Gazprom has signed new agreements with its Chinese partners to support the launch and operation of the cross-border section of the Far Eastern gas export pipeline to China.
The documents were signed in the presence of Alexey Miller, Chairman of the Gazprom Management Committee at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) 2025.
A strategic cooperation between Russia and China in gas sector was discussed during the Alexey Miller and Ding Xuexiang, Vice Premier of the State Council of the People’s Republic of China. It was noted that the overall exports of Russian pipeline gas have already exceeded 100 billion cubic meters since the start of supplies to China.
They reviewed the progress of the project for the Far Eastern route and stated that the gas supplies via the route are scheduled to begin in 2027.
The agreements—covering operational control and technical maintenance —were signed with China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) and PipeChina.
According to Gazprom, the agreements outline cooperation during the launch phase and subsequent operation of the pipeline’s cross-border segment, which will cross the Ussuri River near Dalnerechensk (Russia) and Hulin (China).
This follows the long-term Sales and Purchase Agreement signed in February 2022 between Gazprom and CNPC for gas deliveries via the Far Eastern route. Once fully operational, the project will add 10 billion cubic meters of Russian pipeline gas exports to China annually.
