Russia Unveils Plans for First Domestically-Built LNG Carrier to Overcome Sanctions

Blocked from accessing western tech, Russia’s United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC) aims to construct the country’s first ice-class gas carrier. The company presented plans for the LNG carrier at the St. Petersburg International Gas Forum. Developed for Gazprom’s Baltic Ust-Luga facility, the design could easily be adapted for the needs of other Russian gas companies.
