俄罗斯是世界上最重要的天然气储藏、生产和出口国家之一。天然气政策是俄罗斯总体能源政策的重要组成部分。在之前几十年的发展过程中，俄罗斯的天然气政策既有自身的延续性，同时，在新的国内国际形势和背景下，又表现出一些新特点和新趋势。2014年在乌克兰危机背景下，美欧对俄的能源制裁以及国际油气价格大幅下跌预期会对俄罗斯的天然气产业发展和出口带来多方面的影响，而俄罗斯面对新的困难和情况预期会采取几方面应对措施，并在未来数年对本国的天然气政策进行一定程度的调整。
Russia is one of the most important countries of natural gas storage，production and export. Natural gas policy is a crucial part of Russia’s overall energy policy，which maintains continuity in the last several decades and shows some new characteristics and new trends in the context of new domestic and international circumstances. It is anticipated that the economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. and the EU on Russia’s energy industry in response to the crisis in Ukraine as well as the sharp drop of international oil and gas prices in 2014 will have serious negative impacts on the development of Russia’s natural gas industry and the export of natural gas. Russia will adjust its natural gas policy in the following years in order to overcome the difficulties and to adapt to the new situation.
