Yamalo-Nenets autonomous region – a region located in the Far North. This is a small northern territory of Russia, with a population of only 550 thousand inhabitants. The main attractions of Yamal are its beautiful nature and unusual monuments. For example, in the city of Noyabrsk you can see a monument to a mosquito, erected in 2006.
Another monument is dedicated to the mammoth, which stands at the entrance to the city of Salekhard. After all, it was in this autonomous region that numerous bones and remains of these extinct animals were discovered. One of these finds is 46,000 years old. The search continues to this day, and the last find was discovered in 2007.

Project implementation
The largest Yamal field in terms of proven gas reserves is Bovanenkovskoye. The primary object of development is the Cenomanian-Aptian deposits. In 2012, the first gas production facility (GP-2) was put into operation at the field, in 2014 - the second (GP-1), in 2018 - the third (GP-3). The total design capacity of the three fields is 115 billion cubic meters. m of gas per year. In the future, with the commissioning of Neocomian-Jurassic deposits, the design productivity of the Bovanenkovskoye field will increase to 140 billion cubic meters. m of gas per year.
In 2012, the Bovanenkovo - Ukhta gas pipeline was put into operation, and at the beginning of 2017, the Bovanenkovo - Ukhta 2 gas pipeline was put into operation.
In 2016, the Novoportovskoye oil field and the Arctic Gate offshore oil terminal were put into commercial operation.

Advanced technical solutions
Overcoming the difficult natural and climatic conditions of Yamal, Gazprom made the peninsula a springboard for the use of highly efficient, safe, innovative technologies and technical solutions.
The Yamal megaproject has no analogues in terms of complexity. Hydrocarbons are concentrated in a remote area with extremely harsh climatic conditions. The peninsula is characterized by the presence of permafrost, a long winter period and low temperatures (down to −50 °C). In summer, 80% of Yamal's territory is covered with lakes, swamps and rivers, which significantly limits the areas where industrial facilities can be reliably located. Gazprom used highly efficient, safe, innovative technologies And technical solutions. Many of them, commissioned by the company, were developed specifically for Yamal by leading Russian scientific institutes and domestic enterprises.
Extraction technologies
For the first time in Russia, the Bovanenkovskoye field uses a unified production infrastructure for gas production from Cenomanian (depth 520-700 m) and Aptian-Albian (depth 1200-2000 m) deposits. This approach provides significant savings on development costs, reduces construction time and increases the efficiency of field operation.
Field development began with lower gas deposits having higher reservoir pressure. As the pressure equalizes, deposits located higher up are brought into development. The low-pressure Cenomanian reservoir is the last to be developed to compensate for the natural decline in gas production from the Aptian deposits. Accordingly, separate groups of production wells are created for different deposits, which are gradually connected to a single gas collection network.
Difficult landscape conditions predetermined the need to update the regulatory framework for designing well construction. New standards made it possible to bring the wellheads of wells in a cluster closer together from 40 m to 15-20 m, to minimize the allotment area and the volume of engineering preparation of areas for well clusters, access roads and other communications, while ensuring the necessary level of industrial safety.
At the fields of the Bovanenkovskoye field, high level automation technological processes using low-volume technologies. In particular, for the first time in Gazprom, automated well piping modules (MOS-2) were put into operation, designed to monitor and control Christmas trees and ensure reliable operation of wells in conditions of hydrate formation.
Preparation of extracted gas for transportation is carried out by the most modern and environmentally friendly method of low-temperature separation using domestic turboexpanders.
Transportation technologies
Yamal gas is transported to the Unified Gas Supply System of Russia via new generation gas pipelines under a pressure of 11.8 MPa (120 atm.). It was possible to achieve a record pressure for onshore gas pipelines primarily through the use of domestic pipes with a diameter of 1420 mm, made of K65 (X80) steel with an internal smooth coating, developed at the request of Gazprom.
The most technically difficult section in the construction of the gas transportation system was the underwater crossing through Baydaratskaya Bay. It is distinguished by special natural and climatic conditions: at shallow depths it is characterized by frequent stormy weather, complex bottom sediments and freezing to the bottom in winter period. Here, concrete-clad pipes with a diameter of 1219 mm and designed for a pressure of 11.8 MPa were used. Laying a gas pipeline in such difficult natural conditions and with such technical parameters was the first such construction experience not only in Russia, but also in world practice.
The Arctic Gate offshore oil terminal, located in the Gulf of Ob, is also a unique structure. The terminal is designed to operate in extreme conditions: temperatures in the region drop even below −50 °C, and ice thickness can exceed two meters. It has a two-level protection system and meets the most stringent requirements in the field of industrial safety and environmental protection. The terminal equipment is fully automated and reliably protected from water hammer. A special system allows you to instantly undocking the terminal and the tanker, while maintaining the tightness of the disconnected elements. The “zero discharge” technology eliminates the entry of any foreign substances into the waters of the Gulf of Ob, which is extremely important for preserving the ecology of the Arctic. In addition, the subsea pipeline connecting the terminal to the offshore tank farm is protected by an additional concrete shell.
Technologies in creating infrastructure
Reliable all-weather communication between the Yamal Peninsula and the mainland and year-round cargo and passenger transportation is ensured by the Obskaya - Bovanenkovo - Karskaya railway (572 km), specially built by Gazprom. There are no analogues to this railway in the world, taking into account the climatic conditions in which it has to operate.
To preserve the bearing capacity of permafrost, the construction of main facilities was carried out only at subzero temperatures. The railway embankment was built from damp, dusty sand, which, under the influence of low temperatures, acquires the necessary strength. To ensure the stability of the subgrade structure in the summer months, a unique layer-by-layer thermal insulation system was developed and applied (expanded polystyrene was laid on top of the frozen sand, and geotextile cages were constructed).
The bridge crossing over the floodplain of the Yuribey River became the most difficult section of the railway. It has no analogues in bridge construction practice both in terms of design features and climatic and geocryological conditions of construction and operation, and is the longest bridge in the world beyond the Arctic Circle (length 3.9 km).
It was possible to build the bridge on soil that is practically unsuitable for construction - it is permafrost interspersed with cryopegs (salt-dust solutions located in the thickness of permafrost and do not freeze even at negative temperatures from −10 to −30 ° C). The spans and trusses of the bridge are mounted on supports made of metal pipes with a diameter of 1.2 to 2.4 meters, filled with reinforced concrete. The supports go into the permafrost to a depth of 20 to 40 meters. Thanks to modern technologies and special freezing (thermal stabilization), the supports are literally frozen with ice (permafrost), which provides the bridge with additional stability.
Caring for nature
When constructing facilities, Gazprom primarily cares about preserving the unique Yamal nature. The minimum possible area is allocated for technological facilities, and vapor-liquid thermal stabilizers and thermally insulated pipes for wells significantly reduce the impact on permafrost. Closed water supply systems eliminate pollution of water bodies and soil. Constant environmental monitoring is carried out.
During the construction of gas wells, a technological scheme was implemented for processing drilling waste using the curing method to obtain building material. The technology is based on a method of encapsulating drill cuttings in a specialized mixing plant. Encapsulated construction material is used in the development of facilities at the Bovanenkovskoye field, namely for filling well pads, forming and maintaining embankments of road slopes.
The Yamal fields are located in the original territory of residence of nomadic reindeer herders, so Gazprom conducts production activities taking into account the interests of the inhabitants of the tundra. The company pays great attention to organizing and conducting events that promote socio-economic development and preservation of the traditional culture of indigenous peoples of the North. In particular, the parking areas for reindeer herding teams and reindeer herding routes have been identified, where special crossings for reindeer through utility lines have been constructed.
A program is being implemented to increase the population of northern commercial fish.
Chairman of the Management Board of PJSC Gazprom Alexey Miller: “No country in the world has created anything like this in the Arctic latitudes. This is an unprecedented project in the history of the global gas industry. By creating a fundamentally new gas production center
So, the Yamal Peninsula, an endless snowy desert, a border zone,
the largest gas production region... and the incredible beauty of the North.
Read on for the full description...
Many people go to these regions for the very fact - we were in Salekhard. And they call it beautifully an expedition.
What is true is that there are no roads in the generally accepted sense here.
In winter there are winter roads. They are made directly along river beds, along the tributaries of the Ob, in the taiga.
Dozens of ice crossings, villages where access in summer is only by water, remote places...
But now I want to talk specifically about the Yamal Peninsula.
The road, or rather the winter road, goes to it from Labytnangi, from the Obskaya station.
So it goes all 550 km along the Obskaya-Bovanenkovo railway line - the northernmost railway in the world. 
At first, there is still forest-tundra around, there are still rare larches.
The spurs of the Polar Urals are visible in the distance. 
But soon there are fewer and fewer trees, and the last bush disappears.
Seven days of tundra await us ahead. 
For the first couple of hundred kilometers the road is paved, we drive for fun and take pictures. 
The road is alive.
Dozens of heavy trucks are heading to Bovanenkovo, Gazprom’s main prospect for today. 
Since 1986, they have been building in Bovanenkovo railway.
It is a difficult and challenging task to build it in permafrost conditions.
But the trains are running. 
But they don’t go all the way to Bovanenkovo yet, so that Gazprom’s official press releases don’t say so.
The road is not completed for almost 30 km.
The labor of ordinary drivers is still in demand.
This is how we move with our fellow travelers in the tundra. 
Just a year ago this winter road was serviced. He was needed.
Now almost all cargo goes by rail.
And the winter road was abandoned. 
As soon as the filling ends, just tundra begins.
Just a track, hundreds of kilometers of track in the tundra. 
A slightly slight slope and there is a chance to turn over a 20-ton long vehicle. 
Someone else can be pulled out, they do it.
The rope can only be pulled by two people. 
We are guests here.
Many cars stop and are curious. They say Bovanenkovo, Kharasavey? We won't get there.
Take photos for memory. There are no passenger vehicles here.
But we move on. 
Here citizens asked whether there were studs on truck wheels, why they didn’t drive with chains, etc.
Friends, these are the harsh everyday life of Yamal. Here people live in inhumane conditions for months.
These are not the Alps and not the winter roads where you saw puzoterki.
The technology here is appropriate. Only four-wheel drive Urals with all locks and KAMAZ trucks on wheels one and a half meters high and with automatic inflation.
There is nothing else, then only all-terrain vehicles.
I'm not sure that many people have ever seen such cars.
The winter road is trampled right in the tundra, on virgin soil. Try driving like this for at least a kilometer. What about 100 km or 500? Where will you get diesel fuel, heat, food?
Here the word spike or chain sounds at least funny. No hacking, everything is clear and measured. You can't sit here. Drive slowly, but drive.
And it’s good if the average speed is at least 10 km/h. 
Those who are not prepared or cannot move end up like this. 
There is no need for frivolity here. Everything is simple and concrete. 
We are struggling to get through. We make a lot of mistakes.
We watch how the Urals drive, we learn. The technique of driving on the tundra is radically different from the way we are used to driving.
And as experience later showed, wherever the Urals pass, we will pass there too. It's difficult, but we'll get through it. 
And there is tundra all around. And an extraordinary sky.
It's difficult to convey this with a photograph. 
It gets dark quickly.
To spend the night we are looking for a higher place so that it doesn’t get snowy at night.
We haven't turned off the engines for many days.
The car is our home, we sleep, cook food... everything is inside. It’s a gift that it’s still warm outside, -32 in total. 
The morning greets us with good weather.
There are deer around. Apparently they strayed from the herd. 
A rut again. 
The railway again. 
We still have a long way to go.
Ahead are numerous arctic foxes, partridges, foxes, deer, Nenets... Well, and the seashore. Kara Sea.
Sea vessels and shift camps of the North frozen in ice. 
The Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug is located in the north Western Siberia in the lower reaches of the Ob River. In the north it is washed by the Kara Sea. The Yamal Peninsula is clearly visible on the map of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug; its eastern coast is washed by one of the largest bays in the Arctic - the Gulf of Ob, with a length of about 800 km. Half of the district's territory is located beyond the Arctic Circle, which means that there are polar days and polar nights.
The area of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug is 769,250 sq. km, occupied mainly by plains and dug by the beds of such rivers as the Ob, Pur, Nadym and Taz.
The development of the northern lands began in the 60s of the last century, and thanks to rich natural resources, the region quickly grew and developed. Oil and natural gas are extracted here and transported to other regions of the country. To this day, these places attract people with high salaries, harsh winter romance and beauty. The indigenous population is the Nenets (Samoyeds), and many tribes continue to live the same way as many years ago. They lead a nomadic lifestyle, engage in reindeer herding, hunting and fishing.
Salekhard (Nenets “city on a cape”) is the administrative center of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. This is not the most Big City region. In terms of population, it is inferior to the cities of Novy Urengoy and Noyabrsk.
The climate of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug is harsh. Winter lasts 8 months with snowstorms, fogs, and temperatures can drop to -60 C. Summer is unusually warm, but short-lived. Here magnetic storms cause one of the most beautiful natural phenomena- northern lights.
Despite the cold weather, the region is visited by many tourists. They strive to visit the northernmost reserve of Russia - Gydansky - which has preserved the culture of the local population, go on an ethnographic tour or go skiing. Water sports enthusiasts go down wild mountain rivers, try their hand at fishing and enjoy the rugged northern beauty.
