As one of the fastest growing energy companies in the country, Rusneftegaz has significant investments in the exploration and production of petroleum. Our subsidiaries, affiliates and partners are involved in the extraction and processing of hydrocarbons to produce a wide range of petrochemical and oil products, including various grades of liquid and gaseous fuels, lubricants and industrial chemicals.
The creation of the Group has given the necessary impetus to improve and modernise existing production programs, with the aims of improving production volumes and providing additional resources to develop operative oil and gas reserves. Through our subsidiaries and affiliates Rusneftegaz operates 26 oil licenses across both the Timan-Pechora basin in the Komi Republic and the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug in the West Siberian petroleum basin, the two richest oil-producing regions in the Russian Federation.
Total oil production in the last financial year was approximately 4.76 million barrels, equitable to almost $200.0m of oil, creating a strong basis to move forward from in the future. Rusneftegaz currently has no operations internationally, but intends to expand in the future and is currently focusing on the long-term development of all existing energy projects. The Group has committed to invest in the next generation of sustainable technologies, for example, in all production areas there are plans to invest in technology to improve commercial efficiency and raise effectiveness.
Furthermore, Rusneftegaz has begun a research and development project to produce hydrogen, which can be deployed as an alternative fuel, from existing hydrocarbon reformation techniques with the intention of becoming the largest commercial producer in the world within ten years. Whilst current attention is centered upon improvements in battery technology and energy storage, the most effective medium to power large vehicles - including aeroplanes and rockets - involves the reformation of water molecules into a useful fuel. Should the program successfully result in a decline in the production cost of hydrogen, then management projects that the Group could easily become a market leader.
At the end of the last financial year, Rusneftegaz conducted an audit of its hydrocarbon reserves conforming to PRMS international standards. The Company’s total proved and probable hydrocarbon reserves are estimated at 100 million barrels of oil.

Rusneftegaz currently operates 1 860 MW of coal-fired generating capacity across three 600 MW units in the province of Vologda, as well as a 60 MW diesel generator maintained for standby purposes. The plants were constructed in 2004 to serve the local steel industry, and since they were purchased by the Group have been significantly overhauled to meet modern generation standards.
Power generation is now the most lucrative area of Rusneftegaz's business, having become one of the world's leading companies in managing and overhauling thermal power stations by deploying both world-class expertise and innovation. Rusneftegaz has engineered most of the equipment utilized in its plants, significantly reducing costs to maximize the profitability of the plant.
In the longer term, the Group's development strategy is focused on further expansion within the Russian Federation and internationally. Rusneftegaz’s portfolio will be variegated further into more efficient and sustainable technologies, focusing on modern and advanced thermal generation. In 2025, the Group plans to have the capability to manufacture and export power equipment to expedite international expansion.
Furthermore, Rusneftegaz is also continuing to implement its current regeneration program of the Group's installed capacity. Thus far, the steam generators have been reconstructed to increase the quality and rate of superheated steam production, and the turbines modernized, ensuring generation is significantly more efficient.
