Abstract
The Arctic LNG 2 project operated by Novatek, Russia's largest independent natural gas producer, represents a significant undertaking in the global energy sector [1]. Situated on the Gydan Peninsula in the Arctic region, this ambitious project aims to tap into vast natural gas reserves and establish Russia as a leading exporter of LNG. The terminal is designed to eventually consist of three liquefaction trains, with a total planned annual production capacity of 19.8 million metric tons of LNG. This capacity is crucial for Russia's strategic goal of significantly increasing its share in the global LNG market, targeting a substantial portion of the expanding demand, particularly in Asia.
