Rosneft employees are actively participating in the All-Russian campaign "Water of Russia". Oil workers are holding campaigns in the regions to clean the banks of water bodies from garbage and household waste, and measures to develop natural sources.

Preserving the environment for future generations is an integral part of Rosneft's strategy. The company and its subsidiaries aim to achieve leadership positions in minimizing environmental impact, improving the environmental friendliness of production, and preserving ecosystems.

As part of the Water of Russia campaign in the Samara Region, employees of Samaraneftegaz, Rosneft's largest oil producing enterprise in the region, cleaned up a section of the coastline near the Volga embankment in Samara. The enterprise also provides support to municipalities in restoring and improving the infrastructure of natural springs. Oil workers tidied up the territories of springs and natural springs in the Bezenchuksky, Krasnoyarsk, Kinelsky districts and other natural sites. Volunteers from the enterprises of the Samara production site of Rosneft also regularly participate in the ecological expedition Springs of the Samara Region. The goal of the project is to preserve spring water sources, which play an important role in the ecosystem of the region – from providing the population with clean drinking water and feeding reservoirs to maintaining the overall water balance. Thus, with the participation of representatives of the Novokuibyshevsk Oil Refinery, three natural springs were revived and the territory of several springs in remote settlements was improved.

Volunteers from the Kuibyshev Oil Refinery, together with colleagues from other Rosneft enterprises and activists from the regional movement EcoRavnovesie, cleared 2.5 hectares of the coastline at the confluence of the Volga and Sok rivers of garbage, collected and sent for recycling about five cubic meters of household and current-borne waste – plastic bottles and bags, cans and broken glass.

Employees of the Novokuibyshevsk Petrochemical Company implement various environmental activities to preserve the cleanliness of the Volga banks and islands, local lakes, natural springs, and coastal areas of the Kriushi and Tatyana rivers. In June, the plant workers held an eco-cleanup day on the Volga bank near the village of Granny. Volunteers cleared 2,000 square meters of the coastline and adjacent forest belt of household waste. The petrochemists also care for Lake Berezovoye in Chapayevsk, where the company's volunteers hold an annual environmental run. Employees of the Novokuibyshevsk Oil Refinery and the Novokuibyshevsk Oil and Additives Plant, together with activists of the "Movement of the First," cleared about 6.5 hectares of the Volga coastline of waste.

In the cities of Buzuluk and Sorochinsk in the Orenburg region, volunteers from Orenburgneft, activists from the Movement of the First, and schoolchildren from Rosneft Classes held a joint environmental campaign on the banks of reservoirs. They cleaned up more than 1 hectare of coastal territory, collecting 10 cubic meters of garbage.

In Bashkortostan, workers of the Bashneft-Novoil plant removed household waste from almost 22 km of the coast of Lake Aslikul, the largest in the republic. Volunteers helped reduce the anthropogenic load on the ecosystem of the lake, which is very popular with tourists.

In the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Yugra, RN-Nyaganneftegaz workers cleaned 1.5 hectares of the Nyagan-Yugan River coastline, collecting about three tons of garbage. This is the second environmental action by oil workers on water bodies since the beginning of summer.

In the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, employees of SevKomNeftegaz and the RN-Service branch, together with representatives of organizations in the city of Gubkinsky, took part in a clean-up day on the bank of the Pyaku-Pur River. During the eco-action, 6.8 tons of garbage were collected and more than six kilometers of coastal territory were cleaned.

More than a hundred employees of RN-Uvatneftegaz, Tyumenneftegaz, the corporate scientific center in Tyumen, as well as activists of the Movement of the First, came out for an environmental cleanup day at the largest water body in the Tyumen Region – Lake Andreyevskoye. Volunteers cleaned almost 10 hectares of the shoreline and collected about 2.5 tons of household waste. The participants of the action set up a stand on the shore with information about the water body, as well as rare species of birds and animals living in its vicinity.

In the Leningrad Region, RN-North-West workers carried out a cleanup on the coast of the Gulf of Finland, clearing a section of the coastline of household waste.

Specialists from the Ufa scientific institute "Rosneft" have developed and patented the digital assistant "DataTools", which automates the process of collecting and processing dynamic data on the flow rate and pressure of gas and gas condensate wells.

The functionality of the new software allows determining the reasons for changes in production, such as a decrease in reservoir pressure or deterioration of the hydrodynamic connection between the well and the reservoir. The software shows how the flow rate has changed as a result of one factor or another and forms a rating of gas wells requiring geological and technical measures.

The digital assistant demonstrated high efficiency at one of the Company's key gas condensate fields. Using the developed tool, specialists quickly analyzed about 150 wells and identified the priority ones for inflow intensification work. After the implementation of the measures, the well productivity increased by 3%, which is comparable to repeated hydraulic fracturing of the formation.

Rosneft is the first oil and gas company in Russia that successfully creates software that covers all key oil and gas production processes. The Company's specialists have already developed and implemented 24 unique software products.

Rosneft's capital investments in projects to involve associated petroleum gas (APG) in beneficial use in the period from 2013 to 2024 exceeded 303 billion rubles.

Responsible attitude to the environment is an integral part of the corporate culture and one of the key principles of Rosneft's activities. One of the Company's strategic goals is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Rosneft is implementing a whole range of measures aimed at introducing innovative technologies, increasing the level of industrial safety and caring for the environment.

As part of the implementation of the Investment Gas Program, the Company strives to increase the level of rational use of associated petroleum gas in all regions of its presence. In 2024, Rosneft commissioned 9 new facilities that contribute to achieving this goal: gas injection facilities, power generation, gas preparation and use, as well as gas transportation infrastructure. The program is being implemented in all regions of the Company's presence and promotes the widespread introduction of innovative, energy-saving, "green" technologies in production processes.

When developing new fields, Rosneft, already at the stage of drawing up design technological documents, carries out planning taking into account an integrated approach, providing for all the measures necessary to achieve rational use of associated petroleum gas by a clearly defined deadline.

The Company's specialists are constantly working on developing innovations that allow for the optimization and scaling of the process. For example, in July 2025, Orenburgneft employees (part of Rosneft) patented a technology for reducing the content of hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans in associated petroleum gas (APG). The innovation was implemented at the Vakhitovskaya group of fields of the enterprise, which made it possible to increase the volumes of rational use of APG from 20 to 80 thousand m3 per day. The economic effect from the implementation of the innovation will amount to more than 1 billion rubles within five years.

A significant contribution to reducing the Company's carbon footprint is made by the Rosneft Energy Saving Program, which is developed for a five-year period and updated annually. As a result of its successful implementation in 2024, Rosneft ensured a reduction in absolute greenhouse gas emissions in the amount of 1.1 million tons of CO2-eq.

At the same time, the actual savings of fuel and energy resources amounted to 363 thousand tons of equivalent fuel. By 2030, the implementation of the energy conservation program will reduce emissions by 4.7 million tons of CO2-eq.

Rosneft has been systematically working to preserve biological diversity and replenish the country's aquatic bioresources for over 11 years. In July, the Company's subsidiaries released more than 4.7 million young fish into Russian waters, including species listed in the Red Book.

Together with employees of Rosneft subsidiaries, volunteers from the Movement of the First, students from partner universities and children of employees took part in environmental campaigns to stock water bodies with fish.

Oil workers of Tyumenneftegaz sent 2.12 million muksun fry to the rivers and reservoirs of Siberia, Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha – 1.23 million peled, Kharampurneftegaz – 50 thousand nelma, RN-Purneftegaz – 457 thousand peled, 43 thousand muksun and 2 thousand nelma, SevKomNeftegaz – 357.7 thousand nelma, Angarsk Petrochemical Company – 10 thousand peled, RN-Uvatneftegaz – 2.9 thousand nelma.

Employees of the Novokuibyshevsk Oil Refinery replenished the Volga bioresources with 11 thousand sterlet fry. Almost 9.5 thousand fry of this valuable fish species were released by Samaraneftegaz and 3.3 thousand by the Saratov Oil Refinery.

The rearing and subsequent release of fry were carried out taking into account scientific data on the most favorable conditions for their adaptation in the natural environment and further reproduction.

Preserving the environment for future generations is an integral part of the Rosneft-2030 strategy. The company and its subsidiaries aim to achieve leadership positions in minimizing environmental impact and environmentally friendly production, and are also implementing a number of comprehensive programs to preserve and restore natural resources.

Rosneft employees actively participate in environmental campaigns and promote the development of a culture of rational and responsible consumption of natural resources. Volunteers from the Company's enterprises regularly clean and improve the coastal areas of rivers, lakes and springs, and conduct environmental education classes in educational and preschool institutions.

World Whale and Dolphin Day is celebrated annually on July 23. The date was established to draw humanity's attention to the need to preserve and protect cetaceans and other marine mammals.

Rosneft pays special attention to environmental issues and the preservation of biodiversity. The Company's activities are based on the principle of preserving a favorable environment and biological diversity in all regions of presence. Studying and protecting the population of whales and dolphins is one of the areas of Rosneft's environmental program.

One of the main species that receives close attention is the gray whale of the Okhotsk Sea population. The monitoring program for these whales has been carried out on the north-eastern shelf of Sakhalin Island for almost 30 years. As part of the research, specialists annually conduct a population census, observe the behavior of animals and study their food supply, carry out photo-identification studies, and acoustic monitoring.

Until the 1990s, the Okhotsk Sea gray whale population was considered to be completely exterminated and was classified as a species on the verge of extinction. In 2018, the western gray whale population was classified as endangered, indicating a slow but steady recovery of the Okhotsk subpopulation of gray whales.

In 2019, the Okhotsk Sea populations of gray and Greenland whales were included by the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources in the list of rare and endangered species of wildlife requiring priority measures for restoration and reintroduction. In 2020, the Okhotsk Sea population of gray whales was listed in the Red Book of the Russian Federation.

In addition, the Company conducts environmental monitoring of the Okhotsk-Korean population of gray whales on the north-eastern shelf of Sakhalin Island. Specialists annually perform photo identification, population census, and studies of the food supply and behavior of mammals. The main life period of gray whales in the Sea of Okhotsk is fattening and reproduction, so studying the state of their food supply is one of the most important stages of observations.

As part of the study of the Okhotsk-Korean gray whale population, unique acoustic monitoring is also being conducted, which includes recording and analyzing the level of natural and anthropogenic underwater noise. The research allows us to study the nature of sounds and model their propagation. Acoustic measurements are carried out using autonomous underwater recorders developed specifically for the project.

Rosneft is an active participant in the Interdepartmental Working Group under the Ministry of Natural Resources of the Russian Federation to ensure the conservation of the Okhotsk-Korean population of gray whales. The working group develops proposals for the development of legislation for population management, coordinates the interaction of interested federal and regional executive authorities, the business community, scientific and public organizations.

In 2020, Rosneft, together with the P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, implemented a large-scale project to study and monitor Black Sea dolphins. Based on the results of 3 years of observations, modern up-to-date data were obtained on the number and preferred habitats of these Black Sea cetaceans, and the characteristics of their seasonal distribution. Recommendations for the study and conservation of dolphins were prepared.

Reference:

The gray whale is the only whale species that has mastered bottom feeding. Whales usually scoop up benthos from the bottom along with water, silt and pebbles at a depth of 15-60 m and filter the suspension through their baleen. The gray whale's diet includes up to 70 species of invertebrates, including annelids, bivalves, small crustaceans and young fish.

Gray whales swim slowly – on average 5-8 km/h, which allows marine parasites to cling to the whale's skin and establish their colonies. The total weight of these fellow travelers can reach 180 kg per whale.
