Denis Manturov and Alexander Novak chaired a meeting of the Coordinating Council for Import Substitution of Oil and Gas Equipment at REW-2025.

As part of the VIII International Forum "Russian Energy Week," First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov and Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak chaired a meeting of the Coordinating Council for Import Substitution of Oil and Gas Equipment under the Government Commission on Import Substitution, which brought together the heads of all key companies in the industry and interested government agencies, as well as the heads of constituent entities of the Russian Federation.

Key topics included the implementation of roadmaps for seven import substitution areas, ensuring the technological sovereignty of the fuel and energy sector, and supporting large-scale infrastructure projects in the face of external challenges.

Opening the coordinating council, Denis Manturov noted that tangible results have already been achieved across many industry objectives. "Based on the first half of the year, oil and gas equipment production increased by 8%. This positive trend is due to the completion of previously supported R&D projects and the commercialization of the resulting prototypes, as well as the launch of new developments," the First Deputy Prime Minister stated.

One of the key factors in the industry's further innovative development, as Denis Manturov emphasized, is the implementation of a grant program for "growing" suppliers for large companies. "The Ministry of Industry and Trade will allocate 5 billion rubles to Innopraktika for these purposes over three years. The funds will be used to create oil and gas equipment specified in the heat map of technological deficiencies," explained the First Deputy Prime Minister. He recalled that critical equipment is divided into segments, for which seven agreements have been signed (onshore drilling and production, offshore production, geological exploration, petrochemicals, LNG production, oil and gas refining, and automated process control systems). Their implementation is aimed at achieving 90% technological sovereignty in the oil and gas industry by 2030. This target is enshrined in the national project "New Nuclear and Energy Technologies."

Denis Manturov also addressed the issue of expanding demand for domestic solutions. "It is important to extend the national regime to oilfield service equipment, as well as to establish quotas for subsoil users' use of Russian products for exploration and drilling," the First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

In his opening remarks, Alexander Novak noted that in recent years, the Russian fuel and energy sector, despite unprecedented constraints, has not only addressed the issue of replacing foreign technologies but also continues to actively develop new production capacities.

"The key objective is not only the creation of innovative equipment but also the maintenance of existing equipment. This is essential for achieving the goal of ensuring the technological sovereignty of the fuel and energy sector, as set by the President of the Russian Federation. The Coordination Council is an effective tool for systematizing and coordinating multi-level work on import substitution of oil and gas equipment," emphasized Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak.
