The Gazprom Corporation is one of the largest players in the Russian and world economy. How is the corporate governance structure organized? In which cities does Gazprom carry out its main activities?

General information about the company

Before considering what is organizational structure"Gazprom", we will study the basic information about the company.

Gazprom is traditionally viewed as a global energy corporation. Its main areas of activity:

Mineral exploration;

Extraction of fuel;

Gas transportation;

Fuel processing and sale.

In addition, the corporation also produces and sells heat and electricity. Gazprom has the world's richest reserves natural gas... The value of the corresponding reserves is about 18% of the world and 72% of the Russian. In turn, if we talk about that, the corporation accounts for about 14% of its global volumes and 14% of Russian ones.

The company is actively developing projects in vast territories - in Yamal, on the Arctic shelf of Russia, in Siberia, on Far East. Settlements whose economies are largely based on capacity, owned by the company Gazprom - Urengoy, Astrakhan, Nadym, and many others. Actually, it can be one of the city-forming in these settlements.

Gazprom has a well-developed transport and industrial infrastructure at its disposal. The company is actively developing processing facilities. Gazprom's capabilities make it possible to almost completely satisfy domestic demand Russian economy in natural gas.

In addition, Gazprom has branches abroad. The activities of these structures are also largely related to the exploration and production of fuel. The corporation supplies gas to both the Russian and foreign markets.

The corporation is one of the key players in the European fuel market. Gazprom's largest projects for the development of fields abroad are being implemented in Venezuela, India and Algeria. The managers of the Russian corporation actively interact with colleagues on a wide range of issues: investment, implementation of joint projects, exchange of experience in the application of technologies for the extraction and delivery of fuel.

In the Russian Federation, Gazprom owns one system gas supply. Its total length exceeds 168 thousand km. In fact, the company is the only producer and exporter of liquefied gas in the Russian Federation.

Gazprom was founded as a public company in 1989. Its turnover during active periods of capitalization was recorded at about 3.9 trillion rubles.

The city where the Gazprom headquarters is located is Moscow. Largest structures corporations are also located in St. Petersburg. It is known that the head office of Gazprom is also planned to be moved to the northern capital in 2018.

history of the company

It will be useful to get acquainted with the main facts from the history of the company's development.

In the middle of the 20th century, a number of large gas fields were discovered by Soviet specialists in Siberia, the Urals, and the Volga region. They began to be quickly mastered, and as a result, in the 1980s, the USSR entered the number largest countries in the world in the field of gas production.

In 1965, the Ministry was established in the USSR gas industry... He was in charge of the exploration of minerals, the extraction of fuel, the implementation of its delivery and sale to consumers. In August 1989, this department was transformed into an economic entity - the Gazprom concern.

In 1993 it was renamed RAO Gazprom. The ownership structure of a corporation has changed significantly over time. So, in the 90s, a significant part of the corporation's shares was sold out within the framework of the privatization mechanism. By 2004, the state owned 38.7% of the shares in Gazprom. Besides, Russian Federation had a majority within the Board of Directors of the company. Subsequently, the state's share was increased to over 50%.

In 2000, the corporation was actively increasing its turnover. In 2008, in terms of capitalization, it was among the top 3 largest global businesses. In 2009, Gazprom launched the first liquefied gas plant in the Russian Federation. The European direction of business was actively developing. Thus, in 2012, the company launched the second branch of the Nord Stream pipeline. Soon, Gazprom officially launched production at one of the largest gas fields - Bovanenkovskoye.

In May 2014, Gazprom and the Chinese corporation CNPC signed a major contract for gas supplies to China. The contract price was $ 400 billion. The agreement is for 30 years.

Company owners

Who is the owner of Gazprom? The corporate ownership structure has the following features.

The main shareholder of the corporation is the Federal Property Management Agency, which in this case represents the state. This department - in fact, the country - owns 38.373% of Gazprom's shares. The next largest shareholder of the corporation is The Bank of New York Mellon. He owns 26.955% valuable papers corporations. Rosneftegaz owns a 10.74% stake in Gazprom. Rosgazifikatsiya has a 0.889% stake in the capital structure of the gas corporation. Other persons own 23.043% of the company's shares.

One way or another, the state owns 50% plus 1 share of the Gazprom corporation. The company management structure is as follows.

Corporate Governance: General Meeting of Shareholders

The supreme governing body of the company is the General Meeting of Shareholders. Its formation is carried out annually. In addition, extraordinary General Meetings are possible. The owners of ordinary shares have the right to vote.

All owners of the corresponding type of securities, independently or through a representative, can exercise their right to participate in the General Meeting. An event of the corresponding type is recognized as legally competent if the attendance of shareholders is ensured, who collectively have more than half of the votes.

The competence of the general meeting is represented, in particular:

Changes to the provisions of the Articles of Association of the company;

The definition of the auditor;

Distribution of income;

Election of members of the Board of Directors, as well as the Audit Commission;

Making decisions on changing the management structure of the company;

Making decisions on changing the value authorized capital Gazprom.

The general management of the corporation is carried out by the Board of Directors. It will be useful to study its features.

The activities of the Corporation's Board of Directors are regulated by a separate Regulation. The considered internal corporate structure of the Gazprom company solves the issues of business development, if they do not fall within the competence of the higher management body of the corporation - General meeting... At the same time, among the relevant competences is the election of members of the Board of Directors. This procedure is carried out annually.

The current management structure of the company is headed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Gazprom. The main competences of the relevant body:

Approval of the corporation's budget for the year;

Development of investment programs;

Making decisions on the formation of general gatherings;

Legal issues.

Gazprom's Audit Commission

There is one more important structure that is included in the management structure of the Gazprom corporation. We are talking about the Audit Commission. It is accountable to the General Assembly and is an elected body. The work of the Audit Commission of the company is also regulated by a separate Regulation.

In addition, the relevant structure of Gazprom is guided in its activities by the legislation of the Russian Federation, the Charter of the company, as well as the decisions of the General Meeting. The main tasks that this structure solves:

Control over the formation of reports and other information reflecting the indicators of the company's economic development, as well as characterizing its property status;

Control over the compliance of accounting methods used in the corporation with the provisions of Russian legislation;

Ensuring the timely provision of reports by the corporation to interested structures;

Preparation of proposals aimed at improving the efficiency of disposal of the corporation's assets, as well as the implementation of other areas of financial and economic activities of companies;

Preparation of proposals for reducing economic risks, optimizing mechanisms internal control in a corporation.

This is how one of largest companies in the world, this is how its management is organized. In terms of its structure, Gazprom is generally organized like other corporations of the corresponding scale. But taking into account the importance of the tasks that the company solves in the course of its activities, the organization of business management in this case requires the use of the most effective approaches in management.

De jure, the head of Gazprom, the chairman of the board of directors of the company, as well as his subordinates, solve difficult tasks to bring the corporate management system in line with this criterion.

Branches of the company

In the course of building the Gazprom management model, its branches were transformed into independent legal entities. They began to function as regional gas corporations. Thus, each branch of Gazprom is de jure independent of the main company, although, of course, it develops in the context of those strategic priorities that have been worked out by the head office of the corporation.

Migration of management to the Northern capital

The management of the largest Russian gas corporation is characterized by a very remarkable trend - a steady migration of Gazprom's internal corporate structures to the Northern Capital. We already know that the city where the head office of the Gazprom corporation is located is Moscow. But now St. Petersburg has every chance of becoming a key city in Russia in terms of the brand's presence at various levels of legal relations. With what it can be connected? What attracts a corporation like Gazprom and St. Petersburg?

First of all, of course, it is worth noting that the Northern capital of Russia is a wonderful city in itself, and this circumstance alone may become a factor in the desire of the country's leading managers to work there. According to experts, the largest Russian gas corporation now occupies about 20% of St. Petersburg offices in the luxury segment.

By 2018, the company's headquarters are planned to be located in the northern capital. It is assumed that the new head office of Gazprom will be located in the Lakhta Center building, which is currently being built in the Primorsky district of St. Petersburg. The building will be represented by a skyscraper and an office complex. The total area of the construction will be about 400 thousand square meters. meters.

At what address in the northern capital will the Gazprom headquarters be located? The address of "Lakhta Center" is Lakhtinsky prospect, 2, bldg. 3. Construction of the facility began in 2013. It is calculated that the center's skyscraper will be the tallest among buildings in Russia and Europe. In particular, it will be 88 higher than the Federation Tower, which is located in the Moscow-City office complex.

Office address

Actually, where is the Gazprom headquarters now? The address of the current head office of the corporation: Moscow, st. Nametkina, 16. The building is thus located in the South-West of the Russian capital. It is possible that after Gazprom moves (St. Petersburg and Lakhta Center are still in a state of expectation of this), in the building of the current headquarters of the corporation, nevertheless, the competent structures involved in the management of the company will continue to work. ...

Gazprom's subsidiaries and departments operate in St. Petersburg.

As of October 26, 2006, the shareholders of the company were the state represented by the Federal Property Management Agency (38.37%) and Rosneftegaz (10.74%); NPF Gazfond (3.02%), Gazprombank (0.37%), Vostok Nafta fund (1.3%). E.ON Ruhrgas ( subsidiary E.ON) controls 6.43% of Gazprom shares, companies friendly to Alisher Usmanov - 1.5%, GNK Nafta-Moscow - 4.5%, Inteko - about 1%, Deutsche UFG - about 3%. Gazprom's shareholders are also its chairman of the board Alexei Miller (0.0027%), as well as top managers Alexander Ananenkov (0.002%), Andrey Petrov (0.004%).

The state owns 50% plus 1 share of Gazprom (April 2006, up to 2004 - only 38.37%). According to the list of Gazprom's affiliates, as of December 31, 2005, the companies affiliated with it owned 7.79% of the shares, of which 3.16% were on the balance sheet of Gazfond, and 1.1% of Gazprombank. Nafta-Moskva has 5.3%, E.ON Ruhrgas controls 6.5%, Deutsche Bank and UFG clients control over 3%, Vostok Nafta fund 1.3%.

E.ON sold its stake.

Capitalization of "Gazprom" on May 8, 2008 amounted to $ 347.6 billion (the third public company in the world by this indicator at that time). By September 9, 2008, the company's capitalization dropped to $ 191.76 billion. On September 1, 2009, Gazprom's capitalization amounted to $ 122.0 billion.

A total of 23,673,512,900 ordinary shares are in circulation.

In May 2008, the company had a maximum price and Alexey Miller noted that in 7-8 years its capitalization should grow from $ 365.1 billion to one trillion. But in the fall of the same year, it collapsed to 77.1 billion, according to Wikipedia.

At the beginning of 2010, the head Alexey Miller took third place in the ranking of the most effective top managers in the world according to the magazine. Harvard business Review.

In January 2018, Gazprom made a request to the Russian government allow the company to sell its own gas on the St. Petersburg Commodity Exchange (SPIMEX) without any restrictions. As reported in the news, Alexey Miller sent this letter to the Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.

Relations between Gazprom and Naftogaz

A special place in the activities of Alexey Miller as the head of Gazprom was occupied by the relationship with the Ukrainian Naftogaz. The "gas wars" between Russia and Ukraine continued for years, while the situation became especially difficult after the Euromaidan, when Kiev stopped paying for gas. Then Vladimir Putin said that Gazprom will “supply gas only in those volumes that will be paid by the Ukrainian side a month in advance. How much they pay, so much they get. "

On June 2, 2014, Alexey Miller announced that the price of blue fuel for Ukraine could drop below $ 385.5 per thousand cubic meters as a result of a discount from Gazprom.

On June 16, due to regular non-payments by Naftogaz Ukrainy, Gazprom introduced a prepayment regime for Ukraine for gas supplies. In addition, Gazprom has filed a claim with the Stockholm Arbitration Court against the Ukrainian government for a total of about $ 4.5 billion. Dmitry Medvedev, commenting on the news that Russia will supply gas to Ukraine only after prepayment and repayment of all debts, wrote: "The freebie is over."

In July, Alexey Miller said that Ukraine's total debt for the fuel supplied by Gazprom reached $ 5.29 billion. A total of 11.5 billion cubic meters of gas remain unpaid, which is comparable to the volume of annual Russian gas supplies to Poland.

“Ukraine’s reluctance to pay for Russian gas in principle is becoming chronic and shows once again that the transfer to prepayment, provided for by the terms of the contract, was the only right decision,” Miller emphasized.

On October 31, 2014, gas negotiations in the Russia-Ukraine-EU format ended in Brussels. A trilateral agreement was signed, which fixed the plan for gas supplies in the winter. The first part was signed by the President of the European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso, Vice President of the European Commission Gunther Ettinger, Minister of Energy of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak and the head of the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine Yuri Prodan, the second document was signed by the heads of Gazprom and Naftogaz.

“We, citizens of Europe, can say that gas supplies have been secured this winter, we have achieved a breakthrough. All benefited from this, above all, the citizens of the EU. The transit function of Ukraine will continue to be carried out. Countries such as the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary will receive sufficient gas volumes, ”said Gunter Oettinger.

The European Commissioner for Energy also confirmed the points reached earlier, in particular, on a discount of $ 100 from the Russian Federation and on Ukraine's obligations to pay off $ 3.1 billion of its debt. At the same time, until March 2015, it was reported in the news, Ukraine could buy gas on an advance payment at a price of $ 385 per thousand cubic meters. meters of gas or lower, according to the calculation formula. It was noted that the key issue of the talks on October 30 was the financial guarantees of the European Commission for Kiev to pay for Russian gas supplies.

In April 2015, Gazprom and Naftogaz signed an agreement on gas supplies in the second quarter of 2015.

In 2015, Gazprom filed a lawsuit against Naftogaz, demanding to recover from the company a fee for the shortage of contracted gas volumes in 2012-2013, which it had to pay according to the take-or-pay rule (“take or pay” - annual payment minimum amount of fuel). Naftogaz, in turn, demanded to revise the pricing, which it considered not market-based. In 2012, "Nezalezhnaya" received a discount of one hundred dollars per thousand cubic meters of gas in exchange for basing the Black Sea Fleet in Crimea. But in 2014, after the entry of Crimea into the Russian Federation, the discount was canceled, and the price rose to $ 485 per thousand cubic meters. Naftogaz refused to pay at this price and also applied to arbitration.

In the fall of 2015, Russia again provided Ukraine with a gas discount. As the Deputy Head of the European Commission (EC) for Energy Union Affairs told Maros Shefchovic, in addition to the trilateral protocol, the “winter package” of documents included an additional contract between Gazprom and Naftogaz.

On November 18, 2015, the European Commission gave the green light to three gas pipelines from South-East to Central Europe, which Gazprom can use to supply the Balkans with Turkish Stream gas. These projects allowed Gazprom to solve the problem of gas delivery to European consumers, while refusing to transit gas through Ukraine.

Thus, Russia was going to protect itself from a gas crisis, similar to the crisis of 2009, when Ukraine stole gas. The head of Gazprom, Alexei Miller, made it clear that the Russian concern would not build on the EU territory to continue the Turkish Stream, and the Europeans themselves need to take care of this.

At the beginning of June 2016, Gazprom received official letter from Naftogaz with a request to resume supplies of Russian fuel. Kiev was offered a price of $ 177 per 1,000 cubic meters, but Naftogaz considered it too high. Then Gazprom issued a preliminary bill to Kiev for gas.

On May 31, 2017, the Stockholm Arbitration Court issued an interim judgment in a dispute between Gazprom and Naftogaz over a contract for the supply of gas to Ukraine.

On February 28, 2018, the Stockholm Arbitration Court announced the decision on the transit claim of Naftogaz against Gazprom. It was passed in favor of the Ukrainian company and ordered the Russian gas giant to pay Naftogaz $ 2.56 billion.

At the same time, Naftogaz demanded even more - $ 17 billion. Gazprom does not agree with the decision of the Stockholm Arbitration, accusing it of violating Swedish law governing the contract with Naftogaz. Gazprom has promised to defend its rights "by all means" that will not contradict the legislation.

After that, the Gazprom management announced that it had returned the advance payment for March to Naftogaz and would not resume gas supplies. As a result, the Ukrainian authorities temporarily limited gas consumption in the country, but a day later the president Petro Poroshenko announced the start of fuel supplies from Poland, Slovakia and Hungary. As it turned out, this option turned out to be four times more expensive than the Russian proposal.

Commercial Director Naftogaz Yuri Vitrenko said that Gazprom had underpaid his company since 2009 about $ 20 billion due to the fact that fuel transit tariffs were understated.
