Evaluation of Parameters of Russian Oil-and-Gas Sector Development

Abstract

The article presents the results of evaluation of the parameters of the Russian oil-and-gas sector development from the view point of its sustainability under current changes of important internal and external conditions. Parameters evaluation is based on the national optimal model of the analysis and forecast of fiscal flows. As the calculations show the oil-and-gas sector has the potential to develop new projects exclusively on the basis of its own profit. But oil-and-gas production will be much lower than according to any pessimistic forecasts of the sector development. Thus, the approach oriented towards using companies internal financial resources does not allow to reach targets determined by the Energy Strategy of Russia.
