"Gorky" is a key link in the Russian Federation’s oil transport system and forms part of the structure of JSC "Transneft – Upper Volga".

The pumping station transports oil via trunk pipelines, in particular along the Surgut–Gorky–Polotsk route. It ensures the transfer of raw materials to domestic routes, in particular to the "Lukoil" refinery in Kstovo.

Preliminary reports suggest that strikes by the SSU damaged three oil storage tanks, resulting in a large-scale fire covering an area of 20,000 square metres.
