  • MIL-OSI Analysis: Experiencing extreme weather and disasters is not enough to change views on climate action, study shows

    Climate change has made extreme weather events such as bushfires and floods more frequent and more likely in recent years, and the trend is expected to continue. These events have led to human and animal deaths, harmed physical and mental health, and damaged properties and infrastructure.

    Will firsthand experience of these events change how people think and act about climate change, making it seem immediate and local rather than a distant or future problem?

    Research so far has offered a mixed picture. Some studies suggest going through extreme weather can make people more likely to believe in climate change, worry about it, support climate policies, and vote for Green parties. But other studies have found no such effects on people’s beliefs, concern, or behaviour.

    New research led by Viktoria Cologna at ETH Zurich in Switzerland may help to explain what’s going on. Using data from around the world, the study suggests simple exposure to extreme weather events does not affect people’s view of climate action – but linking those events to climate change can make a big difference.

    Global opinion, global weather

    The new study, published in Nature Climate Change, looked at the question of extreme weather and climate opinion using two global datasets.

    The first is the Trust in Science and Science-related Populism (TISP) survey, which includes responses from more than 70,000 people in 68 countries. It measures public support for climate policies and the extent that people think climate change is behind increases in extreme weather.

    The second dataset estimates how much of each country’s population has been affected each year by events such as droughts, floods, heatwaves and storms. These estimates are based on detailed models and historical climate records.

    Public support for climate policies

    The survey measured public support for climate policy by asking people how much they supported five specific actions to cut carbon emissions. These included raising carbon taxes, improving public transport, using more renewable energy, protecting forests and land, and taxing carbon-heavy foods.

    Responses ranged from 1 (not at all) to 3 (very much). On average, support was fairly strong, with an average rating of 2.37 across the five policies. Support was especially high in parts of South Asia, Africa, the Americas and Oceania, but lower in countries such as Russia, Czechia and Ethiopia.

    Exposure to extreme weather events

    The study found most people around the world have experienced heatwaves and heavy rainfall in recent decades. Wildfires affected fewer people in many European and North American countries, but were more common in parts of Asia, Africa and Latin America.

    Cyclones mostly impacted North America and Asia, while droughts affected large populations in Asia, Latin America and Africa. River flooding was widespread across most regions, except Oceania.

    Do people in countries with higher exposure to extreme weather events show greater support for climate policies? This study found they don’t.

    In most cases, living in a country where more people are exposed to disasters was not reflected in stronger support for climate action.

    Wildfires were the only exception. Countries with more wildfire exposure showed slightly higher support, but this link disappeared once factors such as land size and overall climate belief were considered.

    In short, just experiencing more disasters does not seem to translate into increased support for mitigation efforts.

    Seeing the link between weather and climate change

    In the global survey, people were asked how much they think climate change has increased the impact of extreme weather over recent decades. On average, responses were moderately high (3.8 out of 5) suggesting that many people do link recent weather events to climate change.

    Such an attribution was especially strong in Latin America, but lower in parts of Africa (such as Congo and Ethiopia) and Northern Europe (such as Finland and Norway).

    Crucially, people who more strongly believed climate change had worsened these events were also more likely to support climate policies. In fact, this belief mattered more for policy support than whether they had actually experienced the events firsthand.

    What does this study tell us?

    While public support for climate policies is relatively high around the world, even more support is needed to introduce stronger, more ambitious measures. It might seem reasonable to expect that feeling the effects of climate change would push people to act, but this study suggests that doesn’t always happen.

    Prior research shows less dramatic and chronic events like rainfall or temperature anomalies have less influence on public views than more acute hazards like floods or bushfires. Even then, the influence on beliefs and behaviour tends to be slow and limited.

    This study shows climate impacts alone may not change minds. However, it also highlights what may affect public thinking: helping people recognise the link between climate change and extreme weather events.

    In countries such as Australia, climate change makes up only about 1% of media coverage. What’s more, most of the coverage focuses on social or political aspects rather than scientific, ecological, or economic impacts.

    Many stories about disasters linked to climate change also fail to mention the link, or indeed mention climate change at all. Making these connections clearer may encourage stronger public support for climate action.

    Omid Ghasemi receives funding from the Australian Academy of Science. He was a member of the TISP consortium and a co-author of the dataset used in this study.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: The fifth house was built in Tekstilshchiki under the renovation program

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    In the Tekstilshchiki district in the south-east of Moscow, a fifth new building has appeared under the renovation program. The single-section residential complex is located at 13a Graivoronovskaya Street. The total area of the building is almost 15 thousand square meters. This was reported by the Minister of the Moscow Government, head of the capital’s Department of Urban Development Policy Vladislav Ovchinsky.

    “The building’s living area is 7.9 thousand square meters. There are 140 apartments in the building, four of which are intended for people with limited mobility. The spacious entrance hall has a concierge room, a room for storing strollers and bicycles, and four elevators. In the future, social and household facilities may open on the first non-residential floor. The courtyard has two children’s playgrounds and one sports ground, as well as a quiet recreation area,” Vladislav Ovchinsky specified.

    Near the new building there are schools, a clinic and a kindergarten. Nearby are the Stakhanovskaya and Nizhegorodskaya stations of the Nekrasovskaya metro line, as well as the Nizhegorodskaya station of the Moscow Central Circle.

    “Mosgosstroynadzor supervised the construction of the house on a land plot of 0.5 hectares at all stages. In total, 28 on-site inspections were organized, as a result of the final control and supervision event, the committee’s inspectors issued a conclusion on the compliance of the building with the approved design documentation,” noted the Chairman of the Committee for State Construction Supervision of the City of Moscow

    Anton Slobodchikov.

    Earlier, Sergei Sobyanin reported that this year new housing was received under the renovation program more than 18 thousand Muscovites.

    The renovation program was approved in August 2017. It concerns about a million Muscovites and provides for the resettlement of 5,176 houses. The Moscow mayor ordered to increase the pace of implementation of the renovation program in twice.

    Moscow is one of the leaders among regions in terms of construction volumes. High rates of housing construction correspond to the goals and initiatives of the national project “Infrastructure for life”.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Media Olympus of Polytechnic: congratulations to the winners of the competition!

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

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

    The student competition “MediaActive Polytechnic”, which was held from March to May on the initiative of the Public Relations Department, has ended.

    The competition was held among students. To participate in it, it was necessary to form a team and demonstrate their creative abilities and activity in the official communities of the Polytechnic University VKontakte AndTelegram. The guys completed a variety of tasks: they filmed VK clips, shared photos from university events, and actively participated in surveys.

    “The media activity competition did not assume that you can simply leave more likes and comments under a post and win a prize. Here, students had to show creativity, polytechnic skills, love for the university and not lose interest during the three months that the competition lasted,” said Marianna Dyakova, Head of the Public Relations Department. “Every week, they had to complete tasks, and do it at a high level. And we are very glad that the guys responded and were ready to participate in such a long race. The most motivated ones came to the finish line. And we want to thank the teams that took first, second and third places: they were disciplined, active, and constant in their interest.”

    “Thanks to this competition, the guys were able to demonstrate their talents,” says Olesya Stepanova, head of the special projects department. “And an additional incentive for the participants was that if you create quality content, it will be published on the university’s social networks with a huge audience.”

    “We are always looking for caring students who want to prove themselves at the university, and this competition helped us find them,” says Marianna Dyakova. “They can become volunteers at our events or content makers. I think it makes sense to continue this competition. Perhaps we will fill it with even more creative tasks. Yes, it is connected with media activity, but the most important thing is that it brings to life the values professed by the Lepota ecosystem.”

    Six teams reached the final of the competition, and the winners were chosen based on the number of points earned. The most active and creative was the United Student Council of Dormitories, and each member of the winning team received a cash reward – five thousand rubles!

    Second place went to “6 frames”. Silver medalists will receive an unforgettable gift – a personal photo session in a professional photo studio of the Polytechnic University.

    The Chelyaba team came in third place; the bronze medalists were awarded branded sweatshirts.

    Congratulations to all participants and winners! Your activity and creative approach made the media space of Polytechnic even more vibrant, lively and relevant.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Igor Sechin: Ill-Conceived Strategy Results in Electricity Costs in Europe Five Times Higher Than In the US

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

    Lifting subsidies for green energy in the US shows that this country, unlike the European Union, is returning to a pragmatic policy, said Igor Sechin, Chief Executive Officer of Rosneft.

    The Company’s CEO noted that in the US, where electricity consumption has returned to growth after a decade of stagnation, the new administration is already revising its energy strategy in favor of traditional sources. For example, President Trump recently signed a series of executive orders aimed at revitalizing the coal industry. Simultaneously with regulations’ mitigation, the US Department of Energy has raised its forecast for US coal production this year by 6%.

    “The lifting of “green energy” subsidies in the US shows that unlike the European Union this country is coming back to a pragmatic policy. This has already led to the fact that the cost of electricity in Europe today is 5 times higher than in the US,” the CEO of Rosneft said at the Energy Panel at the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: US Oil Production at Current Prices Peaks – Sechin

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

    US oil production at current prices has probably reached its peak, Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin said at the Energy Panel of the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

    Delivering a keynote speech, the CEO called the energy policy initially announced by the new US administration promising. However, most of these goals have not yet been achieved: tariff wars have led to a drop in oil prices, while taxes for the oil industry remain at the same level and interest rates have not been reduced. Given this backdrop, the number of active drilling rigs has fallen 9% to 439 over the past two months and oil production growth has stalled. In less than a year, the U.S. Department of Energy has lowered its forecast for U.S. oil production by the end of 2025 by 400 thousand barrels per day.

    “At current prices, the USA oil production appears to have peaked,” Sechin said, noting that Diamondback Energy and ConocoPhillips recently voiced this opinion. And Liberty Energy, an oilfield services company founded by U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright, expects a significant slowdown in drilling activity in the second half of this year, which should lead to a reduction in the U.S. drilling fleet by about 10% more. “Not surprisingly, against this backdrop, many shale players have already started cutting investments,” said Rosneft’s CEO.

    He noted that the sharp drop in oil prices this year has already led to a revision of investment plans. According to the IEA’s latest estimate, this year, for the first time in five years, global investments in oil exploration and production will drop by 6%, while in the U.S. the drop will amount to about 10%.  “I think this is just the beginning,” the CEO of Rosneft remarked.

    “The new head of the US Treasury Department, Scott Bessent, has repeatedly stated that the success of Trump’s second presidential term requires oil production growth in the US in the amount of three million barrels per day. This is part of a so-called “3-3-3 Plan” which also envisages cutting the US budget deficit down to 3% of GDP and reaching 3% of GDP increase,” Igor Sechin reminded.

    The CEO of the Company also asks the question, what difference does it make for the US market where these barrels will come from? “Quite possibly, those may be barrels produced in OPEC+ countries. Since late last year the alliance has consistently reiterated the need to ramp up production due to changes in consumption,” Sechin said.

    The CEO also noted that in addition to the interest of states, the interests of shareholders should be taken into account. Low oil prices in the current period do not allow many companies to maintain the same level of dividend payments and share buybacks, said the CEO of Rosneft. According to Rystad Energy experts, which Sechin cited, if the oil majors maintain their payments to shareholders, they will have to almost completely abandon investments or significantly increase their debt as early as this year.

    “The fall in prices has already started to affect the major players. BP and Chevron will reduce share buybacks by almost 60% and 30%, respectively , while Aramco has to build up debt to be able to pay dividends,” the CEO said.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: OPEC+ Decision on Production Growth Justified, Oil Reserves at Minimum Level – Rosneft CEO

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

    Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin called decision by OPEC+ to forcefully increase oil production justified and far-sighted.

    During his keynote speech at the Energy Panel of the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Sechin noted that the announced increase in production since May this year is three times higher than the alliance’s original plan. In addition, the entire OPEC+ production increase could be pushed back a year ahead of plan.

    “The decision of OPEC leaders to boost production appears today a very forward-looking and, a justified one from the market standpoint, given the consumers’ interest in light of uncertainty pertaining to the scope of the Iran-Israel conflict,” the CEO said.

    At the same time, Sechin noted, “Despite the announced production growth, there can be no question of an oil excess in the market in the long run” as “world oil reserves are now at their lowest levels in five years”.

    “Low oil prices suit consumers in the US, where the inflation-adjusted price of gasoline has already returned to 2019 levels. It is no coincidence that this is happening against the backdrop of the White House’s intensified Middle East policy and the conclusion of a number of agreements with key countries in the region”, – said the CEO of Rosneft.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Rosneft CEO Explains EU Attempts to Lower Price Cap on Russian Oil

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

    The European Union seeks to increase the efficiency of oil purchases from Russia when it tries to push the reduction of the price cap on Russian oil, Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin said at the Energy Panel at the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

    During his keynote speech, the Company’s CEO noted that the European Union continues to attempt forcing down the price cap on Russian oil to $45 per barrel.

    “I believe that the real purpose of this is the EU’s desire to increase the efficiency of its purchasing from Russia, not to reduce Russian budget revenues, as was publicly declared. Figures confirm this: according to Western experts, since the beginning of 2023, Europe has purchased more than 20 billion euros worth of Russian oil, thus becoming the fourth largest buyer,” Sechin said.

    However, he believes it is obvious that the U.S. will not agree to lower the price ceiling because it would negatively affect the profitability of U.S. oil exports.

    The CEO of Rosneft separately noted the situation in Saudi Arabia, saying that imports of Russian dark oil products after the start of sanctions restrictions allow the kingdom to effectively meet the feedstock needs of its energy industry without affecting oil exports. The volume of fuel oil and vacuum gasoil supplied to the country from Russia over the past 12 months is more than six times higher than four years ago.

    According to Sechin, Indian refiners are using a similar approach today. India, the second-largest buyer of Russian oil, has nearly doubled its exports of oil products to Europe over the past three years.

    “Many producing countries need an oil price much higher than current levels to balance their budgets. Thus, according to IMF calculations, in 2025 this price is more than $90 per barrel for Saudi Arabia’s budget,” Sechin summarized.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Sechin Names Russia, Venezuela, Iran as Key Players to Ensure Global Energy Security

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

    Russia, Venezuela and Iran are key players in the energy market and global energy security directly depends on their supply, Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin said at the Energy Panel at the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

    “Russia, Venezuela and Iran are key players in the energy market, and global energy security directly depends on their supply. These countries account for one-third of the global liquid hydrocarbons reserves and 15% of the global production. Without their resource base, it is impossible to facilitate the transition to the new landscape of the global energy industry,” the CEO said. 

    At the same time, according to Sechin, Russia’s real contribution to the Global Economy is proportional to its share in the global resource balance. 

    “Our country’s share in global hydrocarbon exports is about 15%. However, the Russian resource base is not only hydrocarbons, but also metals. Russia’s share in gold mining is about 10%, and in the mining of such metals as high-grade nickel and palladium it reaches 20% and 40% respectively,” the CEO said.

    Rosneft CEO also noted that Russia has about 10% of the world’s reserves of rare-earth metals, without which it is impossible to develop modern technologies.

    “In view of unprecedented amount of coverage in foreign media alleging imminent consolidation of assets in the Russian oil industry with a direct hint on Rosneft’s intention to take over the main players in the domestic oil domain, we believe it necessary to bring a message forward.

    Your efforts have been a complete success. Igor Sechin’s insidious intentions to take over the assets the Company has not any need for have been thwarted solely by your efforts. There is a small problem though, with the alleged intentions having nothing to do with reality and not following any reasonable business logic, but them being, according to the vocabulary of some well-known authorities, an attempt to “divert attention to a false flag subject” from “eligible subject”, apparently known to you – quite likely a manifestation of an alternative to “Evil Sechin”.

    Should the Plan B come to fruition, it would be desirable to consider a possibility of compensating the moral damage to the unfortunate victims of self-serving scheming on behalf of the players in this exciting PR campaign.

    * Revised due to completion of the 2022–2023 acquisition price allocation in 2023.

    Igor Sechin, Chairman of the Management Board and Chief Executive Officer of Rosneft said:

    “Due to the Russian Government’s decisions to cap oil production in addition to the quotas set by the OPEC+ agreement, Rosneft’s operating performance in the reporting period was under pressure. In this context, the Company has been taking additional steps to ensure stable financial results as well as aimed at achieving a sustainable corporate business model.

    The key rate increase resulted in the reduced efficiency of refinery modernization projects that require external financing. The outstripping growth of tariffs of natural monopolies and incremental anti-terrorist security costs exerted additional pressure on the refineries’ performance. In order to protect the shareholders’ interests and avoid losses, Rosneft has been considering the need to suspend refinery modernization projects. At the same time, meeting the domestic demand for quality petroleum products remains a priority.

    Continuous changes in the taxation system have a negative impact on the oil industry. In particular, in the reporting period, net income attributable to Rosneft’s shareholders was negatively affected by the income tax rate increase to 25% from 2025. In accordance with IFRS, this resulted in a restatement of a deferred tax with a negative income effect of RUB 0.2 trillion.

    However, efficient execution and improved development parameters of a number of our key projects afforded an opportunity to dramatically reduce the negative effect of these changes on our shareholders.

    The reported net income attributable to Rosneft shareholders was also negatively affected by the exchange rate revaluation of foreign currency liabilities due to the weakening of the national currency. For example, during the third quarter, the ruble weakened against the yuan by more than 10%.

    It is worth pointing out that net income attributable to shareholders adjusted for the non-cash effects mentioned above remained mainly unchanged year-on-year.

    Shareholders’ interests remain one of our key priorities. On November 8, the Board of Directors recommended an interim dividend of RUB 36.47 per share which resulted in the semi-annual dividend yield of 7.6%. In full compliance with the corporate dividend policy, a total of RUB 386.5 bln or 50% of H1 2024 net income is recommended to be distributed as dividends.

    In the context of high stock market volatility and taking into account our shareholders’ rights and interests, the Company has resumed its Share Buyback Program previously approved by the Board of Directors.”

    ESG

    In the reporting period, the Company continued to implement measures to achieve sustainable development goals under the ‘Rosneft-2030: Reliable Energy and Global Energy Transition’ strategy.

    Rosneft applies advanced technologies and state-of-the-art production methods to create a safe working environment and minimize the risk of occupational injuries and occupational illness. In 9M 2024, the Lost Workday Injury Severity (LWIS) improved by 33%.

    In 9M 2024, there were no gas, oil and water shows (release of oil, gas or water to the surface) during drilling operations at Company facilities. As part of efforts to minimize oil and petroleum product spills, measures were taken to replace field pipelines.

    In 9M 2024, as part of the corporate program to eliminate the environmental legacy, the area of contaminated land reduced by 7% and the volume of oily waste – by 12%.

    In October 2024, Rosneft entered the first quartile in the ESG transparency ranking of the Expert RA credit rating agency. The ranking was compiled based on the analysis of public information on the sustainability performance of 124 Russian companies in four main blocks: environment, society, corporate governance and non-financial reporting standards.

    Operating performance

    Exploration and production

    In 9M 2024, Rosneft liquid hydrocarbons production amounted to 138.3 mln tons (3,753 th. bpd). The indicator performance was primarily driven by the production cap in compliance with the decisions of the Russian Government.

    9M 2024 gas production amounted to 67.0 bcm (1,488 th. boepd). Greenfield projects in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District commissioned in 2022 account for over a third of the Company’s gas production.

    As a result, the Company’s 9M 2024 hydrocarbon production amounted to 193.4 mln toe (5,241 th. boepd).

    9M 2024 production drilling footage exceeded 9.1 mln meters. Rosneft commissioned over 2.2 th. new wells, 71% of which were horizontal.

    In 9M 2024, Rosneft conducted 1.2 th. km of 2D seismic and 4.8 th. sq. km of 3D seismic onshore Russia. The Company completed testing of 31 exploratory wells with a success rate of 84%.

    Vostok Oil Project

    As part of the Vostok Oil project, in 9M 2024 the Company completed 0.7 th. linear km of 2D seismic and 0.6 th. sq. km of 3D seismic. Rosneft carried out successful testing of 3 wells with 3 more wells being drilled and 1 more well being tested.

    Pilot development of the Payakha, the Ichemminskoye and the Baikalovskoye fields is in progress: production drilling footage amounted to 64 th. meters, while 10 production wells were completed in 9M 2024.

    Drilling and testing of another high-tech well with the horizontal section of 1,000 meters and 7-stage hydraulic fracturing at the Payakha field resulted in a stable oil flow, which confirms the resource potential of the development targets.

    Work is underway at the ‘Vankor – Payakha – Sever Bay’ trunk oil pipeline. Taking into account local climate patters, preparatory works for pipe laying were carried out during the summer period: more than 24 thousand piles were manufactured and prepared for mounting, over 200 km of the pipeline was welded.

    Construction of logistics infrastructure, building of hydraulic structures, shore reinforcement, expansion of coastal and berthing infrastructure is underway.

    Refining

    9M 2024 refining volume in Russia amounted to 62.6 mln tons.

    The Company has been consistently developing domestic technologies and import substitution. In particular, Rosneft provides Company refineries with proprietary catalysts, which are essential for production of high-quality motor fuel. In 9M 2024, Rosneft produced 1,810 tons of catalysts for hydrotreatment of diesel fuel and gasoline fractions, as well as protective layer catalysts. Rosneft subsidiaries also produced over 133 tons of gasoline reforming catalysts and 272 tons of catalysts for hydrogen production, petrochemicals and adsorbents. 1,002 tons of coked catalysts for hydrotreatment of diesel fuel were regenerated.

    Sustainable supply of high-quality motor fuel to Russian consumers is one of Rosneft’s key priorities. In 9M 2024, the Company sold 32.9 mln tons of petroleum products on the domestic market, including 9.9 mln tons of gasoline and 13.5 mln tons of diesel fuel.

    The Company is an active participant of trading activities at the St. Petersburg International Mercantile Exchange (SPIMEX). In 9M 2024, Rosneft sold 7.3 mln tons of gasoline and diesel fuel on the exchange, which is twice the required volume. The Company’s share in the total volume of exchange sales of gasoline and diesel fuel amounted to 37%.

    Financial performance

    Operating performance and the current macroeconomic environment combined with management decisions determined the trend of the Company’s key financial indicators.

    In 9M 2024, the Company’s revenue1 amounted to RUB 7,645 bln, representing an increase of 15.6% year-on-year on the back of higher oil prices. EBITDA reached RUB 2,321 bln, and the EBITDA margin amounted to 30%.

    In 9M 2024, the unit lifting costs amounted to $2.8/boe.

    9M 2024 net income attributable to Rosneft shareholders amounted to RUB 926 bln, which is 13.9% lower year-on-year driven by lower EBITDA, and higher debt financing rates, as well as non-cash factors, including the exchange rate revaluation of foreign currency liabilities and the effect of changes in the income tax rate.

    9M 2024 capital expenditure amounted to RUB 1,052 bln, which was 15.7% higher year-on-year due to the scheduled implementation of the Company’s investment program. At the same time, Rosneft’s free cash flow2 in the reporting period reached RUB 1,075 bln.

    The net debt/EBITDA ratio at the end of September 2024 amounted to 1.2x. The indicator growth was due to payment of final dividends of RUB 307 bln for 2023, as well as depreciation of the national currency.

    1 Includes revenues from sales and equity share in profits of affiliates and joint ventures
    2 Adjustment for prepayments under long-term oil supply contracts, including accrued interest payments thereon, net change in operations of subsidiary banks, and operations with trading securities.

    CAPEX 1,442 1,297 11.2%
    Adjusted free cash flow 1,295 1,427 (9.3)%

     

    Igor Sechin, Chairman of the Management Board and Chief Executive Officer of Rosneft, said:

    “In the reporting year, the Company operated against the backdrop of oil production cap under the OPEC+ agreement, increased taxation, the natural monopolies tariff rises outstripping inflation, incremental anti-terrorist security costs, growing sanctions pressure, and unprecedented interest rates increases.

    Management focused its efforts on revenue and EBITDA growth, while maintaining unit upstream costs at less than $3/boe, which is in line with our strategic objective, as well as on debt burden reduction. At the end of the year the net financial debt/EBITDA ratio amounted to less than 1.2x.

    Rosneft is the country’s largest taxpayer. In 2024, the total amount of paid taxes and other payments made by the Company to the consolidated budget of the Russian Federation exceeded RUB 6,1 trillion1.This is record high both for the Company and for the whole of the Russian market.

    The net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders is lower as compared to the previous year due to the impact of non-cash factors, the main one being the revaluation of tax liabilities due to the income tax rate increase to 25% from 2025. In accordance with IFRS requirements, this resulted in a restatement of deferred tax with a negative income effect of RUB 0.24 trillion. However, efficient execution and improved development parameters of a number of our key projects afforded an opportunity to dramatically reduce the negative effect of these changes.

    The sizable key rate increase exerted additional pressure on the net income. In particular, the Company’s interest expenses on loans and borrowings increased 1.5 times in 2024. I should note that the Bank of Russia maintains a very high real interest rate in the economy: in the last two years, it has been the highest in the world.

    Taking into account our shareholders’ interests and in full compliance with the dividend policy, in February, the Company paid an interim dividend of RUB 36.47 per share. The Company has been paying dividends consecutively since 1999. The dividend base has remained unchanged since the 2011 dividend, which ensures transparency and predictability of the dividend amount. I am pleased to note that in the last year alone the number of our shareholders increased by almost a third and reached 1.5 million people.

    Taking into account the negative macroeconomic environment, the Company forcibly adjusts its strategy to sustain its fundamental value. In 2024, in order to support its stock prices during the periods of sharp decline, the Company continued its Share Buyback Program previously approved by the Board of Directors. At the end of October – beginning of November 2024, when the Russian stock market hit its local lows, Rosneft successfully bought back about 2.6 mln of its shares at an average price of RUB 443.7. The Company used the same mechanism during 2020, when commodity markets suffered a COVID-pandemic related price crisis. At that time, the Company bought back about 0.76% of its shares at an average price of RUB 347.5. The current stake value exceeds the buyback price by more than 1.5х”.

    Operating performance

    Exploration and production

    FY2024, liquid hydrocarbon production amounted to 184.0 mln tons (3,737 th. bpd) on the back of, primarily, the production cap in compliance with the decisions of the Russian Government.

    In 2024, the Company’s gas production amounted to 87.5 bcm (1,455 th. boepd), maintaining Rosneft’s status as the largest independent gas producer in Russia. Greenfield projects in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District commissioned in 2022 account for over a third of the Company’s gas production.

    As a result, in 2024, the Company’s hydrocarbon production amounted to 255.9 mln toe (5,192 th. boepd).

    In 2024, production drilling footage exceeded 12 mln meters. Rosneft commissioned over 3 th. new wells, horizontal wells accounting for 72% of that amount.

    In 2024, Rosneft conducted 1.2 th. linear km of 2D seismic and 5.3 th. sq. km of 3D seismic onshore Russia. The Company completed testing of 62 exploratory wells with a success rate of 89%.

    In 2024, Rosneft discovered 7 deposits and 97 new hydrocarbon accumulations to the total of 0.2 bln toe under the AB1C1+B2C2 categories of the Russian reserve classification due to the high efficiency of the Company’s exploration activities. As a result, Rosneft’s hydrocarbon reserves under the Russian classification amounted to 21.5 bln toe (AB1C1+B2C2) at the end of 2024.

    Following an audit under the international PRMS classification (Petroleum Resources Management System), the Company’s 2P hydrocarbon reserves amounted to 11.4 bln toe. The 2P reserves replacement ratio exceeds 100%.

    Vostok Oil Project

    As part of the Vostok Oil project, in 2024, the Company completed 0.7 th. linear km of 2D seismic and 0.6 th. sq. km of 3D seismic. Rosneft carried out successful testing of 4 wells, with 1 well being drilled and 3 more wells being tested.

    In the reporting year, the project scope expanded from 52 to 60 license areas, and the resource base under the Russian classification increased to 7.0 bln tons of crude oil.

    The Company continues pilot development of the Payakhskoye, Ichemminskoye and Baikalovskoye fields: in 2024, production drilling footage amounted to 92 th. meters, while 11 production wells were completed. Successful drilling and testing of wells at the Payakhskoye field resulted in transportation of produced oil to the nearby Suzun field.

    Work is underway at the ‘Vankor – Payakha – Sever Bay’ trunk oil pipeline. As of the end of 2024, over 78,000 piles were installed; 359 km of pipeline were laid, including a 119 km long two-piped section. The Company completed laying and leak testing of the main pipeline crossing the Yenisei River, continues laying the backup pipeline.

    The Company completed most of the work on the construction of two cargo berths, as well as a berth for the port fleet at the Sever Bay Port terminal. Construction of the first oil loading berth is underway, and preparatory work for the second one is carried out. Construction of a crude oil delivery and acceptance point and the Suzun oil pumping station is underway. The Company continues with the construction of logistics infrastructure and hydraulic engineering installations, shore reinforcement, and expansion of onshore and berth infrastructure.

    Refining

    In 2024, Rosneft processed 82.6 mln tons of crude oil in Russia.

    Efforts have been made to maintain a high degree of reliability of refining assets and transition to domestic technologies. In particular, Rosneft provides its refineries with proprietary catalysts, which are essential for the production of high-quality motor fuel. In 2024, Rosneft produced more than 2 th. tons of catalysts for hydrotreatment of diesel fuel and gasoline fractions, as well as protective layer catalysts. Rosneft subsidiaries also produced 138 tons of gasoline reforming catalysts and 390 tons of catalysts for hydrogen production, petrochemicals and adsorbents. 1.6 th. tons of coked catalysts for hydrotreatment of diesel fuel were regenerated.

    Stable supply of high-quality motor fuel to Russian consumers is one of Rosneft’s key priorities. In 2024, the Company sold 43.6 mln tons of petroleum products in the domestic market, including 13.1 mln tons of gasoline and 18.1 mln tons of diesel fuel.

    The Company is an active participant of trading activities at the St. Petersburg International Mercantile Exchange (SPIMEX). In the reporting year, Rosneft sold 10.1 mln tons of gasoline and diesel fuel on the exchange, which is twice the required volume.

    Financial performance

    Operating performance and the current macroeconomic environment combined with management solutions determined the dynamics of the Company’s key financial indicators.

    The Company’s revenue2 for 2024 amounted to RUB 10,139 bln, representing an increase of 10.7% year-on-year on the back of higher Urals prices. EBITDA amounted to RUB 3,029 bln with an EBITDA margin of 29.7%.

    The unit upstream liftng costs in 2024 amounted to $2.9/boe.

    FY2024 net income attributable to Rosneft shareholders amounted to RUB 1,084 bln, which was 14.4% lower year-on-year and driven primarily by higher debt financing rates, as well as non-cash factors, including exchange rate revaluation of foreign currency liabilities and the effect of changes in the income tax rate.

    In 2024, capital expenditures amounted to RUB 1,442 bln, which was 11.2% year-on-year higher due to the scheduled implementation of the investment program at Upstream assets. At the same time, free cash flow3 in the reporting period reached RUB 1,295 bln.

    The net debt / EBITDA ratio at the end of 2024 remained unchanged in comparison with the end of Q3 2024, amounting to 1.2x, despite new negative macroeconomic factors.

    ESG

    Based on 2024 results, Rosneft reaffirmed its leading positions in sustainable development as well as high quality of information disclosure.

    The Company once again became a constituent of the Moscow Exchange – RAEX “ESG Balanced” Index with the best performance among Russian oil and gas companies. Rosneft became the only Russian oil and gas company with an AA ESG-rating assigned by RAEX for its “very high” level of ESG risk and opportunity management, with Rosneft governance rating at the highest AAA level.

    As a result of RAEX research, Rosneft was recognized as a leader of efficient management of water resources, becoming the only Russian oil and gas company among the top-10 rating participants with the highest scores in prudent water consumption, as well as in the quality of corporate policies and programs related to water consumption. The share of recycled and reused water at Rosneft production facilities consistently has exceeded 90% for 10 years.

    Moreover, Rosneft became the only Russian oil and gas company with the highest A+ rating “Leader of Corporate ESG Practices in the Russian Federation” from the Corporate Development Agency “Da-strategy”.

    In the reporting period, the Company proceeded with activities aimed at achieving sustainable development goals under the ‘Rosneft-2030: Reliable Energy and Global Energy Transition’ strategy.

    Rosneft applies advanced technologies and state-of-the-art production methods to create a safe working environment and minimize the risk of occupational injuries and occupational illnesses. In 2024, the Lost Workday Injury Severity (LWIS) went down by 23%.

    In 2024, there were no gas, oil and water shows (release of oil, gas or water to the surface) during well drilling operations at Rosneft facilities. The Company continued with pipeline replacement as part of its efforts to minimize oil and petroleum product spills.

    In 2024, Rosneft reduced the area of contaminated land by 9%, and the volume of oily waste – by 11% under the corporate program for the elimination of environmental legacy. In particular, the Company completed execution of a large-scale remediation program of legacy lands harmed during the Soviet years at the Samotlor oil field. Biological soil productivity was restored at the area of more than 2.2 th. hectares.

    1 Excluding the reimbursement of the excise duty on crude oil, which represents compensation for oil companies’ losses from motor fuels domestic price controls and refinery modernization costs.
    2 Includes sales revenue and income from associated organizations and joint ventures.
    3 Adjusted for prepayments under long-term oil supply contracts, including accrued interest payments thereon, net change in operations of subsidiary banks, and operations with trading securities.

    • GAS PRODUCTION TOTALLED 20.2 BCM
    • EBITDA AMOUNTED TO RUB 598 BLN
    • NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO ROSNEFT SHAREHOLDERS INCREASED TO RUB 170 BLN
    • UPSTREAM LIFTING COSTS AMOUNTED TO $3/BOE

    Rosneft Oil Company (hereinafter – Rosneft, the Company) publishes its results for Q1 2025, prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

      Q1
    2025
    Q4
    2024
    % change

    Net income attributable to Rosneft shareholders 170 158 7.6%
    Capex 382 390 (2.1)%
    Costs and expenditures 1,927 2,038 (5.4)%

    Igor Sechin, Chairman of the Management Board and Chief Executive Officer of Rosneft, noted:

    “In the reporting period, the Company operated in the context of continuous deterioration of the macroeconomic environment that included lower prices and wider discounts for Russia’s Urals crude oil, new sanction restrictions, as well as a stronger ruble.

    The Bank of Russia independently sets the exchange rate of the national currency, considering, primarily, the realities of the financial system. The use of such exchange rate thus does not take into account the economic conditions of the Company’s operations leading to incremental costs associated with the calculation of the tax base, currency conversion, understating the value of oil in rubles and so on.

    In the first quarter of 2025, the Company’s EBITDA was under the additional pressure from rising transportation expenses due to the tariff indexation by the natural monopolies. For example, Transneft oil transportation tariffs have gone up by 9.9% since January 2025, while petroleum product transportation tariffs and freight railroad transportation expenses have increased by 13.8% since the end of 2024.

    Most natural monopolies tariffs, including even the tariffs imposed by the Russian Post, rise outstripping inflation: since early 2024, the price of sending an ordinary postal card has increased by 20%. Electricity tariffs were raised by 9.1% from July 2024 and are scheduled to be indexed by another 11.6% in July 2025.

    Moreover, in accordance with the updated socio-economic development forecast, in 2025, indexation of regulated gas prices, electricity tariffs, and tariffs of grid companies is planned to exceed the forecast inflation rate, accelerating cost inflation.

    In these circumstances, cost control remains our constant priority. In the first quarter of 2025, upstream lifting costs amounted to $3/boe in line with our strategic goal.

    Net income increased quarter-on-quarter but declined year-on-year against the growing key interest rate. For instance, interest expenses on loans and borrowings went up 1.8 times year-on-year.

    Shareholders’ interests remain a top priority for Rosneft. On April 25, the Board of Directors recommended that the General Shareholders Meeting make a resolution on paying a final dividend of RUB 14.68 per share. In this way, the total amount of dividends attributable to shareholders and based on last year results will amount to RUB 51.15 per share”.

    Operating Performance

    Exploration and Production

    In Q1 2025, liquid hydrocarbon production amounted to 44.6 mln tons (3,681 th. bpd) on the back of challenging weather conditions in Central Russia, and oil production cap in compliance with the decisions of the Russian Government.

    In Q1 2025, the Company’s gas production amounted to 20.2 bcm (1,366 th. boe/day). Greenfield projects in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District commissioned in 2022 account for around a third of the Company’s gas production.

    As a result, in Q1 2025, the Company’s hydrocarbon production amounted to 61.2 mln toe (5,047 th. boe/day).

    In Q1 2025, production drilling footage exceeded 2.8 mln meters. Rosneft commissioned over 0.6 th. new wells with horizontal wells accounting for 76% of that amount.

    Vostok Oil Project

    The Company continues pilot development of the Payakhskoye, Ichemminskoye and Baikalovskoye fields: in Q1 2025, production drilling footage exceeded 30,000 meters, while 4 production wells were completed. The Company launched pilot production at the Payakhskoye and Ichemminskoye fields with produced oil transported by trucks.

    Work is underway at the Vankor – Payakha – Sever Bay trunk oil pipeline. As of the end of Q1 2025, 104,000 piles were installed, about 450 km of the pipeline were laid, including a 171 km long two-piped section. Most of the work on laying the backup pipeline crossing the Yenisei River was completed.

    The Company completed most of the work on the construction of two cargo berths and a berth for the port fleet at the Sever Bay Port terminal. Construction of the first oil loading berth is in progress as well as preparatory work for the second berth. Construction of a crude delivery and acceptance point at Sever Bay Port terminal and the Suzun oil pumping station is underway. The Company continues the construction of logistics infrastructure and hydraulic engineering installations, shore reinforcement, and expansion of onshore and berth infrastructure.

    Refining

    In Q1 2025, the refining volumes amounted to 19.5 mln tons, demonstrating a quarter-on-quarter decrease. The refining volume trend is attributable to optimization of refinery utilization in view of the current pricing environment and demand, and the need for maintenance and repair works. The refining depth increased to 75.9%, while the light product yields reached 59.9%.

    Sustainable supply of high-quality motor fuel to Russian consumers is one of Rosneft key priorities. In Q1 2025, the Company sold 9.8 mln tons of petroleum products on the domestic market, including 3.2 mln tons of gasoline and 3.8 mln tons of diesel fuel. 

    The Company is an active trader at the St. Petersburg International Mercantile Exchange (SPIMEX). In the reporting period, Rosneft sold 2.2 mln tons of gasoline and diesel fuel on the exchange that is 1.7 times higher than the required volume.

    Financial Performance

    Operating performance and the current macroeconomic environment combined with management solutions determined the dynamics of the Company’s key financial indicators.

    In Q1 2025, the Company’s revenue1 amounted to RUB 2,283 bln, down 8.5% quarter-on-quarter against lower Urals prices in rubles. At the same time, the rate of costs savings and expense reductions lagged behind the revenue dynamics, with one of the reasons being indexation of tariffs imposed by the natural monopolies. As a result, Q1 2025 EBITDA decreased to RUB 598 bln, with an EBITDA margin of 26%.

    In Q1 2025, unit upstream lifting costs amounted to $3/boe.

    In Q1 2025, net income attributable to Rosneft shareholders grew quarter-on-quarter, reaching RUB 170 bln.

    In Q1 2025, capital expenditure amounted to RUB 382 bln due to the scheduled implementation of the investment program mainly at Upstream assets.

    As of the end of Q1 2025, the net debt / EBITDA ratio amounted to 1.36x that is significantly below the minimum covenant under the loan agreements.

    ESG

    In the reporting period, the Company proceeded with activities aimed at achieving sustainable development goals under the ‘Rosneft-2030’ strategy.

    Rosneft applies advanced technologies and state-of-the-art production methods to create a safe working environment and minimize the risk of occupational injuries and occupational illnesses. In Q1 2025, the Lost Workday Injury Severity (LWIS) went down by 68%.

    Incident prevention measures resulted in a lower number of process safety events at the Company subsidiaries in Q1 2025. In particular, the frequency of incidents related to loss of containment of equipment with severe consequences of Tier 1 (PSER-1) reduced by 13% against Q1 2024, while the frequency of Tier 2 incidents (PSER-2) decreased by 19%.

    In the reporting period, no oil, gas or water shows (release of oil, gas or water to the surface) were registered during well drilling operations at the Company sites. The Company continued with pipeline replacement as part of its efforts to minimize oil and petroleum product spills.

    The Company leadership in sustainable development received independent external recognition. In April 2025, Rosneft became one of the leaders in the ESG ranking  for the quality of personnel management according to RAEX, Russia’s largest non-credit agency.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Sechin Compares ‘Green’ Energy Transition to Utopian Ideas

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

    Igor Sechin, CEO of Rosneft, compared the “green” energy transition to utopian ideas. According to him, over the last ten years, the cumulative costs of the energy transition have reached 10 trillion dollars, while over the same period the share of solar and wind energy in the global energy balance increased by only 4 p.p. to 6%.

     “According to the IEA, this year alone, the world is investing over $2 trillion in the development of so-called “clean” energy. This is twice as much as investments in fossil fuels, which still account for nearly 80% of global energy consumption,” said the CEO of Rosneft.

    Igor Sechin also emphasized that even a doubling of investments will not give the desired result. According to experts, achieving zero emissions by 2050 requires more than 180 trillion dollars in investments, which means that on average more than seven trillion dollars per year will have to be spent. “as Talleyrand once said: Everything that is excessive is insignificant,” the Company’s CEO remarked.

    Another important point is that the transition to a new type of fuel will require considerable time. “Besides this, regulators in different countries need to develop unified technical standards for new energy sources, providing their universalization and fast adaptation to any market. This is not a simple task,” Igor Sechin concluded.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: ‘Net Zero’ Concept Actually Offers Mankind Energy Regression – Igor Sechin

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

    Proponents of the “net zero” concept are leading humanity to energy regression, said Igor Sechin, Chief Executive Officer of Rosneft, in his report “Odyssey of The Global Economy in Search of The Golden Fleece. The New Landscape of Global Energy”.

    During his speech at the Energy Panel of the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, the CEO of the Company noted that every time mankind switched to a new type of fuel, the efficiency of the energy system increased and its capabilities expanded. “This was due to the fact that the new energy source usually had a higher energy flux density,” Sechin added.

    He recalled that the outstanding scientist Pyotr Kapitsa proved that energy flux density is a key characteristic of any energy source. “By this indicator, such types of fossil fuels as coal (135.1 W/m2), oil (195 W/m2) and gas (482 W/m2), well as nuclear energy (241 W/m2) are far ahead of both solar (6.6 W/m2) and wind energy (1.8 W/m2). Thus, the concept of ‘net zero’ actually crosses out centuries of progressive development of society, offering mankind an energy regression”, – said the CEO of Rosneft.

    He stressed that European politicians lack the courage to publicly recognize this fact. “Their blind faith in the ‘green’ transition already resembles an addiction. As one of the classics of French literature aptly put: ‘A red nose is a sign of constancy of character’,” Igor Sechin emphasized.

    “Clearly, the integration of renewables requires a profound transformation of infrastructure, the scale of which is underestimated. The IEA estimates that global investment in grid development is two and a half times behind investment in generation,” he concluded.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Sechin Points Out Lack of Scientific Basis for Climate Alarmism

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

    From a scientific point of view, the large-scale introduction of RES will not have the expected effect on the climate. The refusal of the main initiators of the climate agenda from its implementation and the termination of preferential financing of “green” projects is confirmed by objective conclusions of a number of scientists. This was stated by Igor Sechin, Chief Executive Officer of Rosneft, during the Energy Panel of the XXVIII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

    Sechin noted that the whole concept of “net zero” is based on the assumption of climate destruction due to the growing concentration of carbon dioxide. However, recent studies by Western experts have confirmed earlier conclusions by Nobel laureate John Clauser about the dominant influence of clouds on climate processes. “Even a slight decrease in cloud cover at altitudes below 2,000 meters can increase solar heating of the Earth’s surface by a few per cent. This effect is several times greater than the effect that doubling the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would have on climate,” said the CEO of Rosneft.

    According to the conclusions of American physicists Richard Lindzen and William Happer, achieving “net zero” in the U.S. by 2050 will avoid a temperature rise of only two hundredths of a degree Fahrenheit, and worldwide – only thirteen hundredths of a degree. The effect looks obviously disproportionate to the amount of costs required, Igor Sechin emphasized.

    He also noted the ambiguity of the thesis about the reduction of the ice cover, which is often used by supporters of the theory of the “green” transition. Recent studies by Chinese scientists have shown that from 2021 to 2023 in Antarctica there was a significant increase in ice mass, 108 gigatons annually.

    The CEO of Rosneft believes that the development of RES should be based on time-tested traditional energy sources in order not to undermine global energy security. Historically, the energy transition has always been the result of growing inter-fuel competition based on the principle of the greatest efficiency. Therefore, today, coal remains the largest source of electricity in the world and the second largest source of energy with a 25% share of the global energy mix.

     “Global demand for the fuel set a new record of 8.8 billion tons last year and international agencies have once again been forced to revise expectations for peak demand,” Sechin summarized. Despite growing global concern over global warming, global coal consumption has grown by 75% since the Kyoto Protocol was signed in 1997 and by almost 15% since the Paris Agreement was signed in 2015.
