The Oil and Gas Industry and the Putin's Energy Project
Publication date: August 2007
Price: 399 Euro
President Vladimir Putin has pledged not to run for the third consecutive
presidency. However, it is obvious that he will not disappear from the Russian politics
and economics. What will Putin take up after he leaves the Kremlin? One of the possible
scenarios is a job in the energy sector. This is an interesting, not too confusing and
promising field. Oil and gas are the Russia's main cards and possibly the Putin's key to
the global hydrocarbon market. Hence is the big significance of the Putin's energy
project.
It is possible that Putin intends to establish an energy platform for himself before
he has to go and minimize the risk of getting kicked down after the next presidential
election. Hiring former European politicians, Putin understands perfectly that the "life
after presidency" will depend on the ability to control significant economic assets. How
does he see the industry after his presidency expires? What will be his role in the oil and
gas industry? The new research by the Energy Security Fund tries to give answers to
these questions.
The research studies the possible scenarios of the industry development "after
Putin":
- Establishment of an energy mega corporation for Putin to run. Possibilities of state companies Gazprom and Rosneft merger. Associated political risks. The possibility that the union will also take over Transneft, Sovkomflot, and Novoship. The fate of private oil companies.
- Mechanical scenario of the Fuel & Energy Industry development. Putin remains in politics, Gazprom and Rosneft continue bloating. The two corporations are running out of opportunities for growth and their interests may collide.
- Putin's opportunities to become chief of a multinational energy business. Putin and the "Gas OPEC." The possibility of an alliance between Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan.
