The moment of drone impact in Ust-Luga, Russia. It appears that the cryogenic gas fractionation unit was struck. This unit is vital for operating LNG ports.

And how many air defense units does Putin have around his dacha on the lake? I hear 12.

Good! Hopefully it forces Belgium to source its LNG from elsewhere.

The gas used in Belgium is already sourced elsewhere, and been since about 2014. However, Zeebrugge is a large terminal that converts LNG to gaseous state and then re-exports. So, other than lost revenue for that company, effects on Belgium will be small.

Fact: Natural Gas is extremely prone to exploding under very intense pressures. You need cryogenics to freeze it so it can be coaxed into a liquid form into the containers safely.

The fact that Russia still exists as a country and not a US possession is solid evidence that a US security guarantee is worthless (Ukraine 1994).

Already 2 columns of smoke, and the explosion does not seem to be related to other fires, so yes looks like a third hit.

Sure, but LNG used in Belgium comes from Qatar, so will not impact the usage in Belgium. That is unless it results in a global price increases.

This damage can very easily run into 3 figure millions or billions. Ust-Luga cost around 12 billion to build ( ex Russian overhead costs->corruption), and this is the most complex and expensive part. And this is besides lost revenue and potential impossibility to repair due to sanctions.

Plenty of things have been repaired following refinery strikes so far. Russians have adequate capabilities to patch up damaged steel pressure vessels, and they'll be able to find replacements for field devices such as valves, fittings too. Compressors might be more difficult

aug 24, 2025, 4:25 pm • 1 0 • view
Claiming that Russia can simply fix up damaged refineries ignores reality. You don’t run a refinery with duct tape, scrap metal. Without imported compressors, certified alloys and modern control systems, those ‘repairs’ are nothing more than dangerous patchwork that drags efficiency into the ground.

A refinery is also a little more complex than a few pipes and valves. There is an immense amount of control equipment to measure all processes. Refineries are finely tuned to be able to process the specific oil they receive to run optimal. This equipment is mostly western.

I work in petrochemicals myself and actually most of the plants is pipes and valves and big steel vessels. Any kind of field devices can be bought from China, even top of the line gamma ray level measurements or what have you. The control rooms are where the most delicate and difficult to replace /
