The Forum is scheduled to take place from October 6 to 9, 2026. Continuing its established tradition, the event will serve as a pivotal meeting for the global gas industry.
SPIGF has been functioning as a premier venue to foster innovation and strengthen international partnerships. The project is instrumental in addressing the most critical objectives encountered by the fuel and energy sector, while also promoting technological development and building up international cooperation.
‘The event demonstrates consistent growth and expansion rates. Year after year, the convention agenda continues to broaden, attracting an increasing number of exhibitors ready to present a progressively diverse range of equipment. Furthermore, new formats for interaction are being introduced. The year of 2026 is the Forum’s 15th Anniversary, a significant milestone in its history. In recognition of this, the Forum will incorporate a series of special initiatives designed to further amplify its scale and strategic significance within the sector,’ explained Denis Osadchiy, Head of SPIGF.
In 2025, the Forum achieved its historic highs, recording 35,800 participants from 52 countries and 620 exhibiting companies. The convention agenda encompassed 123 events, and over 900 reports were delivered by experts. The total exhibition area exceeded 51,000 square metres, and 568 mass media representatives from Russia and abroad had the event covered.
In 2026, the participants will be offered an even more packed convention program complemented by a large-scale display of advanced technologies, equipment, and innovative solutions, as well as a comprehensive cultural and networking agenda.
The Forum will once again convene industry leaders along with representatives of the academic and business communities to enable high-level discussions on strategic directions for the future development of the global energy industry.
In accordance with tradition, ExpoForum, one of Russia’s largest and most technologically advanced convention and exhibition centres, has been designated as the central venue for SPIGF 2026.
We look forward to welcoming you to the St. Petersburg International Gas Forum from October 6 to 9, 2026!
