Russia’s Gazprom is set to begin operations of a new gas export pipeline to Kazakhstan in early 2030, according to the Kazakh ambassador to Russia. The project aims to enhance energy connectivity between the two countries.
The pipeline is part of broader efforts to expand regional energy infrastructure and increase gas exports from Russia to Central Asia. Details on the pipeline’s capacity and route have not yet been disclosed.
**Why this matters**
The pipeline could strengthen economic ties between Russia and Kazakhstan by facilitating energy trade. It may also contribute to regional energy security and support Kazakhstan’s growing demand for natural gas.
