Igor Anatolyevich Orlov (Russian: Игорь Анатольевич Орлов; born 17 August 1964) is a Russian politician and engineer who served as the governor of Arkhangelsk Oblast from 2012 to 2020. He resigned amid the 2018–2020 Shies protests, which opposed the construction of a landfill in the region.

Since June 2020, Orlov has been serving as the General Director of PJSC Severnaya Verf Shipyard.

Orlov was also a member of the Presidium of the Regional Political Council of the Arkhangelsk branch of the United Russia party.
