Rosneft and Krasnoyarsk Territory to Develop Cooperation in the sphere of Domestic Tourism
At the XXVII St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Rosneft and the Tourism Agency of the Krasnoyarsk Territory signed a Memorandum of Cooperation to promote domestic tourism.
The document provides for cooperation to boost the demand for domestic automobile tourism, promote the tourist potential of the region, including improvement of motorway service and Rosneft retail network infrastructure.
The parties plan to undertake a number of actions aimed at improving the comfort of automobile travelers, including motorway service at the Rosneft filling stations.
Development of the motorway service facilities and improvement of the customer services provided at Rosneft filling stations is one of the Company’s priorities. The Company retail network is not only the largest in Russia in terms of geographical coverage and number of filling stations (around 3,000 stations), but also one of the leaders in terms of fuel brand recognition and quality.
Rosneft undertakes a number of measures aimed at creating comfortable conditions for automobile travelers. Earlier, the Company, together with a number of regional authorities, has presented joint tourist routes running through the Rosneft filling stations in the Republic of Karelia, as well as the Tula, Arkhangelsk, and Ulyanovsk Regions, and the key routes between Moscow and Krasnaya Polyana, and between the two capitals.
In addition, the Company has previously signed memoranda of cooperation to promote domestic tourism with the Moscow City Tourism Committee, the government of the Samara Region, the Ministry of culture of the Arkhangelsk Oblast, the Altai Territory Department for Tourism and Resort Development, Tourism Agencies of the Ulyanovsk Region and the Republic of Udmurtia, and the Republic of Bashkortostan.
In 2023, Rosneft launched a special information and service platform “Russian Horizons: Come With Us!”. The special project allows car tourists to choose and plan routes to places of interest using the infrastructure of Rosneft’s network of motorway services and filling stations. The project “Horizons of Russia” has a number of key distinctions thanks to the unique navigation functionality, all interesting locations become stops on the route that a driver may can independently combine and modify at any time during the journey.
The Krasnoyarsk Territory is a strategic region of Rosneft operations. The region is home to the major Group Subsidiaries, including RN-Vankor, Vostsibneftegaz, Slavneft-Krasnoyarskneftegaz, Achinsk Refinery, service, marketing and logistics companies, and filling stations.
Vostok Oil, the flagship oil production project, is being delivered in the north of the region. Low unit production costs and low carbon footprint (only a quarter of the global average for new projects) make Vostok Oil one of the most promising and environmentally friendly oil production projects in the world. Industry experts estimate that the project will increase the annual Russian GDP by 2%.
Rosneft is also implementing a large-scale program in the Krasnoyarsk Territory to support educational institutions that provide comprehensive training courses to skilled workers and engineers for the Vostok Oil Project. Over 400,000 specialists will be engaged at the construction stage alone, and over 130,000 workers will be employed on a long-term basis at the Vostok Oil operational stage. A total of 10,000 people are already working at the project facilities.

Rosneft’s retail network is the largest in the Russian Federation in terms of geographical coverage and number of stations, and the Rosneft brand of petrol stations is one of the leading brands in Russia in terms of recognition and fuel quality.
