Documents signed to create cutting-edge technologies and equipment for field exploration and development

A number of documents were signed today with Russian companies at the St. Petersburg International Gas Forum 2023 to create cutting-edge technologies and equipment for the geological exploration and development of hydrocarbon fields.

An Agreement of Cooperation and a Roadmap were signed by Alexey Miller, Chairman of the Gazprom Management Committee, and Yan Novikov, Director General of the Almaz-Antey Corporation.

Almaz-Antey Air and Space Defense Corporation is Gazprom's strategic partner. The Corporation systematically creates domestic cutting-edge technologies and equipment for their use at the facilities of Gazprom.

The parties continue to expand the scope of their interaction. For instance, pursuant to the documents signed, Almaz-Antey will elaborate the matters related to the design development and manufacture of high-tech equipment and the systems for its installation and maintenance for even more efficient production of gas at Gazprom's fields.

A number of documents were signed in the presence of Alexey Miller.

A Roadmap was signed by Gazprom, Gazprom Nedra and Gazprom Invest. The purpose of the document is to further increase the efficiency and volume of seismic surveys performed at the fields of Gazprom.

It is planned that the parties will test at one of the Company's facilities a promising domestic cable-free telemetry system for seismic data registration. 

A Coordination Agreement was signed between Gazprom and TNG-Group. The parties are interested in developing a technology of bottom cable systems for performing 4D seismic monitoring during offshore field development.

Five roadmaps were signed by Gazprom, Gazprom Shelfproject and Gazprom Invest. The documents envisage the advancement of technologies for offshore oil & gas field prospecting, exploration and development, and aim to establish the domestic production of relevant equipment and materials.

An Agreement of Cooperation was signed between Gazprom and Gazprombank with regard to possible involvement of the bank in addressing Gazprom's tasks during the implementation of the Company's investment projects.
