Verkhnechonskneftegaz, a subsidiary of Rosneft's oil and gas production complex, continues to restore forests in the Irkutsk region.
In 2025, the company planted over 1 million Siberian pine seedlings on 540 hectares in the Irkutsk and Kirov forestries, which are part of the Baikal Natural Territory, as well as in the Kuytinsky forestry in the Irkutsk Region. The volume of seedlings planted was seven times greater than in the previous five years.
Preserving the environment for future generations is one of Rosneft's key operating principles. The company and its subsidiaries are committed to achieving leadership in minimizing environmental impact, improving the eco-efficiency of production, and preserving ecosystems.
Siberian pine seedlings are grown in specialized greenhouses equipped with climate control and an automatic irrigation system. Seedling survival rates in these conditions are high—over 90%. Before planting, the seedlings are over 10 cm tall, with a root collar over 2 mm in diameter. Each seedling has uniform foliage throughout the crown and a straight trunk with a single crown. Needle color is also regulated; it should be bright green or emerald.
