Rosneft backed the first phase of a major scientific study examining valuable fish species in the Yenisei River. The Taimyr Peninsula expedition assembled leading researchers from the Lomonosov Moscow State University Centre for Marine Research, the Murmansk Marine Biological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and Rosneft’s Arctic Research Centre. The research forms part of the Сompany’s Tamura environmental programme.

The Tamura programme, launched in 2024, aims to update information on the status of key animal species in the Far North. Scientists are studying the Kara subpopulation of polar bears, wild reindeer and valuable species of birds and fish in western Taymyr. The programme will run until 2027.

The initial research phase focused on ichthyofauna and included assessments of key fish populations and the ecological conditions within their habitats.  Scientists surveyed more than 600 kilometres of the Yenisei estuary, covering major tributaries including the Bolshaya Kheta, Pelyatka, Dudinka, Tanalau, and Muksunikha.

The team conducted biological analysis aboard the research vessel’s laboratory, examining muksun, Siberian whitefish, Arctic cisco, and vendace. Researchers recorded weight and size measurements whilst studying feeding behaviour.  Research locations were selected following a review of ichthyological and hydrobiological studies published over the past 90 years.

Laboratory analysis of the samples will provide data on age distribution across fish populations in the Yenisei estuary, alongside further insights into feeding patterns. The scientists will also conduct chemical analysis of water and sediment samples collected from fish habitats.

The second stage of the research is planned for 2026. The scientists will focus on assessing the status of fish populations in the region during different periods of their life cycles, including feeding and spawning. The research will also include biological analysis of the most common and valuable fish species in the Yenisei, such as muksun, broad whitefish, and nelma.

Rosneft pays special attention to biodiversity conservation, implementing the most extensive Arctic research programme since Soviet times. Over the past 13 years, more than 60 expeditions have been carried out to study the hydrometeorological, geological and biological features of the region. This has resulted in a unique collection of information on the climate, nature and wildlife of the Arctic. It has been the source of a unique body of information on Arctic climate, nature and wildlife.

Researchers at Rosneft’s Ufa-based scientific institute have developed digital information models for ROSPAN INTERNATIONAL gas fields using the company’s RN-KIN software platform.

The system consolidates data across all production, service, and community facilities into a single standardized framework.  Current coverage includes over 530 km of operational gas pipelines, 160 km of pipelines in the planning stage, more than 250 km of oil and condensate pipelines, roughly 300 km of high-voltage transmission lines, and over 50 well pads.

These digital models deliver solutions to multiple operational challenges. Primary applications include evaluating available infrastructure capacity, timing the rollout of new assets and efficiency improvements, and running hydraulic simulations for pipeline networks across different time frames.

Topographic features are embedded within the models, allowing specialists to compare site alternatives for future facilities while accounting for construction and development expenses upfront.

Digital information models are transforming how the company approaches design work, long-range planning, project performance reviews, and integrated modeling. Specifically, company specialists can now perform real-time calculations related to power systems, hydrocarbon gathering and treatment, and reservoir pressure maintenance.

Bashneft (Rosneft subsidiary) has begun the trial commercial operation of a pipeline made from composite materials instead of conventional steel. The first pipeline at the Munir Gallyamov field is 10 kilometres long. It has significantly increased the efficiency of oil transportation and improved environmental and industrial safety.

The composite pipeline is the first step in creating a large-scale production infrastructure using innovative developments in Bashkortostan’s new oil-bearing area. The pipeline at the Munir Gallyamov field was installed using the make-up of pipes method. Compared to conventional steel pipe welding, installation speed is increased by five times.

The composite pipeline is non-corrosive, it does not require electrochemical protection, anti-corrosion inhibitors or cleaning. This pipe has a warranted lifespan of up to 50 years, which is three times longer. The composite oil pipeline’s smooth inner surface significantly reduces hydraulic losses during oil pumping. It also eliminates deposits on the pipe walls, which reduce the throughput capacity of steel pipelines over time.

The transition to pipes made from innovative materials will significantly accelerate the construction of new oil pipelines and the exploration of reserves. The project was initiated by specialists from Bashneft-Dobycha, the operator of Bashneft for the development of hydrocarbon fields.

One of Rosneft’s key strategic priorities is to introduce innovations and maximise its technological potential. The Company aims to improve production efficiency by making use of advanced domestic developments and technical solutions.
