On June 30, 2023, PJSC Gazprom’s annual General Shareholders Meeting, taking into account the interim dividends paid for 1H 2022, resolved not to declare or pay dividends for 2022.
One of Russia’s largest tax payers
The Gazprom Group is among Russia’s largest tax payers. For the reporting year, the Gazprom Group transferred RUB 3,527.6 billion to the Russian budget system.
PJSC Gazprom implements a single tax policy and ensures uniformity in tax law application by the Gazprom Group entities. PJSC Gazprom and the Gazprom Group entities independently determine their tax liabilities and bear responsibility for compliance with applicable tax laws.
Tax Monitoring
Gazprom Group entities continue to join the tax monitoring system, providing tax authorities with access to accounting and tax data in real time using a domestic IT platform.
As part of the Group’s tax management efforts in 2024, more Group entities will transition to tax monitoring. The Gazprom Group will continue working to improve tax efficiency and relevant risk management while also implementing tax support measures for its projects and operations.
For more details on the Gazprom Group’s tax strategy and taxation regulations, see Appendix.
Given developments in the geopolitical environment and unprecedented sanctions from unfriendly states, the Gazprom Group aims to replace imported industrial products with Russian-made alternatives. The Gazprom Group’s import substitution and technological independence policy provides for a continuous reduction in reliance on imported equipment and technologies across the Gazprom Group facilities and an increase in the share of Russian-made equipment and technologies in the Group’s operating and investing activities.
The Gazprom Group is guided by PJSC Gazprom’s Corporate Import Substitution Plan and implements import substitution projects.
Measures to Implement Import Substitution Projects
- Development and implementation of road maps approved by PJSC Gazprom jointly with federal and regional authorities and other organizations;
- interaction with production, engineering and service companies, including under various agreements;
- entering into, and monitoring the performance under, long-term contracts for mass production, supply, maintenance and repairs of import-substituting products against guaranteed supply volumes of upcoming years.
The key areas of focus in import substitution are shaped by the specifics of the gas business and processes of the Gazprom Group’s operations.
The total economic effect of import substitution in the Gazprom Group for 2016–2023 stood at RUB 134.4 billion.
The strongest effect from the 2023 efforts was in production of gas, gas condensate and oil.
In 2023, the Import Substitution and Technological Development Committee of PJSC Gazprom’s Board of Directors held four meetings to discuss matters related to designing and making cutting-edge domestic equipment for the national fuel and energy sector, including equipment for PJSC Gazprom’s LNG projects. Key decisions taken at the meetings are those concerned with the testing of new equipment samples at PJSC Gazprom’s facilities, entering into long-term purchase agreements for certain types of equipment, the need for state support (for certain types of equipment), and PJSC Gazprom’s financing of R&D activities associated with designing and making equipment and machinery in Russia.

Risk Management Measures in Import Substitution
The Gazprom Group manages the risks of reduced technological sovereignty by pursuing a policy of import substitution of the most important products and localizing production facilities to drive technological development across the Gazprom Group. Efforts are underway to monitor sanctions, including the likelihood of new restrictions by the EU, USA and other unfriendly countries against Russia and Russian persons.
For more details on the Gazprom Group’s import substitution regulations, see Appendix.

To make additional products from the multi-component gas from the Chayandinskoye and Kovyktinskoye fields, the Gazprom Group continues construction of the Amur Gas Processing Plant (Amur GPP). As of December 31, 2023, three of the plant’s six production trains and two of the three helium units were already operational. All start-up activities at the process units did not involve any foreign licensors. Helium is one of the most widely used noble gases. With its unique properties, helium is applied in a variety of high-tech industries, including aerospace, nuclear energy, and electronics, as well as metals and mining, and healthcare. Helium made at the Amur GPP has an exceptional purity of 99.9999%. In 2023, the Gazprom Group increased its helium capacity 8 times and shipped about 400 tons of commercial helium.
PJSC Gazprom makes considerable investments in infrastructure across its regions of operation and contributes to the economic development of local communities by creating new jobs.
In the reporting year, PJSC Gazprom went on with its investment program. Actual CAPEX for the year stood at RUB 2,012.44 billion. In 2024, investments under the program are planned at RUB 1,670.2 billion.
The Gazprom Group will continue to increase production capacities of the Yakutia and Irkutsk gas production centers by developing the Chayandinskoye and Kovyktinskoye fields.
The Gazprom Group will be constructing the Power of Siberia gas pipeline, including the Kovykta — Chayanda section, and enhancing the Sakhalin gas production center by developing the Kirinskoye and Yuzhno-Kirinskoye fields, along with expanding the Sakhalin — Khabarovsk — Vladivostok gas trunkline infrastructure.By launching gas compression capacities.
On the Yamal Peninsula, the Group will continue developing the Kharasaveyskoye field and building gas pipelines to transport gas from the field.
In addition, hydrocarbon processing, peak gas balance, and upgrade projects are scheduled for 2024.
Creating a Digital Platform to Manage Investment Projects
The Gazprom Group runs projects to introduce digital technologies at a major scale in terms of both coverage of business processes across Gazprom Group entities and location of end users. In the reporting year, the Gazprom Group continued creating the PJSC Gazprom Unified Digital Platform for Investment Project Management (UDP) with superior functionality. As part of the UDP, all parties involved in the construction process will have access to shared information and management systems covering digital data models and engineering data management, scheduling and network planning, construction control, procurement, investment management, and cost control.
