Congratulations on New Year and Christmas
Release
On behalf of the Gazprom Management Committee and my personal behalf, I would like to congratulate you on New Year and Christmas!
The expiring year was rather difficult for the global and national economy. Nevertheless, Gazprom demonstrated high reliability, sufficient flexibility and ability to promptly respond to market challenges in the environment of the global financial and economic crisis.
Bringing onstream Russia’s first LNG plant, launching LNG deliveries to foreign markets, active efforts targeted at executing strategically important projects: the Nord Stream and the South Stream gas export pipelines, intensive development of Russian gas trunklines, natural gas supply to hundreds of population centers, as well as substantial measures to create the gas industry in Eastern Russia – these are Gazprom’s key operating highlights over the expiring year.
The Company steadily keeps establishing itself on the domestic and global markets and successfully advances towards the leadership position among global energy companies.
We bear enormous responsibility as Gazprom ensures Russia’s energy security, socio-economic development and, therefore, the wellbeing of citizens.
Let the coming year bring the fulfillment of your most daring plans and ideas. I wish you and your beloved ones robust health, happiness and wellbeing!
Happy New Year and Merry Christmas!
Alexey Miller, Chairman of Gazprom's Management Committee
