«Modernisation and expansion
of production capacities in Russian
nitrogen and methanol industries»

Increasing demand for methanol and nitrogen fertilisers in export markets makes Russian producers strive to increase the output. Annual Russian methanol production comprises over 4 million tonnes, while according to the Development Strategy of Russian Chemical and Petrochemical Complexes, expected growth of methanol production equals up to over 8 million tonnes by 2030. The Road Map of Mineral Fertiliser Production in Russia before 2025 anticipates gradual increase of mineral fertiliser output in Russia (from 11.7 million tonnes in 2020 to 12.3 million tonnes in 2025). The total of 20 projects for construction of new and modernisation of existing methanol, ammonia and nitrogen fertiliser facilities were announced for development before 2030. Overall project investment comprises over $25 billion.
