  • MIL-OSI United Kingdom: Ukraine’s resilience remains nothing short of extraordinary: UK Statement to the OSCE

    Source: United Kingdom – Executive Government & Departments

    UK Military Advisor, Lt Col Joby Rimmer, says nobody desires peace more than Ukraine, yet peace must be just and sustainable. It is our responsibility to ensure that they do not stand alone.

    Thank you, Mr Chair. As we approach the fourth year of Russia’s illegal war of aggression, Ukraine’s resilience remains nothing short of extraordinary. Despite immense challenges, Ukraine continues to demonstrate an unbreakable spirit and an unyielding commitment to its sovereignty, freedom, and the rules-based international order.

    Last week at the FSC, the Russian Delegation stated that they owned ‘the strategic initiative along the entire line of contact’. But Ukrainian forces continue to hold their ground, not only defending their homeland but also reclaiming and securing additional territory, including in Kursk. Russian open sources report the Russian VDV 11th Airborne brigade commander has been relieved of duty following his failure to stop this recent Ukrainian counterattack. DPRK Troops deployed to the frontlines in December 2024, were withdrawn from their positions to recuperate following heavy losses. As of mid-January 2025, DPRK forces had highly likely sustained c4,000 casualties, more than one third of the 11,000 troops deployed to Kursk. Far from maintaining the ‘strategic initiative’, Russia has to resort to recklessly deploying DPRK troops to the front line, showing a complete disregard for human life, whilst not even officially acknowledging their presence on the battlefield.

    There is no evidence of a Russian willingness to compromise. Russia spoke of being ‘open to reasonable initiatives to achieve a peaceful resolution’. But when examining the options available, Moscow has chosen a path of aggression, regardless of the catastrophic loss of life on both sides. There is no sense of reason. This is not a ‘special military operation’. It is a full-scale invasion and occupation attempt, a blatant violation of international law, and a direct challenge to global stability.

    No one desires peace more than Ukraine. The Ukrainian people have suffered relentless bombardment and forced displacement, and we see the UN reports of war crimes committed by Russian forces. Yet peace must be just and sustainable. A truly just and lasting peace means one that respects the UN Charter and the Helsinki Final Act. Ukraine cannot be expected to surrender its sovereignty or accept a dictated settlement that rewards Russian aggression. The Russian delegation in this forum said there will be no ‘freeze along the line of contact’. We would agree. Russia must withdraw from all of Ukraine’s sovereign territory. Any peace that fails to hold Russia accountable will only invite further aggression – not just against Ukraine, but against other nations that dare to assert their independence.

    President Putin’s war is built on a demand for total submission through violence. No sovereign nation could or should, accept such terms. The international community has a moral and strategic obligation to stand with Ukraine. Our commitment to Ukraine remains absolute. We will continue to confront Russian aggression through military, economic, and diplomatic means. We will hold President Putin and his regime accountable for their war crimes. We will ensure that Ukraine has the resources necessary to defend itself for as long as it takes. Ukraine’s courage and determination have already defied expectations. It is our responsibility to ensure that they do not stand alone. Thank you, Mr Chair.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Marat Khusnullin: Drilling operations have begun during the construction of the interchange on the M-11 “Neva” with a connection to Pulkovo Airport

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    At the 681st km of the M-11 “Neva” highway, construction is underway on a transport interchange to Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg

    At the 681st km of the M-11 Neva highway, a transport interchange to Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg is being built. It includes three overpasses. Currently, specialists are working on the foundations of two artificial structures made of bored piles. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

    “A lot has been done in the context of road activities to connect the regions of the country with single routes in different directions. Thanks to the launch of new sections and the reconstruction of existing ones, a seamless, traffic-light-free route has already been created from St. Petersburg to the Republic of Bashkortostan and Sevastopol, which also runs along the M-11 “Neva” highway. This road system will also include a new interchange on the M-11 to Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg, which is being built on the instructions of the President. Specialists have begun to construct the foundations of two future overpasses over Pulkovo Highway from bored piles. They have already driven 16 piles for the first support and have begun drilling the piles of the third support. This is the most important stage of the work, on which the stability and reliability of the entire transport interchange depends in the future. In total, three overpasses are planned to be built as part of the future transport infrastructure facility, for which 151 piles need to be driven and 20 supports erected,” said Marat Khusnullin.

    The new access road to Pulkovo Airport starts at the 681st km of the M-11 Neva highway, crosses Pulkovo Highway and is directly adjacent to the entrance to the airport. The first overpass is located directly above the M-11 Neva, and the other two are above Pulkovo Highway. The new complex of road structures will allow motorists to safely and quickly get to the air harbor.

    According to the Chairman of the Board of the state company Avtodor, Vyacheslav Petushenko, this project is of great importance, since it affects the increase of transport accessibility and connectivity of the country’s regions, especially in the context of the predicted increase in passenger turnover at Pulkovo Airport.

    “We are building a connecting four-lane highway of the highest technical category, without traffic lights and intersections with other roads at the same level. Now we are installing bored piles at the site using two drilling rigs. The piles have been drilled into the first support of the two future overpasses over Pulkovo Highway, and now we are installing the reinforcement frame and assembling the formwork for concreting the grillage. At the same time, we are carrying out work on installing the roadbed, bringing in and compacting sandy soil,” noted Vyacheslav Petushenko.

    The total length of the new connecting road, as well as all exits at the intersection of M-11 “Neva” and Pulkovo Highway, will be 5.5 km. Opening of traffic on it for motorists is planned for the end of 2026.

    12 February 2025, Paris.

    We are ready to enhance our support for Ukraine. We commit to its independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity in the face of Russia’s war of aggression.

    We share the goal to keep supporting Ukraine until a just, comprehensive and lasting peace is reached. A peace that guarantees the interest of Ukraine and our own.

    We are looking forward to discussing the way ahead together with our American allies. Our shared objectives should be to put Ukraine in a position of strength. Ukraine and Europe must be part of any negotiations. Ukraine should be provided with strong security guarantees. A just and lasting peace in Ukraine is a necessary condition for a strong transatlantic security.

    We recall that the security of the European continent is our common responsibility. We are therefore working together to strengthen our collective defence capabilities.

  • MIL-OSI United Kingdom: Russia’s deceit did not work in 2022 and it will not work now: UK statement to the OSCE

    Source: United Kingdom – Government Statements

    Ambassador Holland recalls Russia’s deceit at the OSCE in the weeks leading up to their full-scale invasion of Ukraine and reiterates that UK will support Ukraine to achieve a just and lasting peace.

    Thank you, Mister Chair.  In just over a week, we will reach yet another unwelcome milestone: three years since Russia launched its illegal and unprovoked full-scale invasion of its sovereign neighbour, Ukraine.

    A war that Russia believed would be over in three days will enter a fourth year.  A war Russia launched under the false pretext of protecting Ukrainian civilians has instead caused thousands of them to be killed.  A war which we were told would not happen has, since those denials, violated every principle of the Helsinki Final Act and demonstrated contempt for the rules that govern armed conflict.

    Let us recall, using their own language,  what Russia told us in the days and weeks leading up to their full-scale invasion.  On the 20th of January, we were told that “the myth of Russia’s alleged impending” invasion had been “hyped up.”  On the 3rd of February we were told that the speculation of an invasion was “unsubstantiated conjectures”.  This was an “information campaign being whipped up primarily by the United States and the United Kingdom”.  On the 10th of February, apparently the facts showed that these were “scare stories” and nothing more than “a puff of propaganda and idle talk”.

    We all know what happened on the 24th of February.  The records of our meetings offer incontrovertible evidence of Russia’s disinformation and deceit.  It continues to this day, week in and week out.

    Mister Chair, on that note we have recently heard Russia single-out on multiple occasions the UK’s role in providing military support to Ukraine.   The UK makes no secret of our unbreakable support for Ukraine.  We have agreed a new 100-year partnership with Ukraine.  We are proud to have committed to providing £3 billion of military aid to Ukraine every year for as long as is needed.  I want to be clear, though – this is not about fuelling war but supporting an innocent, sovereign and independent State in an ongoing defence against a barbaric onslaught that Russia assured us would never happen.

    We have always said that we will support Ukraine to achieve a just and lasting peace.  Our priority remains to put Ukraine in the strongest possible position to achieve this.

    Thank you.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Tatyana Golikova: The goal of the national project “Personnel” is to coordinate the efforts of educational institutions, employment centers, companies and the state

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova addressed the participants, guests and organizers of the “Personnel” forum with a video greeting.

    Welcome speech by Tatyana Golikova to the participants, guests and organizers of the forum “Personnel”

    Dear colleagues!

    I am pleased to welcome you to the “Personnel” forum as part of the now traditional Russian Business Week, organized by the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs.

    Russian President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin has repeatedly emphasized: “Human resources are an absolute value that must be treated responsibly, protected, strengthened, and resources and investments must be invested in this area.”

    Competent, skilled, and dedicated employees are always important. But today, when our country faces the challenges of technological leadership and industrial sovereignty, the team literally becomes the defining resource.

    Over the past few years, the labor market has undergone dramatic changes. Demographics, the growth of labor-intensive industries, and the established labor productivity have significantly influenced the transformation of the labor market and the formation of its new model. Demand for employees will grow, while the unemployment rate will remain at a historical minimum.

    The answers to these challenges cannot be found in education, employment or business alone.

    In order to provide the economy with in-demand specialists, a new national project, “Personnel,” was launched this year on the instructions of the President. Its goal is to coordinate the efforts of educational institutions, employment centers, companies, and the state.

    The national project includes four federal projects: “Labour Market Management”, “Education for the Labour Market”, “Active Measures to Promote Employment” and “Labour Person”. Their implementation over the next six years will allow the necessary labour resources to be involved in the economy.

    A lot of work has been done to form a forecast of personnel needs for a five-year period. According to our estimates, the Russian economy’s need for personnel up to 2030 is 3.1 million people. The greatest growth is expected in manufacturing (more than 703 thousand people), transportation and storage (about 472 thousand people) and construction (more than 385 thousand people).

    The need for personnel arises not only in connection with the opening of new jobs, but also in connection with the need to replace those specialists who are retiring. Therefore, it is necessary to plan work not only based on the formation of a reserve for development plans, but also taking into account the age composition of workers, competition between industries and forms of employment.

    From the forecast we see that skilled workers are becoming the most valuable labor reserve. Specialists with secondary vocational education account for 70% of the replacement demand of the labor market.

    The forecast of personnel needs will become the basis for the formation of control figures for admission to the system of secondary and higher education. And our task is to build a flexible, effective system of training specialists to meet the demands of the economy. Young specialists must be as prepared as possible for the beginning of their working career.

    We have launched a system for monitoring graduate employment and are developing a program for individual support for students. This will help to form the necessary internship and practice base for students during their studies, to get acquainted with enterprises, and to find an employer.

    We are improving the labor market management system by transforming employment centers into “Work of Russia” personnel centers. They are becoming full-fledged partners of employers in building teams and personal consultants for those wishing to build a career. This year, comprehensive modernization will take place in 17 regions, and by the end of 2028, the entire employment service system in the country will be updated.

    Simply selecting vacancies is not relevant now, our task is to give enterprises the opportunity to create strong and effective teams. There are all the tools for this – targeted training, hiring subsidies, assistance in equipping workplaces for people with special needs, free retraining for adults – we carried it out within the framework of the national project “Demography” (in six years we covered almost 1 million job seekers) and will continue within the framework of the national project “Personnel”, orienting programs directly to the order of employers.

    Today, the Government is implementing projects to increase the prestige of sought-after professions. Measures to support the sphere of corporate training are being developed. From this year, we intend to co-finance training in corporate and training centers of enterprises. We are conducting systematic work to find sources and select specialists for the needs of our economy.

    Achieving the goals of ensuring the economy’s personnel sovereignty, as I have already said, is only possible in partnership. And we are counting on a number of actions from employers.

    We see and welcome a consistent increase in wage levels, as well as an increase in labor productivity with concern for the preservation of human resources.

    The involvement and active participation of employers in personnel training – participation in career guidance work, inclusion in the procedure of targeted training, the formation of a responsible personnel order through a forecast of personnel needs – all this will allow us to set up systemic work to prepare a sufficient number and quality of specialists.

    And of course, the most important issue is the joint promotion of in-demand professions.

    Taking this opportunity, I would like to remind you: starting this year, on the instructions of the President, we are rebooting the All-Russian competition of professional skills “Best in Profession”. Its regional stages will start already in the spring. This year, 19 nominations are dedicated to in-demand blue-collar professions, and a special nomination – “Second Start” – will allow everyone who has retrained in blue-collar professions to participate. I invite your teams to participate in this competition.

    I wish all participants, guests and organizers of the forum meaningful discussions, the conquest of new professional heights and the achievement of the most ambitious goals for the benefit of our country and its citizens!

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Attention, beware of telephone scammers

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University – Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University –

    We warn you about the increased activity of telephone scammers, especially through instant messengers, as well as using neural networks and artificial intelligence tools.

    Telephone scammers use various methods:

    send malicious links and call on behalf of banks, demanding to provide a code from an SMS; call and send messages via instant messengers (Telegram, WhatsApp and others); create fake accounts, videos with complete identity of the voice and image on behalf of the rector, directors of institutes, employees of law enforcement agencies (FSB, Ministry of Internal Affairs, Rosfinmonitoring and others).

    If you receive a call or a message on social media or a messenger from the university management or the director of the institute asking you to help law enforcement officials, lend money or perform some action, do not rush to help and transfer money. Most often, it turns out that the person’s profile has been hacked, and money is being extorted on their behalf, and terrorists are forcing them to perform some actions. Check whether your interlocutor is really who they say they are. If this is a familiar person, but you hardly communicate with them in real life, do not transfer money to them or follow links. Most likely, a fraudster is writing on their behalf

    If there are doubts about the authenticity of the interlocutor, the following steps should be taken:

    immediately stop talking or corresponding with the unknown user; report the situation to your supervisor or teacher; verify the identity of the contact: if the caller or sender introduces himself or herself as someone you know, contact him or her at the number you know.

    Be vigilant, do not communicate with scammers!

  • MIL-OSI Russia: HSE University Discusses Academic Development Tools and Ways to Engage Young People in Science

    © Higher School of Economics

    A round table was held on the topic of “Academic Development at the University Today and Tomorrow”. Its participants discussed the tools of academic development used in various subject areas and ways of involving young people in science, one of which is holding regular scientific seminars. The best practices of HSE departments were presented.

    Vice-Rector Alexander Balyshev noted in his opening remarks that the relevance of the roundtable topic is due to the current shortage of personnel both in the academy and in the economy as a whole, and one of its tasks is to rethink the relevance of the academic development tools that exist at HSE.

    The moderator of the round table, Deputy Vice-Rector, Head of the HSE, spoke about the challenges of academic development and the HSE’s responses to these challenges. Office of Academic Development Anastasia Stepanova. She emphasized that the concept of academic development has been relevant for the last 30-40 years and is associated with the changing role of the university in society. The main task of academic development is considered to be providing support to scientists to improve their competence and ensure confidence in their identity.

    According to Anastasia Stepanova, academic development at HSE supports the implementation of the university’s strategy, creates conditions for the growth of scientific schools and helps to respond to external challenges. In addition to its strategic importance, it has a positive effect on organizational efficiency, promotes personnel development and gives the university institutional advantages, enhancing its competitiveness.

    Among the most popular tools for academic development, the Deputy Vice-Rector noted seminars and consultations on academic writing, an academic development program for new teachers and researchers (Academic personnel reserve), mentoring, postdoc programs, as well as various adaptation and integration events for scientists. Based on regular internal monitoring data, it showed clearly expressed needs of scientists: about 40% of respondents are interested in new opportunities to exchange experience with colleagues from other universities, 34% – in expanding access to databases, 25% – in improving scientific communication. The youngest researchers naturally demonstrate a demand for data analysis and academic writing skills.

    Zoomers and Science

    The main topic of discussion in the first part of the round table was the challenges arising in connection with the arrival of the zoomer generation in science.

    The head of the department noted a significant gap between the classical approach to scientific work and the new habits of the younger generation of researchers. Scientific Laboratory of Spatial-Econometric Modeling of Socio-Economic Processes in Russia Olga Demidova. While building a scientific reputation traditionally requires deep immersion in the material and long, painstaking work, today’s young scientists are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence tools to speed up the research process. This poses an important challenge for the scientific community: how to combine modern ways of working with information with the depth of scientific research.

    Deputy Dean for Science Faculty of World Economy and World Politics Alexandra Morozkina suggested specific ways to do this, such as organizing discussions of articles at scientific seminars (and then students will have to read them from beginning to end), holding seminars without gadgets. She also spoke about a program for attracting scientific assistants to the faculty, within the framework of which a student helps a teacher in his scientific work for a small fee and sees the benefits of such work. All students who have gone through this program go on to teach and participate in various projects of the faculty.

    Supervisor Schools of Philological Sciences Evgeny Kazartsev recalled two large projects dedicated to speech practices and the sociology of literature, which were successfully implemented by the school. They included a significant digital component, and, in his opinion, without the participation of zoomers who know how to use digital tools, the projects would not have taken place.

    Dean Faculty of Geography and Geoinformation Technologies Nikolay Kurichev believes that earlier, when choosing scientific activity, young people clearly understood its differences from work in business or in the civil service, where the rules are stricter, but now, as science is becoming “managerialized,” the difference is becoming less obvious. But it should be there, and this is, first of all, interaction with a mentor, a scientific supervisor, as well as an environment – “seminars where crazy people who are burning with scientific ideas should gather.”

    Continuing the theme of differences between academia and business, Vice Dean for Research Faculty of Computer Science Alexey Mitsyuk reported that the IT industry today differs very little from the scientific environment. Large companies are increasingly engaged in computer science, and the conditions created in these companies today are no worse than in universities. There is freedom to choose tasks, opportunities for development, there is no need to work with students and engage in organizational activities. For universities, this is a problem, since competition with business research arises.

    Deputy Director Department of Data Analysis and Artificial Intelligence Vasily Gromov outlined the trends in the transformation of science and scientific activity. He noted that in the near future a scientific market will be formed in which the university will lose its monopoly status. At the same time, society will change its understanding of what a scientist does, and perhaps the concept of disciplinarity will disappear.

    First Vice-Rector Vadim Radaev emphasized that young people, starting with millennials, are increasingly abandoning a linear professional trajectory — they change professions and consider it indecent to sit in one place for more than three or four years. “Academic activity, as we are accustomed to seeing and building it, involves long-term investments and full immersion with a long-term building of a scientific reputation and unclear prospects. And young colleagues burn out before they have time to shed light on anything,” he explained.

    Vice-Rector Sergey Roshchin focused on the topic of goal-setting in academic development: “As a rule, we do not raise this issue, but only support it with some data, such as statistics on published articles. However, the goals of academic development are contextual in nature from the point of view of the society around us and should not be limited to publication activity alone.”

    As for the claims about the peculiarities of zoomers, both a hundred and two hundred years ago, representatives of the older generation claimed that the next generation was not like them. According to the vice-rector, the key question is what is the value of science so that the younger generation continues to study it within the walls of the university. “Science studies are not studies that interest you now, but studies based on the current agenda in society, in combination with what interests you,” he concluded.

    Scientific seminars: constancy, obligation, regularity

    The second part of the round table was devoted to involving young people in scientific discussion. Vadim Radaev, who made the key report on this topic, noted: “First of all, we need to have this discussion, especially since real discussions are extremely rare on the pages of journals.” A regular scientific seminar becomes a platform for it.

    In his report, the First Vice-Rector of the HSE emphasized that seminar activities are not an addition or an appendix, but part of the foundation, one of the main forms of work. “I believe that a scientific department without a regular seminar is an institutional fiction: individual scientists conduct research and publish results, but the integrity of the organization, the environment that should form scientists, remains more on paper,” he said.

    The speaker shared his experience in organizing scientific seminars Department of Economic Sociology And Laboratory of Economic and Sociological Research (LESI), which he heads. His departments have held scientific seminars weekly since 2002, and he does not consider this to be anything extraordinary. Even if not weekly, then a monthly seminar should be the norm for any scientific community. Anyone can organize a seminar, but it is difficult to do so on a regular basis. “Many great projects started and then, unfortunately, died out,” Vadim Radaev noted. In his opinion, a seminar should have a permanent core, be mandatory, be held regularly (at least once a month) and in person (a hybrid format is possible), have a fixed day, time and plan for at least two to three months, be announced in advance and not be postponed.

    Vadim Radaev believes that the topic of the seminar is not the main thing: the speakers are more important. He emphasized that only full texts of research should be discussed, and materials should be sent to participants at least a week in advance. It is advisable to invite discussants to the seminar, make uniform demands on all colleagues from students to professors, and gently and persistently observe the rules so that the seminar does not turn into, for example, a benefit performance for the speaker.

    According to Vadim Radaev, the value of a scientific seminar lies primarily in communication. This is a good way to create and maintain an environment, an opportunity to interest and retain young colleagues who, as noted in the first part of the round table, are today prone to a rapid loss of interest in science.

    Other HSE employees also spoke about their successful experience of participating in scientific seminars and organizing them.

    Dean Faculty of Computer Science Ivan Arzhantsev recalled that mathematics in the USSR, which flourished in the 1960s and 1970s, lived by scientific seminars. At the same time, work was organized differently in foreign universities. “Colleagues envied us that we had such a wonderful culture of scientific seminars,” said the dean of the Faculty of Computer Science. He himself participated in one of these seminars, and now the faculty holds a mathematical seminar every two weeks.

    Head of the Department of Mathematics Faculty of Economic Sciences Fuad Aleskerov spoke about two scientific seminars that he leads, one of which has been held for 60 years, including more than 20 years at the HSE. In his opinion, seminars should not be limited in time; it is quite acceptable if they last for four hours.

    Referring to his experience working in foreign universities, the dean Faculty of Social Sciences Denis Stukal reported that scientific seminars there can take place both in the form of formal discussions – traditional regular meetings of scientists, and in the form of informal discussions – for example, meetings and discussions of scientific ideas over lunch. In his opinion, organizing a seminar should be a common matter for all employees of the department, who are responsible for this periodically.

    Professor Elena Dragalina-Chernaya shared her experience of holding regular seminars in International Laboratory of Logic, Linguistics and Formal Philosophy. There are five of them in the laboratory: theoretical, analytical, reading seminar and two scientific and educational seminars. She believes it is important to support the initiatives of young researchers and give them their own space for discussions. The professor emphasized that long-term internships for young scientists are important for the development of international and interdisciplinary projects.

    Summing up the round table, Alexander Balyshev said that its participants demonstrated a demand for updating the goal-setting of academic development at the university. He also noted the need to communicate to target groups, especially young researchers, information about the opportunities opening up to them and stated that scientific seminars are still a relevant and mandatory component of the work of all scientific departments of the HSE.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Rosneft produced 145 millionth ton of oil at Uvat project

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

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

    The accumulated production of RN-Uvatneftegaz (part of the oil production complex of NK Rosneft) has reached 145 million tons of oil since the start of operation of the Uvat project fields located in the south of the Tyumen region. The company provides about 80% of the total volume of oil produced in the region.

    High production indicators were achieved thanks to the introduction of new technologies by RN-Uvatneftegaz specialists, successful exploration work, and the efficient operation of the production fund, which numbers a thousand wells at 24 discovered hydrocarbon fields.

    During the year, more than 380 geological and technical measures were carried out at the Uvat project on the existing well stock, which is 10% higher than the previous period, with additional oil production of more than 500 thousand tons. In 2024, the volume of production drilling amounted to 628 thousand meters. Last year, a new field, Severo-Nemchinovskoye, was put into operation at the Uvat project, and the first commercial oil flow was obtained at the Yuzhno-Venikhyartskaya area. The starting flow rate of the horizontal well was three times higher than the average for the region and amounted to more than 300 tons of oil per day.

    The company is actively expanding its resource base by exploring new license areas. In geological exploration in 2024, the drilling exceeded 27 thousand meters, the success rate of exploration drilling was 100%. Field seismic exploration work was carried out at new sites of Yelovaya, Uspeshnaya and Vostochno-Gerasimovskaya. Based on the results of exploration, 9 new hydrocarbon deposits were discovered.

    To effectively develop deposits in hard-to-reach marshy terrain, the Uvat project uses a strategy to create hubs – centers with a single infrastructure, to which smaller satellite deposits are gradually added. Currently, there are four hubs operating in Uvat: Vostochny, Protozanovsky, Tyamkinsky and Kalchinsky, the infrastructure of which is constantly expanding.

    The construction of new oil and gas production and preparation facilities, interfield pipelines, power generation facilities and social infrastructure continues at the Uvat project fields. In 2024, the company began creating the industrial infrastructure of the Tavricheskoye field, and also commissioned a new Taltsiya 110/10 kV 2×6.3 MVA electrical substation, which will meet the future needs of the production infrastructure of the Protozanovsky hub.

    To improve production efficiency, the company is actively implementing innovative developments from Rosneft, such as the Sfera 3D information technology system, which contains more than 3,000 digital twins of objects and more than 5,700 twins of vehicles. The system allows for prompt, correct technical decisions.

    Last year, the company conducted seven pilot industrial tests of new equipment and technologies, which yielded significant economic benefits.

    RN-Uvatneftegaz is the largest enterprise of Rosneft in the Tyumen region, one of the main subsoil users, taxpayers and employers of the region. Today, the implementation of the Uvat project is ensured by more than 2.7 thousand employees of the enterprise and almost 7 thousand employees of contractors. RN-Uvatneftegaz creates conditions for their comfortable living, including at autonomous fields. Based on the results of work in the social sphere, the enterprise became the winner of the regional stage of the competition “Russian Organization of High Social Efficiency” in several nominations at once, including for the best conditions for employees with families.

    The Uvat project uses modern technologies that ensure a high level of environmental protection, industrial safety and labor protection. The company carries out systematic work on reforestation and conservation of aquatic biological resources of the region. Over the past five years, RN-Uvatneftegaz has planted 6 million pine and spruce seedlings, and released more than 6.6 million juveniles of valuable fish species into the rivers of the Ob-Irtysh basin. In addition, the company supports scientific research, for example, on the conservation of the forest reindeer population in the Tyumen region, and carries out active environmental education work.

    For almost 25 years, RN-Uvatneftegaz has played a significant role in the socio-economic development of the Tyumen Region. Under the current agreement between Rosneft and the region, the company annually provides support to medical, sports, cultural and educational institutions. As part of the corporate continuous education program “School-College/University-Enterprise”, “Rosneft-Classes” have been operating in the region for 10 years, preparing future specialists for the oil industry from school.

    The company also closely cooperates with the indigenous peoples of the Uvatsky District, helping to preserve their unique national culture and way of life.

    Source: Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University – Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University –

    Ethiopian graduate student Yared Dejene Jifar received a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from Adam University of Science and Technology (ASTU). Inspired by stories of friendship between the countries, he decided to continue his studies in Russia. In an interview, Yared talked about how adaptation in another country is going and shared his plans for the future.

    — Why did you decide to study in Russia?

    — I have always liked your country. My friends who studied here in the 1980s told me about the strong friendship between our countries. These stories inspired me to study civil engineering technologies in Russia.

    — Were your expectations from living in Russia met?

    — First of all, I was impressed by the level of infrastructure development in the country. An example of well-thought-out design is the metro. The language barrier was a serious challenge for me. I am trying to learn Russian, but the process is slow. Although I understand that knowledge of the language is the key to successful adaptation.

    — Why did you choose the Polytechnic University?

    — When I was looking for a university with a civil engineering program in English, I chose the Polytechnic University. Your university has a unique atmosphere for studying and developing. Advanced laboratories, highly qualified professors, incredible opportunities, modern technologies and much more.

    I always dreamed of studying in Russia, a country with a rich history, deep culture and the highest standards of education. I learned about the international Olympiad Open Doors: Russian Scholarship, which offers a unique chance to study in Russia for free.

    — What got you interested in civil engineering?

    — I plan to improve the construction sector in my country. I am especially interested in modern technologies, such as BIM (building information modeling). This is the future of construction, and I want to be part of this process.

    — Tell us what you do besides studying.

    — We recently visited the building of the Levashovsky bread factory, which after reconstruction turned into a cultural and business center. During the tour, we learned about the unique engineering solutions that allowed us to preserve the historical building and its role in the history of St. Petersburg. We were especially impressed by the years of the siege of Leningrad. I pay tribute to the fallen heroes.

    I was doing financial analysis of the renovation of Soviet-era buildings, and this tour gave me useful information on how heritage can be preserved and adapted for new purposes without demolition.

    — Share your plans for what you will do after completing your Master’s degree.

    — I plan to work in Russia to gain practical experience and then return to Ethiopia. I hope to introduce modern construction technologies and materials to change traditional construction methods, which are still limited to concrete and steel reinforcement.
