and gas production need to be audited too.
The new report covers the following subjects:
Staff changes in the system of government administration of the Arctic
Upgrade of strategic documents on Arctic development
- Including the new Northern Sea Route Development Plan to 2035
- Mere formalities still or change of approach?
Analysis of the actual status of the NSR
- Including development of the icebreaker and tanker fleets as well as port and other infrastructure
- Can the logistics really be reorganised towards the east?
- New system of government administration of the NSR
Corporate projects to develop production and export of hydrocarbons in the Arctic
- Intensification of fight between lobbyists for allocated resources
Situation with LNG production in and export from the Arctic
- Influence of technological sanctions and problems with gas tankers
Medium-term outlook for Arctic and NSR development

Special report:
Nord Stream 2 and Ukraine: Costs Should Decide
There has been much discussion about how Russia – Europe’s biggest gas supplier – can continue to supply gas to Europe over the coming decades in the most secure and cost efficient way. Gazprom and its European partners have decided that building two additional pipelines through the Baltic Sea (Nord Stream 2) is the best commercial solution to secure future gas supplies for the EU, where gas production continues to decline and demand is expected to grow.Shale Revolution: Myths and Realities
The boom in shale gas production in the US and its wide-ranging influence on markets rocked the gas world. Liquefied gas deliveries were redirected, altering the already fragile balance of demand and supply in traditional markets for pipeline gas in Europe.Liquefied Natural Gas Outlook: Expectations and Reality
World market has shown interest to liquefied gas. Russia has so far been aside of it. However, producers have announced several large LNG projects. The new study will help investigate this delicate subject and understand what is in store for LNG production and export in the nearest years.Analytical series “The Fuel and Energy Complex of Russia”:
Lithium: New Energy Eldorado?
The energy transition is, on the one hand, rightly perceived by Russian oil and gas companies as a threat to their business. On the other, one should also look for new opportunities in the new energy industry. One of them is the production of lithium, the most important resource for electric vehicle batteries. The industry is rapidly growing, which opens up new horizons, for conventional fuel and energy companies, among others. Lithium is already beginning to cause increased interest in Russia, which calls for close scrutiny of the topic.West’s Latest Sanctions Decisions, Their Effect on Russian Oil and Gas Industry
The report presents an analysis of the latest sanctions decisions on the part of the US, EU, and United Kingdom as well as practical measures to implement them.State regulation of the oil and gas sector in 2023, 2024 outlook
The year 2023 posed a serious challenge to the Russian oil and gas sector that was subjected to extremely tough sanctions that could have led to collapse in exports of crude oil and petroleum products. The oil industry and corresponding regulatory mechanisms were tested throughout the year. The state, being in dire need of financial resources, had to save the chicken that lays golden eggs. How well is it coping with this task?Gazprom in the period of expulsion from the European market. Possible evolution of the Russian gas market amid impediments to exports
The year 2023 saw an even larger drop in Russian exports of pipeline gas to Europe. In the past two years, Gazprom failed to export some 120 bcm of natural gas, and these quantities are now locked up in Russia. Another difficult case concerns extension of the current gas transit contract with Ukraine, which expires at the end of 2024. Gazprom is already looking for new opportunities.New Logistics of Russian Oil Business
When the G7 and the EU as of 5 December 2022 imposed an embargo on oil from Russia and the price cap mechanism that was later complemented with the same measures against petroleum products, Western analysts confidently predicted inevitable collapse in Russian exports by at least one-third. The new report explains in detail how the mechanism of Russian oil transport and sales works and whether Western companies remain in this business.All reports for: 2015 , 14 , 13 , 12 , 11 , 10 , 09 , 08 , 07
