In 2022, Stonepeak purchased a specialized ice-class LNG tanker company, Seapeak, which was found to be serving Yamal LNG, Russia’s largest export terminal and a key to replenishing the dwindling funds of the Russian government, according to a July 2024 investigation by Bloomberg. The investigation stated that several US pension funds are invested in Stonepeak’s Infrastructure Fund IV, and therefore indirectly invested in Seapeak, servicing the Russian LNG market. These funds include: Washington State Investment Board, Oregon Public Employees Retirement Fund, New York State Common Retirement Fund, and California Public Employees’s Retirement System.
