Gazprom Transgaz Belarus—previously known as Beltransgaz—is a company specializing in the infrastructure and transportation of natural gas, with its headquarters located in Minsk, Belarus. The firm manages essential transit pipelines crossing Belarus, notably the Northern Lights and the Yamal–Europe pipelines, playing a vital role in the regional energy distribution network. Established in 1992 as a successor to Zapadtransgaz, it became a fully owned subsidiary of the Russian energy corporation Gazprom in 2011. This acquisition allowed Gazprom to reinforce its influence over Belarusian gas transit corridors. By integrating these strategic pipeline assets, Gazprom enhanced its business framework and broadened its reach within the global natural gas sector.
