Novosibirsk Reservoir, Artificial lake in Novosibirsk Oblast and Altai Krai, Russia
The Novosibirsk Reservoir extends 200 kilometers in length and 17 kilometers in width, covering 1,070 square kilometers of water surface.
The construction of the 33-meter concrete dam on the Ob River began in 1956, leading to the formation of this substantial water body in 1959.
The reservoir, referred to as the Ob Sea by local residents, serves as a central location for summer gatherings and outdoor recreational activities.
The water body maintains different operational levels throughout the year: 113.5 meters normal, 115.7 meters maximum, and 108.5 meters minimum.
The Karakan Pine Forest stretches along the eastern shore while the reservoir generates 1,687 gigawatt-hours of energy annually through its hydroelectric station.
