Gazprom owns the largest gas transmission system in the world. An unparalleled technological complex, the system includes transportation facilities and storage facilities (gas keepers), as well as ensuring a continuous natural gas supply from wells to end consumers.
The total length of Gazprom’s gas pipelines in Russia is 170 700 km. The gas transmission network includes 250 compressor stations with 3825 gas compressor units (GCU).
Gazprom has published a photo essay that covers the construction of GCUs, which represent the core of the gas transmission system and enable natural gas transmission via gas trunklines.Read more about it here.
