Ust-Luga Multimodal Complex (Russian: Мультимодальный комплекс Усть-Луга, Multimodalnyi kompleks Ust-Luga) is a project aimed at development of the portside area of about 3000 hectares located on the Soikinsky Peninsula by the Gulf of Finland in close proximity to the terminals of Ust-Luga Sea Merchant Port in Kingiseppsky District of Leningrad Oblast, Russia. The project developer is LLC "Multimodal complex Ust-Luga".
The development project of Ust-Luga Multimodal Complex envisages the following infrastructure:
Now[when?] OJSC "NIIP Gradostroitelstva" has completed the elaboration of an area planning scheme for Kingiseppsky district. This scheme determined the functional purpose of the project land. FSUE "RosNIPIUrbanistiki" completed [when?] a Master Plan of the Vistinsky[clarification needed] settlement. The Master Plan includes the location of Ust-Luga Multimodal Complex as well. JSC "Lenaeroproject" made investigations and prepared a positive opinion on the technical possibility of constructing a cargo airport on the grounds of the Ust-Luga Multimodal Complex. The airport will be able to accommodate all types of cargo aircraft. Regulative bodies of the Leningrad region gave their approval to locate the cargo airport.[2]
On 21 January 2024 the Security Service of Ukraine conducted an overnight drone attack on the gas terminal, causing a large fire, which took over a day to extinguish.[3] Gas producer Novatek subsequently suspended all operations at the complex in response to the attack.[4][5][6]
