Remote Arctic airstrip serving the Bovanenkovo gas field.

Location
Bovanenkovo, Russia
Bovanenkovo Airport is a small, remote airfield located on the Yamal Peninsula in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug of Russia. It primarily serves the Bovanenkovo gas condensate field, one of the largest natural gas deposits in the world, operated by Gazprom. The airport supports rotational flights transporting workers and personnel to and from the gas production facilities rather than functioning as a commercial passenger hub. Operations are adapted to the extreme Arctic climate of the region, which presents significant challenges including permafrost, severe cold, and polar weather conditions.
Getting to & from
Ground transport is limited to industrial roads and tracks serving the gas field; the airport is effectively accessible only by air or specialized vehicles due to the remote tundra location.
Airlines here
