Key issues Natural Gas Production in Russia addresses are:

Evaluation of Russia’s production potential to 2020
Analysis of strategies of Russian gas producing companies
Assessment of gas production capital expenditures needed to meet the growing gas demand locally and on global markets
Analysis of the supply/demand scenarios
Key questions addressed in the study:

What was the dynamics of natural gas production in Russia for the period of 2000-2007
What is the legal and tax regulation of the Russian gas industry’s upstream segment?
What is the production potential of Gazprom and independent gas producers at traditional gas fields up to 2020?
What is Gazprom’s strategy with regard to independent producers?
What are the opportunities for Russian gas producing companies to sustain and increase current production rates?
What capital expenditures are needed for further development of natural gas upstream segment?
What is the calculated price of natural gas coming from different fields at the Russian border and how could it change?
What are the key factors expected to influence natural gas production in Russia?
Natural Gas Production in Russia examines the current status and prospects for gas production by Gazprom’s 17 subsidiaries, affiliated companies and 6 independent gas producers.

The study is unique in providing a cost-plus assessment of supplies from a field to the Russian border for major Russian gas assets forecasted to 2020. Combined with the netbacks for 42 importing countries to the Russian border to 2020 forecasted in the study Russian Gas on Global Markets: Potential, Strategies and Outlook  it completes the picture of Russia’s gas supplies competitive ability on global markets.

Key data in each producing company profile covers:

Current reserves base
Historical production
Transportation routes for gas produced
Production potential to 2020
Capital expenditures for further development
Cost plus assessment from field to current and/or potential exit points at Russian border (for major assets only)
Similarly structured is the examination of new gas fields and provinces:

Yamal Peninsula: Bovanenkovskoye and Kharasaveiskoye fields
Shtokmanovskoye field
Ob-Taz Bay fields
Eastern Siberia fields
Russian Far East fields (including Sakhalin)
Cost plus assessments for some of these regions appear in published research for the first time.

Natural Gas Production in Russia develops two scenarios for gas production in Russia in 2008-2020 based on:

Demand for natural gas in Europe, CIS, North-East Asia, North America
Gazprom’s contracted and supplied export volumes, current and projected
Projected gas prices on export markets
Economic feasibility of developing new fields
Transportation capability for delivering gas from field to local and international consumers
Gas producers’ plans for tapping new fields
The scenarios also take into account forecasts of gas production capital expenditures by Gazprom and other producing companies.

Natural Gas Production in Russia is an essential analytical support tool for:

energy policy-makers
integrated energy companies
gas producers
gas transportation and trading companies
financial and investment institutions
contractors and equipment suppliers
