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.
