Gazprom Facilitates Development of Russian Technologies in Fuel & Energy Sector

The Gazprom Board of Directors commended the Company for encouraging the introduction of Russian technologies into Gazprom Group's industrial activities.

In procuring state-of-the-art and high-technology equipment for the Company's facilities, Gazprom prioritizes Russian producing companies. To that end, Gazprom has actively collaborated with Russian companies for many years, facilitating their technological development.

The Company's technical policy is based on a system of corporate standards that are more stringent than national and international regulations. Gazprom has very strict requirements for the reliability and safety of procured equipment. This encourages national producers to modernize their production processes and improve the competitiveness of their offerings. Gazprom's experience in using equipment under various environmental and climatic conditions helps manufacturers update their products.
