The South-Tambeyskoye gas field is a natural gas field located in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. It was discovered in 1974. The field is operated by Yamal LNG, controlled by Novatek. It produces natural gas and condensates.

The field was discovered in 1974 and it began production in 1976. In 1990s–2000s, until 2005, the license belonged to Tambeyneftegaz, controlled by Nikolay Bogachyov. In 2005, the license was reassigned to Yamal LNG. Novatek took control of Yamal LNG in 2009.[1]

Proven and probable resources in the deposit is 907 billion cubic metres (32.0 trillion cubic feet), of which proven reserves are around 481.4 billion cubic metres (17.00 trillion cubic feet). It supplies the Yamal LNG plant.

High-ethane gas will supply the ethane separation and Baltic LNG plant at Ust-Luga, with a planned start in 2026.
