Rosneft Wins ‘Company of the Year’ Award of RBC Media Holding

Rosneft won the ‘Company of the Year – 2013’ National Award in the Oil and Gas Industry nomination. Traditionally, the winners were determined by an expert board consisting of prominent economists, businessmen, political and public figures.

The ‘Company of the Year’ award sponsored by RBC media holding was held for the 15th time. Every year, this prestigious award sums up the business results of the year and distinguishes the best Russian companies and enterprises with an impeccable reputation, sustainable market positioning and high performance in sectors such as industry, finance and services.

First Vice President of Rosneft Eric Liron received the award on behalf of the Company. At the awarding ceremony, Mr. Liron stressed that 2013 could be confidently called “the year of Rosneft”. The Company closed the deal to acquire a 100-percent stake in TNK-BP from its former shareholders. The integration of the TNK-BP assets allowed Rosneft to achieve considerable synergies in exploration, production and refining, increase the scale of the Company’s gas business, streamline the supply chains and sales channels.

“We are proud to see that every year Rosneft wins this prestigious award, which is proof of our commitment to the highest international standards of business conduct. We wish the award organizers every success and believe that our work contributes to the establishment of an unbiased evaluation system of the Russian businesses and the promotion of a positive image of Russian companies both in this country and globally”, said the First Vice President of the Company.

Last year, Rosneft also won this award in the Oil Production nomination. The ‘Company of the Year 2013’ awarding ceremony was held in Moscow on December 11, 2013. The ceremony was attended by representatives of the authorities and top persons of the business, social and cultural elite of Russia.
