Support for Domestic Producers
The import substitution policy of Gazprom aims to ensure its technological leadership. In the current external and internal political and economic environment, one of the key priorities for the Company’s import substitution efforts has been to provide technological support for the stable operation of its production systems.
Gazprom sets the stage for sourcing Russian-made products at the earliest phases of its investment projects. Technical solutions that minimize the use of imported products and services are incorporated as early as at the design stage.
As regards operation of the existing equipment systems, PJSC Gazprom is actively introducing new technologies for the maintenance of imported equipment, while also consistently replacing imported pieces with domestic alternatives.
The Gazprom Group entities are guided by PJSC Gazprom’s Corporate Import Substitution Plan and implement import substitution projects by:
- developing and bringing to life road maps approved by PJSC Gazprom jointly with federal and regional authorities and other organizations;
- interacting 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.
Measures to Implement Import Substitution Projects
In 2025, Gazprom continued implementing road maps designed to support domestic industrial production, import substitution, and the localization of equipment maintenance. These efforts were coordinated with the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade, Russian industrial organizations, and regional authorities.
As part of this work, the Company reviewed proposals to use high-tech and import-substituting products from local manufacturers at Gazprom facilities. In 2025, 163 such proposals were assessed.
The Company engaged in comprehensive cooperation with industrial organizations across 21 regions of Russia and Belarus. During the reporting year, it updated road maps with the Irkutsk, Tula, Tyumen and Chelyabinsk regions, the Republic of Tatarstan and the Perm Territory, while also signing new road maps with the Arkhangelsk, Kursk and Novosibirsk regions and the Republic of Belarus.

In the reporting year, the economic effect of import substitution stood at RUB 54.2 billion, up 58.4% year-on-year. This growth was supported by the preferential use of domestically produced equipment and other materials. The strongest effect from the 2025 efforts was in production of gas, gas condensate and oil.
In the reporting year, the share of Gazprom Group procurement from Russian businesses in the total volume of procurement came in at 98.2%.

Cooperation with Production, Engineering and Service Companies for Technological Development and Rapid Import Substitution
In 2025, the Gazprom Group took steps to develop, manufacture and deploy import-substituting and high-tech industrial products under several road maps. These efforts were coordinated with Russian industrial and research organizations.
Projects covered the creation and introduction of pipeline valves, heat-exchange, drilling and geophysical equipment, pipe-laying machinery, and metering devices.
To improve cooperation with Russian industrial organizations and advance import substitution, PJSC Gazprom is implementing several digital projects.
- The Group’s contractor portal has an Import Substitution section designed to foster cooperation with domestic manufacturers. The platform enables Russian industrial, service and contracting organizations to publish information about their operations and products, while also giving them an opportunity to learn more about the promising areas of import substitution within the Company. In 2025, the section’s functionality was expanded to include personal accounts for regional ministries of industry and a dedicated subsection on government support measures.
- By leveraging its ITRP information systemIT resource planning information system of PJSC Gazprom., the Company built an Industrial Products subsystem to automate the accounting of imported equipment operated by PJSC Gazprom. In 2025, additional functionality was introduced as part of the subsystem’s development, including analytics and data visualization tools, a database of domestic equipment manufacturers, and databases for technical documentation and localized spare parts, tools and accessories.
High-Tech Facility for Manufacturing Gas Turbines
In 2025, the Gazprom commissioned a high-tech foundry facility in the Tula Region designed to manufacture turbine blades, an essential and one of the most technologically challenging components of industrial, power-generation and marine gas turbines. The Group uses such equipment as part of gas pumping units at gas production and transportation facilities across Russia.
Gazprom Group entities participate in the New Equipment and Technologies for the Oil and Gas Industry federal program under the New Nuclear and Energy Technologies national project. These efforts are part of a road map implemented jointly with the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade and Ministry of Energy. The road map envisages the establishment of dedicated production facilities in Russia and the integration of special-purpose equipment, technologies and materials into investment activities. Progress under the road map is ensured through government support tools.
In 2025, PJSC Gazprom approved the volume of technology products needed for four projects, defined relevant technical requirements, and issued recommendations for projects eligible for government support, while also validating the results of deploying five upgraded technology products in line with the Company’s requirements and target cost parameters.
These initiatives are designed to strengthen the technological sovereignty of Russia, support import substitution, and expand the use of domestically produced equipment in the investment activities of PJSC Gazprom.
Interaction with Non-governmental Development Institutions for the Purpose of Rapid Import Substitution and Technological Development
Openness to Dialog
To support economic development and build an innovation-driven economy, the Russian Government launched a grant program to support projects of technology companies developing import-substituting products for the benefit of major corporate customers in line with the Russian Government resolution. The program’s operator is Engineering and Innovation Support Center.
PJSC Gazprom leads the way in terms of the number of projects supported under this program. By the end of 2025, 20 projects had received recommendations from PJSC Gazprom for grant funding in the total amount of approximately RUB 3.5 billion.

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 Gazprom. The Group continuously monitors restrictions imposed by the EU, the United States and other unfriendly countries against Russia and Russian legal entities and individuals.
The Group implements a wide range of measures to expand access for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to procurement at PJSC Gazprom, its subsidiaries and entities.
