Main information

The company was created in 2003 by the Yamal administration and Russian Railways.

The main activity is the operation of the lines Korotchaevo – Novy Urengoy–Nadym and Korotchaevo–Novy Urengoy–Yamburg.[4][2]

Projects of the Yamal railway company:

  • The completion and restoration of the railway line Obskaya–Salekhard–Nadym;
  • The construction of new railway line midnight – art Ob-2 (the project was suspended in February 2012 in the absence of reliable data on the availability of industrial mineral reserves on the Eastern slope of the Urals);
  • The completion and restoration of the line Korotchaevo–Igarka.[2]

The branch Novy Urengoy–Pangody–Nadym was restored in the 1970s, part of the Transpolar mainline.[5]

Plans

The company develops the Obskaya – Polunochnoye railway construction project along the Eastern slope of the Ural mountains. Investment substantiation for construction of railway track prepares Saint-Petersburg company. Preliminary costs will be not less than 62 billion.

The company also expects to recover the Labytnangi – Nadym Transpolar mainline, which was abandoned in 1953.

Construction of the Obskaya – Polunochnoye railway and full recovery of Transpolar railway required the construction of a bridge across the Ob river. The agreement on construction of the combined rail and road bridge across the Ob was signed in December 2008 by the administration of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug and the Federal Agency of railway transport of Russia.[6]
