- On 2nd December, 2019, Chinese President Xi Jinping and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putinremotely inaugurated the “Power of Siberia” gas pipeline - a massive cross-border undertaking not only central to China’s energy security but also for bolstering special ties between Beijing and Moscow.

- The gas pipeline traverses three Russian constituent entities, namely the Irkutsk and Amur Regions and the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
- Gas is being sourced from Chayandinskoye and Kovytka fields in eastern Siberia, and is then piped to Blagoveshchensk — the last town on the Russian side of the border. From there, it is tunneled under the Amur River, before entering Heihe on the Chinese side.
Statistics
- Length: around 3,000 kilometers.
- Diameter: 1,420 millimeters.
- Working pressure:9.8 MPa.
- Export capacity: 38 billion cubic meters per year.
Significance
- Power of Siberia contributes to socio-economic development in Russia’s Far East. The gas pipeline facilitates gas supplies to and gas infrastructure expansion in the Russian regions, as well as the advancement of state-of-the-art gas processing and gas chemical facilities.
