    The team of the Scientific and Educational Center “Digital Engineering of the Main Equipment of Chemical-Engineering Systems” of the Advanced Engineering School of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University “Digital Engineering” successfully completed the development and received a patent for an ignition device for reactors of oil and gas processing plants.

    Patent for invention RU 2842893 C1 was registered by the Federal Service for Intellectual Property on July 3, 2025.

    Leading industry research centers and strategic industrial partners of SPbPU have shown significant interest in the development. The partners of the invention were JSC TsKBM (part of the State Corporation Rosatom), LLC NTC Gazconsulting, and the Federal Research Center of Chemical Physics named after N. N. Semenov of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

    Among the ultimate stakeholders in the innovative device is JSC Research Institute of Scientific Production Association LUCH (part of the State Corporation Rosatom).

    Developers of ignition devices for reactors of oil and gas processing plants:

    A critical production problem is to ensure reliable ignition of burner devices of complex process equipment, for example, an autothermal reforming reactor, during its start-up. Unsuccessful ignition can lead to the formation of explosive concentrations of a flammable mixture in subsequent elements of the process chain. This, in turn, can provoke uncontrolled exothermic reactions and, as a consequence, emergency situations with potential damage to equipment and personnel. The developed product provides a radical solution to the problem, guaranteeing stable and reliable ignition, – said the responsible executor of the development, an expert of the Scientific and Educational Center “Digital Engineering of the Main Equipment of Chemical-Engineering Systems” of the St. Petersburg Polytechnical School Yuri Aristovich.

    The ignition device is a structurally and functionally unified device – a complex technical system in which all components are interconnected and jointly implement the function of igniting the combustible mixture. The device contains a housing, an oxidizer supply pipe and a combustible gas supply pipe, a spark plug, valves of the oxidizer supply pipe and the combustible gas supply pipe, an outlet pipe. The housing contains a cylindrical mixing chamber, the inputs of the oxidizer supply pipe and the combustible gas supply pipe are located in the part of the mixing chamber that is most distant from the outlet pipe.

    The oxidizer feed pipe is connected to the housing so as to feed the oxidizer in the tangential direction, and the combustible gas feed pipe is connected so as to feed the combustible gas in the radial direction. The inlet openings of the pipes in the housing are made so as to ensure critical gas outflow. The dimensions of the inlet openings are reasonably selected so that when the back pressure changes, the flow rates of the combustible gas and oxidizer change proportionally, the diameter of the outlet pipe is from 10 to 50% of the diameter of the mixing chamber. The technical result is an increase in the reliability of the device.

    The ignition device is designed to operate in a short-pulse mode. This ensures reliable ignition at low thermal loads in a wide range of pressures (from 1 to several tens of atmospheres). The device forms and directs small volumes of flame – fire ellipses of a certain size and at a given speed. Ignition charges ensure reliable ignition of the main burner, minimizing the thermal load on the outflow zone and the ignition device body, which significantly simplifies the reactor design and its startup procedure.

    The task of developing an igniter within the established deadlines seemed extremely difficult. Initially, it was assumed that the system would be implemented with a developed cooling infrastructure and multi-component thermal protection, which is due to the extremely high operating temperatures that significantly exceed the parameters of standard devices. The specifics of the reactor excluded the possibility of using serial solutions. Alternative options were considered, including the use of pyrotechnic cartridges, but this approach was recognized as suboptimal in terms of manufacturability and operational safety. As a result, an original, reliable and safe igniter was created that meets all the requirements. The developed device demonstrates high potential for use not only within the framework of this project, but also in other industries that require reliable systems for initiating processes in high temperatures and aggressive environments, added Nikolay Vasiliev, Chief Designer for Remotely Controlled and Transport and Technological Equipment at JSC TsKBM.

    Chief designer for the key scientific and technological development area of SPbPU “Systemic Digital Engineering”, director of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” Alexey Borovkov spoke about the key success factor: “At the beginning of the work, none of the authors of the development could foresee the final result of creating a science-intensive and high-tech product. By combining the knowledge, experience and competencies of scientists, engineers and designers from various fields of knowledge and industries, we managed to form a unique multidisciplinary team and obtain impressive results. Of course, this is a logical result of the application of systemic digital engineering technologies, including the technology of developing digital twins, mathematical and computer modeling of non-stationary nonlinear physical-mechanical and physical-chemical processes of the behavior of a high-tech product.

    The development of a complex technical system is based on the effective application of the created multidisciplinary digital model [ 1, 2, 3 ], which is a system of interconnected mathematical and computer models describing combustion kinetics, chemical thermodynamics of free-radical reactions, dynamics of vortex flows at supercritical parameters of substances and non-stationary nonlinear thermomechanics. Numerous digital (virtual) tests and the necessary full-scale tests made it possible to carry out verification [ 1, 2 ] and validation [1, 2] developed models, to raise the level adequacy of models and descriptions of complex processes confirmed the efficiency and reliability of the developed high-tech product.

    With the help of approaches, technologies and methods of system digital engineering, the formed innovative scientific and technical groundwork and on the basis of the digital platform for the development and application of digital twins CML-Bench® [ 1, 2 ] our team implemented all stages of creating a finished industrial product in record time: development and design took only 2 months, manufacturing and testing – 3 months. It is fundamentally important to note that traditional approaches are not capable of ensuring such a high speed of implementation of science-intensive and high-tech projects for the development of complex technical systems.”

    In conclusion, we note that the results of the development of the ignition device have made a significant contribution to the formation of a scientific and technological reserve for the creation digital (virtual) testing ground for burner devices. The development of a digital test site is one of the most important final goals of a large-scale project to develop new generation burner devices for pyrolysis furnaces, implemented within the framework of the key scientific and technological direction (KNTD-1) of the development of SPbPU “Systemic Digital Engineering” within the framework of the “Priority-2030” program.

    The project within the framework of KNTN-1 provides for the definition of approaches to mathematical and computer modeling of new burner devices, development matrices requirements, target indicators and resource constraints, creation of a series of computer models of the prototype (primary, refined, detailed, optimized), conducting full-scale tests of a pilot industrial model of a burner device for validations computer model, development of design documentation and implementation into production.

    Let us recall that in June 2025, specialists from the Scientific and Educational Center “Digital Engineering of the Main Equipment of Chemical-Engineering Systems” of the SPbPU PISh presented This project and the Center’s expertise in developing burner devices at the Gazprom Neft site, one of the leaders in the oil and gas industry and petrochemical industry in Russia.

    Methodological support and the process of registering the right to the intellectual property object of the igniter were provided by Center for Transfer and Import Substitution of Advanced Digital and Manufacturing Technologies SPbPU.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Rosneft Contributes to Study of Russia’s Wild Reindeer

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Rosneft – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    On August 2, Russia celebrates Reindeer Day, a holiday dedicated to reindeer and reindeer herding. Rosneft makes a significant contribution to the study and conservation of the population of these animals in the Russian Federation.

    Wild reindeer are a vital link in Arctic ecosystems. Since 2014, the company has been studying the reindeer population in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, in the territories of Evenkia and the Taimyr Peninsula. Large-scale ground and aerial surveys of the animals are conducted annually. Using satellite tags installed on the reindeer, scientists have tracked the annual migration cycle for the first time, and also identified seasonal behavior patterns.

    In 2025, as part of the Tamura corporate environmental program, a new research expedition to study wild reindeer was launched in Western Taimyr. Field work is being conducted by scientists from the Siberian Federal University (SFU). The first group of specialists will travel along the Khatanga River and the upper section of the Kheta River. The total length of the boat routes will be more than 700 km. The second part of the scientific expedition started from Norilsk. Scientists plan to travel by boat along the Pyasina, Dudypta, Tareya, and Pura rivers. Based on the results of the work, the number of reindeer in Western Taimyr and their migration routes will be determined.

    In 2024, as part of the Tamura program, scientists from SFU and Taimyr reserves also conducted a comprehensive census of the number and migration of animals to update data on the state of the Taimyr-Evenki population.

    For many years, the East Siberian Oil and Gas Company (ESOG, part of Rosneft) together with SFU have been implementing the Evenki Deer project. Scientists track the movements, numbers, and habitat characteristics of wild deer in the region. For people living in the taiga and tundra, deer are an important part of their everyday life and culture.

    VSNK also supports research into musk deer, a small deer-like animal rare for Evenkia that lives in Siberia and the Far East. Their secretive lifestyle and size (up to 70 cm at the withers) make them almost invisible. These even-toed ungulates are listed in the Red Book of several regions of Russia and the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature as a vulnerable species. Scientists have conducted work to find musk deer habitats in Evenkia. During the research, their presence was confirmed in an area that was previously considered unsuitable for this rare deer species, and the population size was estimated – it currently stands at 300 individuals.

    As part of the forest reindeer research with the support of RN-Uvatneftegaz (part of the Company’s oil production complex), scientists from the Tobolsk Scientific Station of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences carried out large-scale work in the Kunyaksky Reserve. Based on the results of aerial monitoring, which covered almost 60 thousand hectares, over 100 thousand images were obtained to clarify the reindeer population. The environmental program of RN-Uvatneftegaz is of great practical importance for the Tyumen Region – forest reindeer research has not been conducted in the region for more than 20 years.

    Thanks to the grant support of RN-Vankor (part of the oil production complex of NK Rosneft), SFU scientists have created a teaching aid, Wild Reindeer of Taimyr. The project is aimed at developing scientifically based strategies for the rational use and conservation of a key species-bioindicator of Arctic ecosystems. The aid systematizes extensive data obtained as a result of field and office studies.

    Reference:

    Rosneft pays special attention to environmental issues and biodiversity conservation, implementing the largest comprehensive Arctic region study program since Soviet times. The new Tamura research program, which started in 2024, is designed to update information on the state of key animal species living in the north of Krasnoyarsk Krai. The Tamura program includes studying the Kara subpopulation of polar bears, wild reindeer populations, valuable bird and fish species in the Yenisei estuary. Three expeditions to study the Kara subpopulation of polar bears have already taken place in 2025. In total, ten expeditions will be held in four years.

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    At the initiative of the student community, the Polytechnic University traditionally held the “Best Teacher through the Eyes of Students” competition from June 5 to July 12.

    The competition has been held at the university since 2021 and this year it celebrated a small anniversary – five years. As usual, students nominate teachers for participation in the competition who, from their point of view, best meet such approved criteria as “Personal interest in the subject”, “Openness to everything new”, “Pedagogical excellence”, “Culture of interaction with students”, “Commitment to the traditions of the Polytechnic University”, etc. However, this year, only graduating students who received their diplomas this year could vote for teachers. For each of the nine criteria of the competitive selection, the students had to nominate only one teacher.

    “Our university is changing, and the rules for the “Best Teacher in the Eyes of Students” competition are changing along with it,” explained SPbPU Vice-Rector for Educational Activities Lyudmila Pankova. “In this anniversary year for the competition, it was important for us to find out which teachers remain in the hearts of graduates leaving the university on their way to a new, big life.”

    Perhaps the most important change in the rules of the competition was that student voting was transferred to the Telegram bot “Digital Pelican” of the Trade Union of Students of SPbPU.

    “We think it is important that our students have taken responsibility not only for developing the evaluation criteria for the competition, but also for its implementation,” noted Elena Zima, Director of the Education Quality Center. “This significant step in improving the competition procedure will increase the university students’ confidence in the competition results and their involvement, which will undoubtedly contribute to improving the overall culture of education quality at the Polytechnic.”

    494 Polytechnic graduates took part in the voting. The winners and prize winners were 10 teachers from seven institutes: GI, IBSiB, IKNK, IPMEiT, IFiM, IFKSiT, IE. All of them will receive cash prizes. The results of the competition are also taken into account in the rating of the faculty. The award ceremony for teachers will traditionally take place on Knowledge Day, September 1.

    The winners of the competition in the nomination “Best of the Best” were:

    Anton Pavlovich Shaban (IPMEiT); Sergey Aleksandrovich Vazhnov (IE); Elmira Alyarovna Nazarova (IPMEiT).

    Full list of winners and prize winners of the competition posted on the website of the Center for Education Quality.

    Congratulations to the winners! We wish you creative success, new discoveries and new victories!

    Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin made a working visit to the Donetsk People’s Republic. In Mariupol, he inspected the Portovik stadium, a new residential complex and a renovated courthouse, and held a meeting on the socio-economic development of the region.

    “The judicial system, especially for the development of the reunited regions, is of utmost importance. Therefore, on the instructions of the President, we have made a separate program together with the Supreme Court. And so, step by step, we are repairing and putting in order all such facilities, in order to create conditions for the integration of Donbass and Novorossiya into the legal field of the country, including with the help of infrastructure,” said Marat Khusnullin.

    The stadium reconstruction is almost complete: the football fields, running tracks, sports grounds and tennis court have been updated, and the martial arts, volleyball and basketball halls have been renovated.

    The new residential complex, which was built under the supervision of specialists from the Unified Customer in Construction, has 182 apartments with interior decoration, installed plumbing and kitchen furniture. Residents will begin receiving keys to them in the near future.

    During a meeting on issues of socio-economic development of the region, the Deputy Prime Minister heard the construction, financial, industrial, and agricultural blocks.

    “I can note that the region has good volumes of housing construction, and we are approving a full-fledged program for roads until 2030. Tax revenues to the regional budget are also at a good level. We will use these funds for additional needs of the region. We also discussed the implementation of the program for capital repairs of houses and restoration of public infrastructure, which is also being carried out under the control of the Territorial Development Fund. We separately discussed the extensive work to stabilize the water supply of the republic,” the Deputy Prime Minister added.

    At the end of his working visit, Marat Khusnullin, together with the management of the PPC “Territorial Development Fund”, checked the progress of work at one of the most important water supply facilities under construction for the DPR.

    “The 17-kilometer water pipeline for transferring water from the Pavlopil reservoir, together with the second such facility – for transferring from Uglegorsk – should lead to the replenishment of almost 40% of the resource. I have instructed to reduce the launch time of the facility, to speed up the delivery of equipment. The issue of water shortage in the DPR is acute, a comprehensive approach is needed to solve this problem,” said Marat Khusnullin.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The procedure for obtaining licenses and permits has been optimized for businesses

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a federal law that enshrines the reduction of the terms for issuing licenses and permits, as well as a reduction in the number of documents required to obtain them. The corresponding amendments to 69 federal laws were prepared by the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia on the instructions of Deputy Chairman and Chief of Staff of the Government Dmitry Grigorenko.

    The signed federal law is the result of four years of work to reduce the time it takes to issue licenses, permits and the number of required documents, to transfer permits to electronic form and to make other simplifications for businesses and citizens. At the same time, the optimization of those government services that have shown positive results and for which it has been possible to obtain confirmation in practice that permits can be issued in a shorter time frame and with a smaller package of documents for the applicant is being consolidated.

    The optimization affected a number of key economic areas that are most in demand by businesses and citizens. These include, in particular, permitting regimes in the areas of transport, construction, nature management and environmental protection, industrial safety, education, communications, tourism, accreditation of legal entities, and many others.

    The law also permanently establishes a number of tools that have made it possible to optimize the process of obtaining licenses and permits and which will now be constantly applied in practice. For example, a comprehensive application. With its help, you can apply for several permits at once by submitting one application on the Unified State Services Portal. By the end of 2025, it is planned to implement about 20 comprehensive applications on the portal.

    In addition, the mechanisms of interdepartmental information exchange are enshrined in law, when at the stage of preparing applications to the permitting agency on the Unified Public Services portal the necessary information is automatically pulled up. And also the proactive mode of operation of the Unified Public Services portal: the portal systems will remind businesses and citizens about the need to extend permits and automatically send a pre-filled application for their registration.

    The process of optimizing the issuance of licenses and permits has allowed us to reduce the number of requested documents and the time required to obtain permits by half on average. In the future, it is planned to adopt more than 250 by-laws to implement the provisions set forth in the federal law.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Russia Presents Report on Application of Space Technologies to Monitor Greenhouse Gases at APEC

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    The Department of Multilateral Economic Cooperation and Special Projects of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation has prepared a report entitled “Monitoring Greenhouse Gas Emissions in APEC: Space Solutions.” The document is posted on the official website the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum. The report reflects the key findings and recommendations of the international expert roundtable, which took place on March 14, 2025 under the auspices of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia.

    The report is a systematic review of the practices of using satellite technologies in climate monitoring with an emphasis on the potential for their scaling in the Asia-Pacific region. The document collects key recommendations from international organizations. In particular, the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs, the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP), as well as the public sector, academic and business communities of APEC member economies, including Russia, Indonesia and Thailand.

    “Satellite technologies are becoming an integral element of climate architecture. Their use ensures the objectivity, efficiency and reproducibility of climate data, especially in conditions where traditional ground infrastructure is limited or unavailable. Russia is consistently developing a climate monitoring system that combines satellite, air and ground tracking methods with advanced computational models. Dialogue at the APEC platform allows us not only to develop high-quality international expertise, but also to strengthen trust between the economies of the region,” commented Evgeniya Drozhashchikh, Deputy Director of the Department of Multilateral Economic Cooperation and Special Projects of the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia.

    The materials of the round table present advanced solutions in the field of remote sensing of the Earth, methods of their integration into national greenhouse gas emission inventory systems, approaches to the unification of methodologies, as well as legal and technological aspects of climate data exchange.

    Given that APEC economies account for more than 60% of global CO2 emissions, the issue of creating a transparent and scientifically based monitoring system is becoming fundamental to achieving international climate goals. Satellite data allows not only to map emission hot spots, but also to track their dynamics in the long term.

    The prepared report will serve as a basis for further work by APEC economies to develop technological cooperation and introduce space solutions into national climate management systems.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The number of applications for registration of regional brands has increased by almost 20%

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Ministry of Economic Development (Russia) – Ministry of Economic Development (Russia) –

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    In the first half of the year, the Federal Service for Intellectual Property (Rospatent) received 49 applications for registration of new and granting exclusive rights to already registered regional brands. This is almost 20% more than for the same period in 2024. Most applications were filed for food and agricultural products, as well as folk art and crafts.

    “Each region has its own unique culture and geographical specificity, and these features should be actively used to form its favorable image. The creation of regional brands based on geographical indications and names of places of origin of goods is not only a key tool for increasing the recognition of the region, its economic growth and social progress, but also a chance for local authorities and entrepreneurs to introduce a wide audience to traditional crafts and products made in the region,” said First Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Maxim Kolesnikov. He also added that such brands should contribute to the development of local production and support of local manufacturers.

    “Regional brands belong to the region where they are produced, so the same product under one brand can be produced by several different enterprises or companies. The main conditions here are the compliance of production with the necessary requirements and the registration of the enterprise in this region. This gives regions the opportunity for economic development. As a result, manufacturers enter the market with more confidence, maintain traditional production methods and expand them, and new jobs are created in the region,” said Rospatent Director Yuri Zubov.

    In the first six months of 2025, Rospatent received 49 applications for registration and granting the right to use regional brands, including one from abroad. Moreover, 32 applications relate to geographical indication (GI), and 17 to the name of the place of origin of goods (NMOG).

    If the production is entirely located in the region and the product has special properties, then it is a name of the place of origin of the product. If it is associated with a certain region or place by reputation, and part of the production is located outside the region, then it is a geographical indication.

    In 2025, the largest number of applications were received for goods in the category “Food and agricultural products” – 19. In the category “Folk arts and crafts” – 12 applications, “Mineral water” – nine, “Alcoholic products” – three, “Other goods” – five.

    Among the regions, Stavropol Krai has filed the most applications this year — seven. It has also been the leader in application activity over the past five years: since 2020, residents of Stavropol Krai have filed 73 applications for registration and/or granting an exclusive right to a state or national trademark.

    In the first six months of 2025, 14 new regional brands were registered with Rospatent, such as “Pleshkovskaya Igrushka” (Oryol Oblast), “Bashkirsky Palas” (Republic of Bashkortostan), “Decorative Stone Simbircite” (Ulyanovsk Oblast), and “Pechora Printed Gingerbread” (Pskov Oblast).

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Magadan Region will present a project on the contribution of Kolyma to the Victory in the Great Patriotic War at the Far East Street within the framework of the EEF

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Government of the Russian Federation – Government of the Russian Federation –

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    At the exhibition “Far East Street”, which will be held in Vladivostok from September 3 to 9 as part of the anniversary, tenth Eastern Economic Forum, Magadan Region will present its opportunities for the development of tourism and recreation – both already implemented and promising projects. The organizer of the exhibition is the Roscongress Foundation with the support of the office of the Plenipotentiary Representative of the President of Russia in the Far Eastern Federal District.

    “The Magadan region shows stable positive dynamics. The region is the “golden heart” of the Far East. The State Duma has adopted in the first reading a bill on the creation of an advanced development area in the region. The preferential regime will stimulate shipbuilding and ship repair, logistics, tourism and other industries. The economy provides an opportunity to develop the social sphere, and therefore, to qualitatively change people’s lives. On behalf of the President, the Magadan master plan is being actively implemented. You can see how the city is changing. Those who come to the region are greeted by a new beautiful airport. You can learn about how the Magadan region is changing, what plans it has for the future, what makes it attractive to investors and tourists at the “Far East Street” exhibition, so that after the EEF you can come and see with your own eyes the northern beauty of nature, get to know the responsive, brave and kind people living in Kolyma,” said Deputy Prime Minister – Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District, Chairman of the Organizing Committee of the Eastern Economic Forum Yuri Trutnev.

    Guests of the pavilion will be able to get acquainted with the culture and life of the indigenous peoples of the North, and learn about the traditions and way of life that are preserved and developed in the region.

    “The Magadan Region is not only rich in mineral resources and industrial potential, but also unique nature, history, culture and character of the Kolyma people. At the EEF, we will show how the region is developing today and what it plans for the future. The focus is on the economy, tourism, social sphere, opportunities for investors and, of course, the traditions of indigenous peoples. All this is an integral part of our Kolyma,” said Magadan Region Governor Sergei Nosov.

    The concept of the Magadan Region pavilion is based on the economic, cultural and natural features of the region. The exposition consists of three zones: the main and small pavilions, as well as podiums with regional expositions.

    A three-meter copy of the sculpture “Time” will become a traditional component. The five-meter original – a mammoth by sculptor Yuri Rudenko – stands in Magadan on the shore of Nagaev Bay. The “skin” of the monument is covered with various metal parts – gears, bearings – and resembles a clock mechanism. On the podium in front of the pavilion there will be a screen on which films dedicated to the natural beauty of Kolyma will be shown, as part of the projects “Far East – Land of Adventure” and “Paths of the Far East”, as well as a stele with the name “Magadan Region”.

    The main site of the region consists of three zones. The first will introduce visitors to the achievements of the Magadan Region in the economic and social spheres over ten years, including projects implemented with the support of the Ministry for the Development of the Far East and the Arctic. The second will host a demonstration of bone-carving art products of the indigenous peoples of the North living in the region. At the site, you can take a selfie against the backdrop of a golden waterfall, symbolizing the main industry of the Magadan Region – the extraction of precious metals.

    The third zone is the space for the placement of a thematic block, introducing visitors to the tourist sites and routes of the region, including the Talaya sanatorium. Visitors will have the opportunity to get acquainted with the best examples of traditional culture and purchase the products they like.

    The small pavilion will introduce guests to the recently opened art space “Rynda” in Magadan, where you can buy re-esterified fish oil – omega-3, which is produced in the capital of Kolyma at the “Omega-Si” plant. The second zone will host an exhibition and sale of jewelry and souvenirs. The third space, “Kolyma – from Victory to Victory”, will introduce visitors to facts about the role of Kolyma in the Victory in the Great Patriotic War, as well as its contribution to ensuring the success of the country during the special military operation.

    In addition, the exposition of the Magadan Region will be complemented by an installation installed on the embankment, stylized as the Mayak Park, located in Nagaev Bay, created with the help of a single presidential subsidy. Various activities, games, master classes and karaoke are also planned for the pavilion guests.

    The 10th Eastern Economic Forum will be held on September 3–6 at the campus of the Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok. During these days, the exhibition will be available to forum participants, and on September 7, 8, and 9, it will be open to everyone. The EEF is organized by the Roscongress Foundation.

    Resolution of July 31, 2025 No. 1133

    A new airspace class H (“h”) has appeared in Russia, intended for flights of unmanned aerial vehicles. The decree on introducing the corresponding changes to the Federal Rules for the Use of Russian Airspace was signed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin. The adopted decision will create conditions for the further development of civil unmanned aviation and ensure flight safety.

    Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the establishment of a separate airspace class to simplify the operations of unmanned aerial systems following a meeting on the development of unmanned aerial systems held on January 28, 2025. “H” became the fourth class in Russian airspace – until now it included classes A, C and G.

    Class H is established in the airspace from 0 to 150 m from the earth’s (water’s) surface and on routes specially designated for flights of unmanned aerial vehicles at altitudes below 3050 m.

    Information on flight routes for unmanned aerial systems and the conditions for their use will be published by Rosaviatsia.

    “Our country has become one of the few that has approved a separate class of airspace for drones,” said Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev. “This is a truly important step that will improve the integration of unmanned aircraft systems into the airspace and simplify their operation in the context of the ever-growing demand for use in various industries.”

    According to Vitaly Savelyev, the large-scale work carried out by the Russian Ministry of Transport and Rosaviatsia on regulatory regulation of the industry will continue.

    “We are constantly analyzing the law enforcement practice of using unmanned aerial vehicles and are working on fine-tuning this area,” the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

    BEIJING, Aug. 1 (Xinhua) — China’s General Administration of Taxation (GATT) has released detailed rules for foreign investors to claim tax breaks on reinvested dividends, providing operational guidance on the preferential tax treatment under the newly unveiled policy measures.

    In June this year, the Ministry of Finance, the State Tax Administration and the Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China announced that they would provide foreign investors with a 10 percent corporate income tax rebate on direct domestic investment financed by dividends from profits of enterprises resident in the People’s Republic of China.

    The benefit, which will be in effect from January 1, 2025, to December 31, 2028, will allow unused tax credits to be carried forward to a later date and allow lower rates to be applied under applicable tax treaties.

    According to a notice issued by the State Tax Service on Thursday, profits used to make additional contributions to subscribed authorized capital or to increase paid-in capital or capital reserves qualify as reinvestment.

    The agency’s notice also explains the scope of this tax incentive, including the definition of the time period for reinvestment, the method for calculating the tax credit amount, and the procedures for foreign investors to receive tax incentives.

    Notably, China offers tax incentives to encourage overseas investment. In 2024, the preferential policy of temporarily exempting foreign investors from paying taxes on certain types of profits led to a rapid increase in foreign reinvestment in China, according to previously published data from the State Tax Inspectorate of China. -0-

  • MIL-OSI Russia: “I felt like an expert” — a RUDN University master’s student about participating in a scientific and practical school at the Eurasian Economic Forum

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Peoples’Friendship University of Russia –

    An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    How to bring products of the Belarusian company SinRubEnergo, which produces energy equipment, to the Armenian market? A team of students had to think up a business strategy with such a task at a scientific and practical school that took place during the Eurasian Economic Forum in Minsk. It was this team that included a master’s student of the RUDN University Faculty of Economics, Khafiza Nigmatullaeva.

    All participants of the school, and this is more than 50 people from different universities of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus, were divided into five groups. They represented the member countries of the Eurasian Economic Union: Armenia, Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. Each of the groups, except Belarus, developed a project to bring the products of “SinRubEnergo” to the market of the country they were assigned. And the “Belarus” team got the market of Uzbekistan. The company for which the students prepared the projects is a resident of the industrial park “Great Stone”. Therefore, the defense of the works took place on the territory of this park.

    “Armenia is probably one of the most difficult countries to implement such a project, given its political and economic peculiarities. Despite this, we managed to develop an effective and comprehensive plan, which was highly praised by the jury. We competently distributed the tasks among ourselves, relying on the strengths of each: one participant specialized in legal issues, another in marketing, someone confidently worked with analytics and data visualization,” – Khafiza Nigmatullaeva, Master’s student of the Faculty of Economics of RUDN (International Trade, 1st year).

    Logistics and flexibility

    During the tour of the Great Stone, Hafiz, along with another member of the team, was discussed with the residents of the park, how can they use their potential to solve logistics problems. And at a meeting with the Deputy General Director of the North-Western Administrative District of the Industrial Park Development, Arthur Detkov, they found out how appropriate to cooperate with logistics resident companies compared to attracting external operators. “As a result, we reached one of the resident companies, which not only confirmed the possibility of organizing transportation from Belarus to Armenia, but also prepared preliminary calculations of the cost of logistics operations. This has become a significant contribution to the project, since it is logistics that often represents one of the most complex parts of such strategies and requires an accurate miscalculation. Our approach, based on creativity, flexibility and ability to quickly find practical solutions, was also marked by the jury. In addition, one of the members of the commission, Oleg Tabanyukhov, praised our proposals to improve the legal regime of the industrial park and even asked to send our ideas to him. This is largely the merit of our colleague Diana Silchenko – students of the Belarusian Economic State University. In general, I want to emphasize the high level of training and involvement of all members of the team. Working with them was easy and truly productive. The projects of other teams were also very strong, I hope our ideas will be useful to Sinrubenergo, Hafiz Nigmatullaeva, undergraduate of the Faculty of Economics RUDN (direction “International Trade”, I Course).

    Debate on customs rates

    According to the RUDN student, the program of the scientific and practical school was very intense and did not end with work on projects. Every day, students were given excursions, including a visit to the Minsk Tractor Plant and the BelGee automobile plant (a joint Belarusian-Chinese production facility), where they saw the process of assembling cars. The school participants also attended lectures by Belarusian government officials and business representatives. Deputy Minister of Economy of the Republic Kirill Masharsky spoke about the work of the EAEU and his experience in public service. And Director of OJSC Giprosvyaz Anton Alekseev talked to students about digital trends in economic development.

    “Another memorable event was the simulation of the Eurasian Economic Commission. During the business game, we had a lively debate on the issue of extending zero customs duties on electric vehicles. This allowed us to feel like experts and representatives of our country. I am sincerely glad that I took part in the scientific school. Here, each student was able to apply their theoretical knowledge in practice, work in a team, discuss current topics with other participants and experts. I am sure that such initiatives play an important role in building professional confidence, developing communication skills and accumulating real-life experience,” — Khafiza Nigmatullaeva, Master’s student at the Faculty of Economics of RUDN (International Trade, 1st year).

    Almaty, July 31 (Xinhua) — Kazakhstan and Russia will soon complete an analysis of technical possibilities for increasing the transit of Russian oil to China through Kazakhstan, the Kazinform news agency reported on Thursday, citing Kazakh Energy Minister Yerlan Akkenzhenov.

    According to the minister, the Russian state oil pipeline company Transneft has asked Kazakhstan to increase the transit of Russian oil to China by up to 2.5 million tons.

    Currently, Transneft and Kazakhstan’s national oil operator KazTransOil are working to study the technical feasibility of increasing supplies.

    “I think they will be completed in the near future, and then we will find a precise answer as to whether it is necessary to build new oil pumping stations /OPS/,” said E. Akkenzhenov.

    According to the minister, it is possible to do without building an oil pumping station, but with the use of specialized additives. –0–
