Dear shareholders and investors,

Every year, we see businesses pay increasing attention to environmental, social and governance factors, which have also become a key focus area for the investment community. I can say with certainty that 2019 was a breakthrough year for Rosneft when it comes to sustainable development. As the

Chairman of the Board of Directors, I am convinced that it is extremely important for the Company to take consistent steps unlocking its potential, placing a special emphasis on innovations and environmental protection.

Rosneft has joined the UN Global Compact, an initiative that encourages businesses to become more socially responsible. Moreover, we annually

release a public statement regarding the Company's contribution towards achieving the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals.

In line with our development strategy, we aim to become one of the greenest companies by 2022 and rank in the first quartile among global peers in terms of unit GHG emissions. We have already delivered some tangible results. In 2019,

Message from the Chairman of Rosneft's Board of Directors

we cut fugitive methane emissions by more than 70%. Importantly, this is not a one-off reduction, but a sustainable trend. We have been keeping up the momentum for the last few years, which makes us one of the industry's leaders in minimising the GHG footprint.

Another milestone for both the industry and the global community was our signing of the guidelines for reducing methane emissions across the natural gas supply chain in June 2019. Together with other industry majors supporting this initiative, we will be able to cut these emissions generated by production assets.

Our green investments totalled RUB 35 bln in 2019 and approximately RUB 240 bln over the past five years, with another RUB 200 bln slated to be spent in the coming years as part of our ongoing efforts in this area.

We are encouraged to see our achievements in sustainable development recognised by the public as well as by rating agencies. In 2019, we joined the ranks of industry leaders in the major international sustainability ratings. Rosneft was included in the FTSE4Good Index and became the best Russian oil and gas company in the global CDP Climate and Water ratings, while also winning praise from Bloomberg and Refinitiv for the transparency of its disclosures.

Another driver of Rosneft's investment appeal is its dividend policy, which provides for at least 50% of its net income to be distributed twice a year as dividends. In 2019, the Company paid record high interim dividends of RUB 162.5 bln. Today, we offer our shareholders one of the best returns in the Russian oil and gas industry. Our excellent performance in 2019 will enable us to further increase the size of final dividends.

We are successfully growing our international business, too. The reporting year saw us start direct sales of petroleum products in Germany, which marks an important stage in our history. At present, we make shipments from refineries where the Company is a shareholder to more than 500 customers in Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Austria and France. But our ambitions go beyond that. Going forward, we plan to expand our sales geography, including by benefiting from a deal to increase our stake in Bayernoil Raffineriegesellschaft to 28.57%. Rosneft remains the third largest oil refining company in Germany, with the total crude oil processing volumes amounting to 12.8 mmtpa.

The development of Zohr, a natural gas field in the Mediterranean Sea offshore Egypt where Rosneft holds a 30% stake, is advancing ahead of schedule. Put on stream as early as in 2017, the field produced 23.4 bcm of gas in 2019. Our

participation in this unique project run jointly with global majors strengthens our position as a cutting-edge hightech company, while also enabling us to build up our offshore development competencies.

That said, we are not going to stay put and will continue moving forward. Therefore, I am confident that in 2020 all our business lines will continue growing fast.

Dear shareholders and investors,

2019 has been a successful year for the Company. We consistently worked to implement the Rosneft-2022 Strategy approved by the Board of Directors and delivered strong results across a vari ety of business lines, which helped us cement our leadership in the energy market.

Notwithstanding the existing OPEC+ arrangement and limitations on oil in take by Transneft's trunk pipelines,

we managed to maintain hydrocar bon production at a record high of 285.3 mmtoe, with the average daily out put standing at 5.8 mmboe.

These strong results were due to the launch of greenfield projects, sustained production at brownfields and the use of cutting-edge technologies. At Bashneft's Ilishevskoye field, we piloted Digital Field, the industry's unique information system covering all key oil production and logistics processes. This project is expected to have an annual economic

impact of some RUB 1 bln on Bashneft alone, and will be further rolled out to other assets.

In the reporting year, we also carried on with the cluster development of our fields. In June, we put on stream the Zapadno-Erginskoye field (Erginsky clus ter) and started infrastructure develop ment and preparations for commercial production at the Severo-Danilovskoye oil and gas condensate field, the first of four fields in the Danilovsky cluster.

Another important milestone was the start of developing a new oil and gas province on the Taimyr Peninsular in Northern Russia, as part of the Vostok-Oil project. Its reserve base amounts to nearly 5 bt of crude oil. The key ad vantage of this project, which we plan to develop together with partners, is its close proximity to the unique Northern Sea Route. This will enable us to sup ply crude oil to both Europe and Asia, while also increasing cargo flow along the Northern Sea Route in line with the instructions of the Russian President. Going forward, we plan to create a new word-class cluster unmatched anywhere else.

In 2019, oil refining volumes amounted to 110 mmt, with more than 10 mmt at tributable to the Company's foreign re fineries. These volumes were sufficient to meet the domestic demand and hon our our commitments with respect to stable and secure supply of petroleum products. Wholesale shipments of motor fuels grew almost 4% year-on-year, com ing close to 30 mmt. On the exchange, we sold 2.3 times more motor gaso line and twice as much diesel fuel as re quired by the Government. Domestic retail sales of motor fuels went up 6% compared to 2018.

-

On a separate note, we started produc ing the first hydrotreating catalysts ca pable of fully replacing similar foreign products to reduce the dependence of the Russian refining industry on im ported technologies. Industrial tests on the first batch of these catalysts proved to be a success.

Our Rosneft–2022 Strategy efforts have already yielded tangible results, which is best illustrated by stronger financials, in particular net income and dividends. In 2019, our net income attributable to shareholders increased by 29% to RUB 708 bln. Our revenue went up by 5.3% to a record high of RUB 8.7 trln, while operating profit before deprecia tion and amortisation grew by 1.2% to

RUB 2.1 trln. In 2019 our free cash flow amounted to RUR 884 bn, remaining in the positive territory for nearly eight years running.

These achievements gave a boost to our market capitalisation, which increased by 17% in 2019 and by over 44% since the launch of the Strategy. This proves that we are on the right path.

We confirmed our role as Russia's larg est taxpayer and a systemically impor tant company, with contributions to the national budget coming close to RUB 3.6 trln over the year.

Maximising shareholder returns is a key priority for the Company's management. For the full year, our dividends reached an all-time high of roughly RUB 283 bln (up 25% year-on-year), with nearly RUB 141 bln attributable to the Russian Government.

We are successfully developing our trad ing business. In 2019, we opened an office in Singapore to trade in oil and petroleum products. The new division has already delivered impressive results, with feedstock supplies to Asian coun tries in 2019 reaching 79.7 mmt. We are strengthening our efforts in the tra ditional sales markets, too. In 2019, we signed contracts to supply up to 12 mmt and 15.1 mmt of oil to Poland and the Czech Republic, respectively.

In the past 20 years Rosneft became one of the global energy leaders and the largest publicly-traded company in the world by production and reserves vol umes. Our employees received awards from the Government for their outstand ing achievements and contribution to the national economy. I am confident that this high-level recognition will help us strengthen our position both in the Russian and international markets.

Long-Term Development Programme and Progress Report

Originally developed in 20141 , the Long-Term Development Programme (the Programme) is subject to annual update.2

In 2019, we revised the Programme, taking into account the Company's performance results, granular action plans to achieve certain long-term goals and updated initiatives drafted pursuant to the Russian Government directives3 . The updated Programme was approved by the Company's Board of Directors (Minutes No. 11 dated 23 December 2019).

The Programme details the Company's strategic focus areas, targets and goals for all business areas and corporate functions. It also includes a list of key initiatives to implement the strategy in the medium term.

The main priorities, key performance indicators (KPIs) and actions plans under the current Innovation Development Programme (Research, Design, and Innovations section), the Import Substitution and Equipment Localisation Programme (Localisation and Development of Industrial Clusters section), the Energy Saving Programme

(Energy Efficiency and Energy

Saving section) take into account the Programme provisions and are integrated into the current version of the document.

Performance indicators include an integrated KPI for innovations. Rosneft's Investment Programme aims to help the Company achieve its strategic objectives in key business areas stipulated in the Strategy and the Programme (Investment Programme in 2019 section).

We completed the Programme's key initiatives planned for core businesses and functional units for 2019. For the Programme outcomes in 2019, see the Performance Results section.

Ernst & Young, an independent auditor, reviewed the Programme results. Based on the review, the independent auditor issued an opinion on whether the Progress Report fairly presents the past year's performance under the Programme, and whether the reasons given therein to substantiate deviations of actual results from the 2019 targets are fair. The opinion was received on 21 April 2020.

The Programme envisages a reserve replacement ratio of at least 100%, efficient brownfield operation and production ramp-up driven by new projects in Eastern Russia, development of hard-torecover reserves, cost-effective offshore development, gas output growth secured by a long-term high-performing sales portfolio, and stronger margins across the entire value chain.

In implementing the Programme, we focus on cost effectiveness and KPI targets for all key initiatives.

Market Overview and Competitive Environment

KPI Structure

The Company's KPI system seeks to decompose the Company's strategy and Long-Term Development Programme into specific KPIs, cascade them to all management levels, evaluate progress against targets, and create incentives for efficient management deci-

• sion-making. The KPI system ensures:
• focus on implementing the strategy and meeting the targets set in the Long-Term Development Programme;
• focus on consistently improving the Company's financial and operating (industry-specific) results;
• compliance with directives and instructions of federal executive bodies, including annual cost-cutting targets;
• well-balanced integrated indicators motivating employees to achieve the Company's main goals;
• transparency, measurability, minimum sufficiency, and consistency of KPIs;

▪ a top-down approach to cascading and breaking down KPIs.

There are both financial and industry-specific KPIs in place.

The KPIs comprise:

▪ corporate KPIs based on the key financial, economic, and industry-specific indicators from the Company's consolidated business plan and business plans of its businesses;

▪ individual KPIs based on individual strategic goals for each top executive.

KPIs and targets for the senior management are set by Rosneft's Board of Directors subject to preliminary discussion by the relevant committee on an annual basis.

The 2019 KPIs for Rosneft's top managers are based on the business plan

approved in December 2018, and adopted by the Board of Directors on 22 February 2019 (Minutes No. 16).

Corporate KPIs and the individual KPIs of the CEO for the year include:

▪ return on average capital employed

• (ROACE);
• hydrocarbon production rate;
• accident rate;

▪ workforce productivity;

• TSR equal to or above the Russian industry's average;
• cost reduction vs the previous reporting period on a comparable basis;
• financial leverage (net debt / EBITDA);
• integrated KPI for innovations;
• compliance ratio as regards instructions from the Board of Directors and the Management Board.

KPI Progress

To calculate annual bonuses for managers and employees, the Company analyses progress against KPIs following the review of the annual performance based on the management accounts and audited public financial statements.

The Company's Internal Audit Service annually assesses the performance against corporate and individual KPI set for the reporting period to calculate an-

nual bonuses for the management of the Company and Group Subsidiaries. The audit results for top managers are subject to review by the HR and Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors makes resolutions regarding annual bonus payments and their size depending on the management's progress against their KPIs.

Target KPIs are normalised to reflect the factors beyond the management's control, such as FX volatility and global market prices in accordance with the Regulations on the KPI Normalisation Procedure Related to Management Performance Review and Assessment in the Reporting Period to Calculate Annual Bonuses1 and the Guidelines for KPI Normalisation Related to Performance Review against Business Plan2 .

Exploration and Production

In 2019, Exploration and Production capex totalled RUB 773 bln. These investments are aimed at maintaining and developing mature and new oil and gas assets to meet the strategic goals of ramping up production to 250 mmt of liquid hydrocarbons and over 100 bcm of gas by 2022 and achieving a reserve replacement ratio of at least 100%.

In 2019, capital investments in mature onshore and offshore fields generating a stable positive cash flow amounted to ca. RUB 440 bln, or over 50% of the Company's capex.

Thanks to the commissioning and fullscale development of major and new offshore and onshore projects, we are well-positioned to increase and replace oil production at mature fields with highvalue added competitive barrels. We use the industry's best management practices to implement our projects.

In 2019, our capex on major and new onshore and offshore projects amounted to ca. RUB 270 bln, or around 32% of total investments.

In the reporting year, the share of international projects in our total

hydrocarbon output approached 14%, with further growth possible depending on exploration results.

International projects, especially those on priority markets, account for about 7% of all our investments. They primarily focus on establishing partnerships to share risks, co-finance expenditures and maximise the efficiency through technology exchange.

EBITDA for 12M 2019 grew by 1.2% yearon-year due to an increase in oil sales, mostly in eastern direction (+34.6%), and effective cost control.

A 24.0% year-on-year rise in net income in rouble terms was driven by positive changes in operating profit and a decrease in financial and other expenses.

In 2019, the Company produced 4.67 mmb per day (230.2 mmtpa) of liquid hydrocarbons, flat year-on-year. This was achieved despite external restrictions such as compliance with the extended OPEC+ agreement along with the temporarily limited oil acceptance by Transneft's trunk pipelines.

In 2019, gas production amounted to 67.0 bcm, unchanged year-on-year (with minor deviations).

Unit production opex for 12M 2019 was RUB 199 per boe (USD 3.1 per boe), up 2.6% year-on-year and below the producer price inflation rate of 2.9%. The increase is mainly due to higher costs of electricity, related transportation costs and payroll.

Opex at our Russian refineries and opex per tonne of refined oil for 12M 2019 increased by 6.3% (unit opex up 9.5%) year-on-year due to the growing tariffs of natural monopolies and salary indexation.

A 5.3% revenue increase in 12M 2019 was mainly caused by expanding oil sales (+20.1%) against the backdrop of lower oil prices globally (-6.2%).

Onshore exploration in Russia

Key activities and achievements

Key onshore achievements in Russia:

The Company's top priorities are unlocking the resource potential and sustainable use of mineral resources, exercising strict compliance with environmental safety standards, and an extensive application of advanced technologies.

The Rosneft–2022 Strategy, approved by the Company's Board of Directors, sets out the key exploration targets: to ensure 100% reserve replacement of liquid hydrocarbons and to increase the exploration drilling success rate to 95%

by 2022 through the use of advanced technologies and innovative solutions.

The Company has developed and is implementing a set of R&D projects and is working to create its own geophysical service. Finite difference wave field simulations are used to identify optimum parameters for seismic surveys during the design stage. The Company completed projects to model surveillance systems in Eastern and Western Siberia. Similar projects will be implemented in the North Caucasus

and the Republic of Bashkortostan. The Company continued its phased deployment of advanced seismic data processing and interpretation technologies, detailed velocity-depth modelling, and integration of seismic and non-seismic methods to improve the exploration drilling success rate. In an effort to minimise errors during structural modelling, Rosneft deployed advanced near-surface anomaly detection practices.

Rosneft and BP completed the development of an innovative seismic acquisition system, unrivalled in the world. The system was piloted during seismic surveys in Russia and large-scale tests in the UAE. The tests confirmed that the system ensures high level of geologic accuracy and productivity,

and are capable of working in hard-toreach areas.

In 2019, 143 exploration wells were completed and tested with a success rate of 88%, a record high over the past years. 2D seismic surveys of 2.6 thousand

linear km and 3D seismic surveys of 9 thousand sq km were completed.

Successful exploration resulted in the discovery of 22 fields and 257 new deposits with a total of 346 mmtoe in reserves.

Under the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) classification, Rosneft's proved hydrocarbon reserves totalled 42,018 mmboe (5,678 mmtoe) as at 31 December 2019. Hydrocarbon reserves grew by 587 mmboe (81 mmtoe), or 1%, yearon-year. The audit to assess life-of-field reserves was performed by DeGolyer & MacNaughton.

In 2019, Rosneft's SEC-proved reserve life amounted to more than 20 years. The SEC-proved reserve replacement ratio stood at 129%.

As at 31 December 2019, the Company's reserves under the PRMS (Petroleum Resources Management System) standards, according to DeGolyer & MacNaughton, totalled 47,289 mmboe (6,400 mmtoe) of 1P reserves, 84,926 mmboe (11,504 mmtoe) of 2P reserves, and 125,296 mmboe (16,976 mmtoe) of 3P reserves. In 2019, total 3P reserves grew by more than 4 bboe (550 mmtoe).

Reserve Replacement by Region

Western Siberia

Rosneft's reserve increases in Western Siberia amounted to 243.9 mmt of oil and gas condensate and 86.9 bcm of gas. 58 exploration wells were completed and tested with a success rate of 92%. 3D seismic surveys totalled over 4.2 thousand sq km. Four fields and 73 new deposits were discovered with a total of 54 mmtoe in АВ1С1+В2С2 reserves.

RN-Uvatneftegaz is consistently implementing the strategy to develop the Uvat project, including by ensuring the annual growth rate target for recoverable reserves. In the reporting period, significantly more oil reserves were discovered than extracted. In 2019, the increase in RN-Uvatneftegaz's АВ1С1 reserves (24.7 mmt) exceeded production (10.3 mmt) by 240%.

In 2019, two new fields were booked in the Russian State Register of Mineral Reserves: Sosnovoye (Yugansky 12 licence area) and Matusevich (Yugansky 11 licence area) with a total of 6.9 mmtoe in recoverable AB1C1+B2C2 reserves.

Drilling of an exploration well at the Kirilkinskoye field (Tamarginsko-Severo-Bolotny licence area) confirmed the prospects of a new oil and gas pay in the pre-Jurassic deposits of the Uvat project.

In 2019, RN-Nyaganneftegaz recorded reserve replacement of 194% in the licence areas of the Krasnoleninsk Code of Fields.

In actively developing its gas business, Rosneft carried out 3D seismic surveys of 729 sq km at its Western Siberian gas assets in 2019, as well as completed and tested three wells. In 2019, Rosneft's gas reserves in Western Siberia grew by 86.9 bcm.

The Company continued study of the unconventional gas-saturated reservoir of the Berezovskaya suite in Western Siberia. In 2019, Rosneft developed a unique technology to tap into hardto-recover dry gas reserves in the low-permeability opoka-like siliceous reservoirs of the Berezovskaya suite. Rosneft initiated the creation of a working group under the auspices of the State Commission for Mineral Reserves (GKZ) of the Federal Subsoil Resources Management Agency (Rosnedra) and in partnership with major Russian companies to prepare a Single Interim Methodology for assessing the volumetric estimations and gas recovery rate for the deposits of the Berezovskaya suite. Following well testing in the Berezovskaya suite interval in 2019, the increase in recoverable B1C1+B2C2 gas reserves amounted to 30.5 bcm.

As part of the Gydan Peninsula study in 2019, the interpretation of 3D seismic surveys of the Minkhovsky licence area confirmed the field potential and verified the location of prospecting and exploration wells. Drilling preparations are currently underway. A new gas cluster will be created based on the Minkhovskoye field.

Eastern Siberia and Far East

In 2019, total reserves growth in Eastern Siberia and the Far East was 101.2 mmt of oil and gas condensate and 185.4 bcm of gas.

18 exploration wells were completed and tested with a success rate of 94%. 2D seismic surveys of 1.8 thousand linear km and 3D seismic surveys of 1.2 thousand sq km were completed. One new field and seven new deposits were discovered with a total of 9 mmtoe in АВ1С1+В2С2 reserves.

At Verkhnechonskneftegaz, testing of eight exploration wells in licence areas in the Katangsky district of the Irkutsk Region confirmed the industrial oil and gas bearing potential with an exploration drilling success rate of 100%.

A well in the Preobrazhensky licence area, drilled near the Severo-Danilovskoye and Lisovsky fields, demonstrated a record flow rate of 582 cub m per day of waterless oil. The location of exploration wells was selected based on advanced technologies to process 2D and 3D seismic data. All wells were drilled using a fundamentally new geological approach. Based on the testing results of exploration wells, the Company will soon submit a report to the State Commission for Mineral Reserves to record the new field reserves in the State Register of Mineral Reserves.

Rosneft expanded the AB1C1 reserves of the Verkhnechonskoye oil and gas condensate field (within the Verkhnechonsky licence area) by a total of 51.8 mmt of oil and gas condensate and 66.4 bcm of gas. This was possible due to effective exploration, advanced data processing system, and application of innovative technologies.

In 2019, we determined the location of the first exploration wells in the Khatanga cluster on the Taimyr Peninsula based on the results of largescale seismic surveys conducted in 2018.

In the reporting year, the Company obtained a licence for the Zapadno-Irkinski licence area, along with the major fields of the Vankor cluster.

In 2019, Rosneft continued drilling multilateral exploration wells in the Krasnoyarsk Territory to confirm productivity of structurally complicated carbonate and fissured reservoirs and increase the deposit area. Using more sophisticated wells in complex geological conditions made it possible to achieve the target reserves growth, update the geological model, and eliminate geological risks for production drilling. The Company decided to roll out the technology for structurally complicated carbonate reservoirs in Eastern Siberia.

In the Tersko-Kamovsky licence area (north-eastern section), the vertical shaft of the appraisal well was drilled, completed and tested in 2019. Testing in the Riphean dolomite stratum resulted in the oil rim discovery of the Madrinskaya deposit, Block 1. The obtained flow helps estimate the oil bearing capacity of the Madrinskaya block 1 as a whole, which potentially allows the Company to register

39.7 mmt of oil in the B1C1+B2C2 reserves in the State Register of Mineral Reserves. The drilling results will increase the resource base of Slavneft-Krasnoyarskneftegaz and

Vostsibneftegaz.

Currently, the well is being sidetracked subhorizontally to obtain more accurate information on the extraction potential of the area for subsequent drilling through a grid of horizontal production

wells.

Central Russia, Timan-Pechora, and Southern Russia

In 2019, reserves in the Volga-Urals Region, Timan-Pechora, and Southern Russia increased by a total of 77.9 mmt of oil and gas condensate and 7.8 bcm of gas. 67 wells were completed and tested, with a success rate of 84%. 3D seismic surveys totalled 3.6 thousand sq km, while 2D seismic surveys totalled 0.8 thousand linear km. 17 fields and 177 new deposits were discovered with a total of 282 mmtoe in АВ1С1+В2С2 reserves.

In the Samara Region, the Company continued exploration of Domanic deposits for siliceous limestones. At the Leshchevsky and Neprikovsky licence areas, three pilot wells were drilled and completed, with one of them completed and tested. The Company plans to drill additional wells to prepare a conclusion on the commercial potential of these deposits in the licence areas in the Samara Region.

The new field discoveries were made possible by the successful implementation of the exploration programme by Orenburgneft and Bashneft-Dobycha. The Company discovered 15 fields and 123 new deposits. An important discovery by Orenburgneft was the Zapadno-Dolgovskoye field within the Buzuluk subsoil area. Based on the drilling results of appraisal well No. 444, the recoverable B1C1+B2C2 reserves in the field are estimated at 7.6 mmtoe.

The Company's key driver for maintaining stable levels of production is the production drilling, which is responsible for more than 8% of the Company's crude oil and gas condensate output.

Rosneft is focused on high-tech wells: 57% out of the 2.9 thousand wells commissioned in 2019 were horizontal vs 48% in 2018. 986 new horizontal wells drilled using multi-stage hydraulic fracturing techniques were commissioned, with their share reaching 34%. During the first year of operation, the production per horizontal well was some 9 kt, 11% year-on-year or 2.4 times higher than per directional well.

Advanced planning, drilling, and development technologies facilitated new wells' average annual flow rate of 44.8 t per day, up 10.6% year-onyear, and 19.6 mmt of incremental production.

In 2019, RN-Yuganskneftegaz

commissioned more than 1 thousand new wells producing over 6.5 mmt and reached the five-years maximum average annual flow rate of new wells (39 t per day). These results were attributable to innovative technologies and streamlined development systems. For example, the percentage of horizontal wells in production drilling increased by ca 50% (from 26% in 2018 to 39% in 2019). In 2019, the Group Subsidiary continued to pilot horizontal drilling and completion technologies, commissioned 35 wells with multi-stage hydraulic fracturing and horizontal sections of 1.3–1.6 km, and successfully expanded the use of multilateral wells.

In 2019, Samotlorneftegaz

commissioned 383 new wells, which resulted in 1.2 mmt of incremental oil production. The Group Subsidiary makes consistent efforts to pinpoint hidden deposits at the Samotlor field, including through the implementation of its appraisal sidetracking and well deepening programme. Due to these

efforts, 14 horizontal wells were commissioned in Jurassic deposits (YuV1 formation) with an average initial oil flow rate of 84 t per day, which is two times higher than the average of the field's new wells for the period.

Verkhnechonskneftegaz also succeeds in implementing horizontal and multilateral drilling. In 2019, the Group Subsidiary commissioned 46 high-tech wells with an average annual oil reserve increase of 80 t per day (up 17% year-on-year). The unique expertise gained when developing complex collectors of the Verkhnechonskoye field will be further applied to drilling and developing new licence areas in Eastern Siberia.

In 2019, RN-Uvatneftegaz continued extensive drilling across the Uvat group of fields. For optimising the development of hard-to-recover reserves, the subsidiary supports a consistent transition to horizontal drilling with multi-stage hydraulic fracturing (the share of horizontal wells reached 71% in 2019) with the average flow rate of new wells up year-on-year, totalling 82 t per day.

Varyeganneftegaz improved the horizontal well design by raising the number of multi-stage hydraulic fracturing stages per well from five to seven and optimised drilling locations, reaching a five-years maximum annual average flow rate of 40.9 t per day, up 21% year-on-year.

In 2019, Orenburgneft expanded its horizontal drilling programme and commissioned eleven horizontal wells, including five with multi-stage acid fracturing and two with multi-stage proppant fracturing. These technologies make such wells highly productive, with horizontal wells having an initial flow rate of 63.3 t per day, which is almost 1.5 times higher than the average for production wells drilled in 2019 (46.7 t per day).

Vostsibneftegaz commissioned 39 horizontal wells vs 21 wells in 2018. Due to the optimised strategy of horizontal well placing and

updated geological structure concept of the Riphean formation in the Yurubchenskaya deposit, new wells produced the field's all-time highest average oil flow rate of 186 t per day, up 21% year-on-year.

Multilateral wells

Multilateral wells are applied to improve the recovery and reservoir penetration quality for projects with high geological complexity. This method of pay zone penetration was successfully piloted and implemented at the Company's fields with 135 multilateral wells commissioned in 2019, up 84% year-on-year.

To increase well productivity and scope of reserves under development, RN-Yuganskneftegaz introduced fishbone wells at the Moskovtsev and Sorovskoye fields. The Group Subsidiary commissioned seven wells with three and four sidetracks. The average increase in the initial flow rate was +159% compared to horizontal wells drilled in similar conditions.

In 2019, RN-Vankor commissioned 54 multilateral wells, a record number for the Vankor cluster since the beginning of its development, up 38% year-on-year.

At the Srednebotuobinskoye field, Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha drilled the longest multilateral well having 15 horizontal sidetracks with a total drilling length exceeding 10 km across a pay zone. The subsidiary successfully replicates this technology with 27 multilateral wells drilled at the field in the reporting year.

The Company produced 4.67 mmb per day (230.2 mmtpa, 81% of total hydrocarbon production), flat year-onyear. This was achieved despite such external restrictions as compliance with the OPEC+ agreement along with the temporarily limited oil acceptance by Transneft's trunk pipelines. As the Company achieved the planned production in 2019, it greatly contributed to Russia's new post-Soviet oil production record (560.3 mmt).

24 December 2019 was marked by a new milestone in Rosneft's history, as the Company produced its 2.5 billionth tonne of liquid hydrocarbons.

The production drilling totalled 10.0 mln m year-on-year with over 2.9 thousand wells commissioned. The

Production of Liquid Hydrocarbons

number of horizontal wells was up 1% year-on-year, with a 9 p. p. increase – to 57% of all new wells in commercial operation. The production per horizontal well was some 9 kt, up 11% year-on-year or 2.4 times higher than per directional well.

Rosneft is Russia's leading petroleum company in terms of launching new high-margin projects. In 2019, the Company's share in the total production of liquid hydrocarbons as part of major projects launched since 2016 totalled 18.9 mmt (384 kbpd), up 27% year-onyear. At the same time, their share in the total production of liquid hydrocarbons increased by 8%.

Rosneft also gives high priority to brownfield development: 2019 saw RN-Yuganskneftegaz's largest asset hit an all-time high in terms of daily production with more than 198 kt per day. Investment incentives helped the Samotlor field to overcome the trend of decline in production, which previously demonstrated an average annual decrease of 5%. In 2018–2019, the Company reduced the production decline to some 1%, reaching 18.4 mmt at the year end. The production trend changed greatly in RN-Nyaganneftegaz with a production increase by 17%, reaching around 7 mmt.

Market Overview and Competitive Environment

Infill drilling

Along with drilling in new areas, the Company conducts infill drilling to augment production by transforming and expanding the development system.

In 2019, RN-Yuganskneftegaz

continued its infill drilling programme at the Priobskoye and Prirazlomnoye fields and drilled 77 wells with an average initial flow rate of 82.6 t per day, including 42 horizontal wells drilled using multi-stage hydraulic fracturing techniques (five ports per well on average). The Group Subsidiary has plans to expand the programme at the Priobskoye and Prirazlomnoye fields, as well as implement similar programmes at its other fields (Malobalykskoye, Ombinskoye, and Vostochno-Surgutskoye fields).

To maintain production and improve the quality of reserves recovery at the Samotlor field, Samotlorneftegaz continues its infill drilling programme. 235 infill wells were commissioned in 2019 (65% of all wells commissioned at the field). In addition, horizontal wells with multi-stage hydraulic fracturing are constructed.

The Vankor field has been successfully implementing its infill drilling programme. As at the end of 2019, the

incremental production attributable to the commissioning of 41 new infill wells totalled 910 kt. In harsh geological conditions, advanced drilling and horizontal well completion technologies ensured an average flow rate of 136 t per day, which is three times higher than the average well flow rate across the Company.

Tomskneft VNK pilots the

transformation of a Jurassic deposit development system (YuV1 formation) at the Krapivinskoye field. To enhance oil recovery, infill horizontal wells are drilled at the field, using multi-stage hydraulic fracturing. In 2019, 18 wells of the kind with an average flow rate of 28 t per day were commissioned with new wells to follow in future.

Use of inflow control device in wells

To minimise the risks of early gas blowout from the gas cap or underlying water, the Company uses inflow control devices to restrict fluid inflow to certain horizontal well sections. In 2019,

Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha

successfully piloted inflow control devices in horizontal and multilateral wells at the Srednebotuobinskoye field.

In 2019, the Group Subsidiary continued to use autonomous inflow control devices and completion systems with shiftable sleeves in horizontal wells of SevKomNeftegaz (joint project with Norway's Equinor) as part of pilot development of PK1 formation at the Severo-Komsomolskoye field. The pilot development also involved the commissioning of 28 wells, including 25 with inflow control devices.

Sidetracking

For increasing production and achieving target oil recovery factor, the Company carries out sidetracking operations in existing wells. In 2019, such operations covered 1.3 thousand wells, up 3.5% year-on-year, resulting in an incremental production of 3.3 mmt of crude oil. Improving the design of sidetracks due to increasing the share of horizontal drilling to 71% vs 68% in 2018 helped to maintain the average well flow rate after well workover by sidetracking at the level of 2018.

Innovative approaches make sidetracking effective for brownfields. Horizontal sidetracks enable extraction from formation intervals that have not been reached by previously drilled directional wells.

At RN-Yuganskneftegaz's fields

394 sidetracking operations were carried out in 2019, including 298 sidetracks with horizontal completion. The active application of horizontal sidetracks at mature fields, for example in Cretaceous formations of the Mamontovskoye and Ust-Balykskoye fields, results in high initial oil flow rates of up to 300 t per day, though these fields have a more than fifty-year history of development. Due to the use of advanced technologies, the average annual well flow rate totalled 22.9 t per day, up 8% year-on-year.

In 2019, Samotlorneftegaz

commissioned 424 wells following a workover by sidetracking, a record number for the whole Company. It is also a five-year high for the subsidiary, up 14% year-on-year. These measures resulted in an additional crude oil production of 0.8 mmt, up 30% year-on-year.

RN-Nyaganneftegaz continues to pilot and implement the technology of horizontal sidetracking with MSHF and liner packer systems. Following the programme roll-out in the Talinsky licence area (YuK2-9), 14 wells were commissioned with an average initial flow rate of 27.9 t. In 2020–2024, the subsidiary plans to use similar technique for drilling 100 wells that are expected to produce 1.8 mmt.

Horizontal drilling also has a noticeable effect from well workover in one of Russia's oldest oil-producing regions, the Island of Sakhalin. Following the drilling of horizontal sidetracks to increase well productivity, RN-Sakhalinmorneftegaz's doubled its incremental production resulting from these operations as compared to 2018. In the next five years, the subsidiary intends to replicate this approach across its assets. For eleven fields, it will be the first well workover with sidetracking.

Drilling geological support centre

In 2019, Rosneft's drilling geological support centre, the first in the Russian oil and gas industry, celebrated its 10th anniversary. Under its supervision the Company drilled over 11 thousand horizontal wells and horizontal sidetracks. To improve employees' professional skills, Rosneft held its first geosteering championship (championship in geological support of high-tech horizontal drilling). 20 subsidiaries of the Company joined the event to compete in the virtual "drilling" of three horizontal wells with different difficulty levels and penetrate an oil reservoir as far as possible. All the participants did their best to cope with the task and gain unique experience in supporting horizontal drilling in different real geological environments across the Company's footprint.

Well interventions for incremental (besides new well commissioning and sidetracking) and recovered production

In line with its approved strategy, the Company keeps improving the efficiency of its well interventions. In 2019, the Company increased the number of well interventions for incremental production (besides drilling) to 4,913, up 9.6% year-on-year. The well interventions

Western Siberia

translated into 5.7 mmt of incremental oil and gas condensate production (up 3.8% year-on-year).

The growth of well interventions in 2019 was mainly attributable to an increase in the number of hydraulic fracturing jobs to 2,657, up 20.6% year-on-year. In 2019, the incremental production due to hydraulic fracturing was 3.4 mmt, up 17.5% year-on-year.

RN-Yuganskneftegaz, Bashneft-

Dobycha, and Samotlorneftegaz are the Group Subsidiaries with the most noticeable hydraulic fracturing growth in 2019. In 2019, RN-Yuganskneftegaz carried out 907 hydraulic fracturing jobs, up 31.8% year-on-year, with an incremental production of 1,465 k t, up 27.3% year-on-year, hitting a sevenyear high. For the first time over the last four years, Bashneft-Dobycha carried out 640 hydraulic fracturing jobs, up 23.4% year-on-year, with an incremental production of 570 kt, up 37.4% yearon-year. Udmurtneft, Samaraneftegaz, and RN-Severnaya Neft, among others, actively deploy acid and proppant fracturing techniques in carbonate formations of their fields.

Over 10 thousand well interventions were performed in 2019, resulting in a recovered production of 12.2 mmt. The production per well attributable to basic production recovery was up 9.8% yearon-year, from 1,055 to 1,158 t per well.

The key production recovery efforts include bottom-hole zone treatment and well optimisation.

In 2019, the number of bottom-hole zone treatment and well optimisation operations hit a seven-year high. More specifically, the Company performed 4,168 bottom-hole zone treatment operations (up 13.3% year-on-year) with a total production recovery of 3,233 kt (up 25.3% year-on-year) and 4,042 well optimisation operations (up 12.4% yearon-year) with a total production recovery of 6,405 kt (up 20.7% year-on-year).

The Company enhanced the use of physical and chemical methods of enhanced oil recovery by a half compared to 2018. This included five pilot projects involving the technology. Samotlorneftegaz piloted sediment generating agents and gellants, which had previously proved to be efficient, in its three new projects. The injection of cross-linked polymer composition was successfully piloted at the Suzunskoye field. Samaraneftegaz used a Russianmade innovative polymer composition,

Overview of Production in Regions of Operation

Western Siberia is Rosneft's key oilproducing region. In 2019, Western Siberian assets increased oil and gas condensate production by 1.8% yearon-year, accounting for 60% of the Company's output. The Company's key producing assets in Western Siberia

include RN-Yuganskneftegaz (30% of Rosneft's total oil and gas condensate production), Samotlorneftegaz (8% of total), and RN-Uvatneftegaz (5% of total).

To enhance oil recovery at its fields in Western Siberia, the Company has been monitoring and streamlining its existing development systems by switching from conventional directional wells to horizontal wells drilled using multistage hydraulic fracturing techniques (MSHF HW). This technology significantly increases the well productivity rate and the scope of reserves under

development, while also reducing the well stock and enhancing the project economics. The Company massively leverages MSHF HWs at its mature assets in Western Siberia.

New projects are also underway, with the Russkoye field and the Erginsky cluster standing out as the largest plays.

Western Siberia is also a major gasproducing region, with natural gas production reaching 47 bcm in 2019.

which resulted in a quadrupled increase in technological performance compared to compositions used previously.

For the first time in Russia, Group Subsidiaries operating in the Volga-Urals Region deployed the proppant hydraulic fracturing technology using acid gel to deliver the acid to a significant distance from the borehole for creating a set of fractures and fixing them with proppant in a carbonate formation. Following successful piloting of the technology in directional wells, Orenburgneft effectively drilled carbonate Devonian deposits (initial flow rates exceeded 100 t per day). After testing the technology, Udmurtneft prepared areas for horizontal drilling with multi-stage acid and proppant hydraulic fracturing. Bashneft-Dobycha started to apply acidgel hydraulic fracturing at Bashneft-Dobycha's fields.

In 2019, the Company continued its multi-stage hydraulic refracturing operations in previously drilled horizontal wells to increase the performance of low-permeability structurally complicated pay zones. For example, RN-Yuganskneftegaz carried out 23 jobs of the kind with an average initial incremental oil rate of 25 t per day, 33% higher than the incremental rate in directional wells.

RN-Yuganskneftegaz is the Company's largest asset operating 37 licence areas with Rosneft as the subsoil user. The bulk of proved reserves (80%) are concentrated in the Priobskoye, Prirazlomnoye, Mamontovskoye and Malobalykskoye fields.

Despite the temporary limitations on oil intake by Transneft's trunk pipelines, RN-Yuganskneftegaz produced 69.5 mmt in 2019, virtually flat year-on-year. July 2019 saw oil production of 198 kt per day, an all-time high since 1964. This was partly due to the 1.5x increase in the share of horizontal wells (38% of all new wells in 2019).

RN-Yuganskneftegaz ensures stable production both by drilling new wells and performing well interventions for incremental oil production and by maintaining and enhancing its basic production.

The drilling efforts resulted in a number of industry records, including the first-ever two-string horizontal multilateral well with multiple branches built using the Fishbones stimulation technology. The total length of the well is 5,234 m, with the horizontal wellbore at 2,161 m. The initial oil flow rate exceeded 600 t per day, which is several times higher compared to the neighbouring standard horizontal wells. On top of that, RN-Yuganskneftegaz set another industry record for the fastest two-string horizontal well construction. It took merely 7.44 days to drill such a well at the Salymskoye field, a

20% improvement over the previous record. At the same time, the commercial drilling rate exceeded 14 thousand m per rig per month.

RN-Yuganskneftegaz made significant progress in enhancing the efficiency of well interventions with hydraulic fracturing, which resulted in 1.5 mmt of incremental production (up 27.3% year-on-year). This was achieved by streamlining hydraulic fracturing models, better use of downhole pumping equipment, introducing new software modules and modelling tools (geomechanical modelling under varying stress, proxy modelling, deployment of Eurasia's first-ever domestic hydraulic fracturing simulator, RN-GRID), and improvements in the reservoir flooding system.

Eastern Siberia and the Far East (Onshore)

The Company continues to expand its operations in Eastern Siberia and the Far East. In 2019, these regions produced 41.5 mmtoe of hydrocarbons, including 35.1 mmt of liquid hydrocarbons. The bulk of production comes from the Vankor cluster fields* (52% of total

production in these regions) and Verkhnechonskneftegaz (22% of total)¹ .

In 2019, new projects developed by Vostsibneftegaz and Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha helped increase production by more than 1.5 times year-on-year.

Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha

Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha operates 10 licence areas (including two licence areas as the subsoil user) in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha is currently developing the Central Block and the Kurungsky licence area of the Srednebotuobinskoye oil and gas condensate field, which is one of Rosneft's top-3 assets in the Eastern Siberian oil cluster.

In 2019, Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha increased its production of liquid hydrocarbons by 1.4 times to 4 mmt. The growth was driven by expansion of the company's production capacity under Phase 2 development programme and commissioning of a high-pressure pipeline to transport crude oil from the Srednebotuobinskoye field.

Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha continues to build infrastructure and on-site facilities and to drill horizontal and multilateral wells, including using Fishbones stimulation technology. In December 2019, Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha drilled a 12,792 m long multilateral well with a record 10,310 m long section in the pay zone.

In 2019, the Vankor cluster1 produced 23.2 mmtoe of hydrocarbons, including 18.2 mmt of liquid hydrocarbons.

Since the commencement of commercial production at the Vankor field in August 2009, cumulative oil and gas condensate production has

exceeded 183 mmt on the back of a well intervention programme covering the existing wells and the commitment to drill new wells.

RN-Vankor leverages horizontal wells to develop the Vankor field. In 2019, it commissioned 41 new wells (up 7.9% year-on-year) which produced 0.9 mmt of oil and gas condensate. RN-Vankor increasingly relies on sidetracking, having drilled a total of 41 sidetracks in 2019, which resulted in 204 kt of incremental oil and gas condensate production.

RN-Vankor continues to drill production wells and build top-priority facilities and infrastructure at new fields of the Vankor cluster.

183 mmt of cumulative production since 2009

Verkhnechonskneftegaz

Verkhnechonskneftegaz explores and develops the Verkhnechonskoye oil and gas condensate field. Located in the Irkutsk Region, the field is the second largest in Eastern Siberia. Verkhnechonskneftegaz also operates 12 Rosneft licence areas throughout the Irkutsk Region and the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

In 2019, it produced 8.8 mmtoe of hydrocarbons, including 7.8 mmt of liquid hydrocarbons. The Verkhnechonskoye field is being developed using advanced technologies. There are also ongoing initiatives

to streamline well construction and completion practices, monitor pay zone performance, and optimise operation of infrastructure facilities. The average annual flow rate across new wells reached 80 t per day, up 17% year-on-year.

In May 2019, Verkhnechonskneftegaz started injecting gas into the Preobrazhensky horizon as part of its efforts to select an agent for reservoir pressure maintenance. It continues with well testing to monitor formation pressure dynamics at adjacent observation wells in order to assess post-injection effects. The test results will be produced as early as in 2020.

Progress on the Programme to Increase APG Utilisation Rates

In 2019, the APG utilisation rate for mature assets, excluding greenfield projects and fields under development where gas infrastructure is yet to be erected, reached 93.8%, up 1.0% yearon-year. If greenfield projects at early stages of development are excluded, the APG utilisation rate stands at 89.3%. If fields under development and greenfield projects at early stages of development are included, the APG utilisation rate amounts to 77.8%.

23 APG utilisation facilities were

completed in 2019, including: ▪ 18 MW gas turbine power plant commissioned at Kondaneft's Zapadno-Erginskoye field;

The Company's portfolio of assets with hard-to-recover reserves currently consists of more than 140 fields with 2.9 bt of oil in recoverable reserves. RN-Yuganskneftegaz is Rosneft's key asset of this type boasting over 1 bt of hard-torecover reserves. It is followed by such major players as RN-Nyaganneftegaz, Verkhnechonskneftegaz, RN-Uvatneftegaz and Kondaneft, which together with RN-Yuganskneftegaz account for over 80% of the Company's resource base.

In 2019, the Company added over 260 mmt to its hard-to-recover reserves, a more than sixfold increase year-onyear. The growth was driven by an extensive exploration programme which helped obtain detailed information about formations with low-permeability reservoirs. Successful completion of exploration and pilot development programmes at Rosneft's licence areas in the Samara Region was among the key contributors to the increase.

The Company consistently develops its hard-to-recover oil reserves. Oil production from deposits classified as hard-to-recover reserves under the applicable laws rose by 12% year-onyear to 20.9 mmt, more than a threefold increase vs 2014. The share of hardto-recover reserves rose from 8.4% of the Company's output in 2018 to 9.2% in 2019. In 2019, Rosneft increased the number of production wells at fields with hard-to-recover reserves by 20% yearon-year to 4 thousand wells.

The Company's recoverable reserves of high-viscosity oil in Russia exceed 0.6 bt, including more than 0.4 bt concentrated within the Russkoye field, a unique asset in terms of its resource base size. Compared to 2018, Rosneft doubled its production of high-viscosity oil reaching 1 mmt in 2019. Put on stream in the

Development of Hard-to-Recover Reserves

20.9 mmt of hydrocarbon production from hard-to recover reserves in 2019

fourth quarter 2019, the Russkoye field +12% became the key growth driver.

With a view to doubling production from hard-to-recover reserves in 2017–2022, the Company continued to improve its development technologies, focusing on well stimulation at low-permeability formations, in particular using more sophisticated and longer horizontal wells with a higher number of hydraulic fracturing stages. In 2019, Rosneft drilled over 110 wells at fields with hardto-recover reserves using multi-stage hydraulic fracturing techniques, with horizontal sections exceeding 1 km (up 10% year-on-year). The use of longer horizontal wells with a higher number of hydraulic fracturing stages enables the Company to effectively develop previously unprofitable deposits.

Based on the current forecast, the bulk of subsidised production from hard-torecover reserves will be concentrated in the Western Siberian fields with low-permeability formations of the Tyumen suite and the Achimov deposits. Beyond 2022, though, oil production from hard-to-recover reserves will largely depend on elimination of geological and engineering uncertainties related to appraisal and the choice of best development solutions. To this end, the Company implements an exploration programme coupled with pilot projects aiming to develop lowpermeability formations, the Bazhenov suite and high-viscosity oil deposits as part of the Target Innovative Projects which will help develop an additional 1.6 bt of recoverable reserves. Target Innovative Projects seek to develop technologies to tackle silty sand deposits (structurally complicated undersaturated ultralow-permeability reservoirs), to bring Bazhenov and Domanic shale plays into production, to introduce thermal recovery methods

fit for ultrahigh-viscosity oil fields in the Samara Region, and to develop highviscosity oil reserves of the Pokurskaya suite formations in Western Siberia.

In 2019, the Company drilled six horizontal wells along with 11 directional wells and sidetracks as part of the Bazhen pilot development programme. RN-Yuganskneftegaz performed a ninestage hydraulic fracturing operation on the Salymskoye field's well 921g with a 950 m long horizontal wellbore. The initial flow rate amounted to ca. 60 t per day, on par with international best practices for similar formations. The Company intends to continue exploration and multi-stage hydraulic fracturing operations at the Bazhenov suite in 2020.

Greenfields Development

The Company continues to build up its Vankor cluster leveraging the Vankor field, with the Suzunskoye and Tagulskoye fields up and running. Rosneft is also getting ready to launch the Lodochnoye field, thus completing the cluster integration.

The Company continues making progress on its strategic project in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area – Yugra in a bid to develop the Erginsky cluster which consists of five licence areas (Kondinsky, Zapadno-Erginsky, Erginsky, Chaprovsky and Novoyendyrsky).

Vankor cluster

Erginsky Cluster

• In 2019, the Company continued exploration and well tests at the Erginsky cluster. Development activities are ongoing at the Erginsky licence area and the Chaprovskoye field. As part of its efforts to develop the cluster, Rosneft brought on stream the Kondinskoye and Zapadno-Erginskoye fields.
• Since the start of the project, the Kondinskoye field (the core asset of Kondaneft) has seen 4.6 mmt of oil produced, 438 wells from across 23 well pads commissioned, and key infrastructure facilities launched. Additional expansion of the Malokondinskaya deposit area was confirmed, which will help bring new well pads into development. Moreover, the annual capacity of the central gathering facility was ramped up to 2.8 mmt of crude oil and over 260 mmcm of natural gas, with marketable oil transported to trunk pipelines via a 68 km long feeder pipeline.
• The Erginsky licence area saw completion of the first-phase 3D seismic field work covering 532 sq km. The Company is now processing the field data while also gathering and interpreting geological and geophysical data. Core sampling was conducted at five production wells. The Company retested wells using hydraulic fracturing techniques to confirm formation productivity.
• Production drilling started at the Erginsky licence area, with 40 production wells drilled, including 25 horizontal wells. The Company continues to construct well pads and oil and gas shipment pipelines, to fill feeder roads, and to erect engineering facilities.
• In 2019, Rosneft commissioned 195 new wells and increased production of liquid hydrocarbons from the greenfields of the Erginsky cluster by 74% to 2.8 mmt.

Russkoye Field Development

The Company continues to develop the Russkoye field. In 2019, it drilled and completed 81 horizontal wells, including 23 multilateral and multihole wells. A total of 279 wells have been drilled here, including 49 multilateral wells. As part of pilot tests on multilateral wells, Rosneft conducted geological zoning to rank complex wells to maximise the sweep efficiency at laminated heterogeneous formations. Having launched the Zapolyarnoye metering station, the Company started delivering crude oil from the Russkoye field to Transneft's trunk pipelines. It also commissioned an APG-fired power plant. Compared

to 2018, Rosneft nearly tripled its production of liquid hydrocarbons to 0.8 mmt in 2019. The Company continues production drilling, getting ready to launch the second phase of the Zapolyarnoye metering station, the oil pipeline connecting the central gathering facility and the Zapolyarnoye metering station, as well as an innovative project for self-sufficient preliminary water discharge unit.

As part of its pre-launch efforts on the Severo-Danilovskoye field, the Company is actively building well pads, infield roads, and engineering facilities. The field construction includes drilling

95 wells on 10 well pads, a reservoir pressure maintenance system, and other top-priority infrastructure facilities. The Company commenced construction of a 93 km long oil pipeline which is set

to connect the Severo-Danilovskoye field and the Verkhnechosnkoye field to transport crude oil to oil treatment units and subsequently to trunk pipelines.

New Cluster Based on the Severo-Danilovskoye Field

Liquid hydrocarbons produced in 2019 0.8 mmt threefold increase

The Company is working on its project to develop the Danilovsky oil and gas production cluster which consists of four fields (Severo-Danilovskoye, Yuzhno-Danilovskoye, Verkhneicherskoye and Lisovsky). The dense arrangement of the license areas and the proximity of the Verkhnechosnkoye field will bring meaningful synergies from shared use of the ground infrastructure.

Lodochnoye Field Development

In 2019, Rosneft drilled and completed 14 wells at the Lodochnoye field, including five multilateral wells. In 2019, it produced 0.64 mmt of liquid hydrocarbons hydrocarbon lead. Drilling operations started to develop the largest plays (reserves of the Yakovlev suite). The Company continues production drilling and infrastructure construction to start up key field facilities.

The use of multilateral wells at the Vankor cluster fields enhances the drilling efficiency and boosts the initial flow rate by 40–50%.

Srednebotuobinskoye Field Development

Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha is developing the Central Block and the Kurungsky licence area of the Srednebotuobinskoye oil and gas condensate field, which is one of Rosneft's top-3 assets in Eastern Siberia.

In 2019, production of liquid hydrocarbons at the Srednebotuobinskoye field increased by 1.4 times year-on-year to 4 mmt. The growth was driven by the extensive use of horizontal and multilateral wells, including those leveraging the Fishbones stimulation technology. Multilateral wells proved to be successful in 2019 and the Company decided to roll them out with a view to developing under-gas-cap zones.

In 2019, the operator ramped up water injection volumes for reservoir pressure maintenance from 3.7 to 5.6 mmcm, a 51% increase year-on-year.

On 15 September 2019, the Company marked a new milestone with 100 mmt of oil produced since the commencement of commercial production.

Rosneft continues to construct a highpressure gas compressor for reservoir pressure maintenance and better APG utilisation while also building a gas turbine power plant for internal needs and preparing well pads for drilling.

Severo-Komsomolskoye Field Development

Kuyumbinskoye Field Development

In 2019, the Vostochno-Messoyakhskoye field, a joint project of Rosneft and Gazprom Neft, increased its production of crude oil by 22% year-on-year to 2.7 mmt (attributable to the Company's share). The growth was driven by active drilling operations, new wells going on stream, well interventions on existing wells, and the reservoir pressure maintenance system being deployed. In 2019, 112 new wells were commissioned with an average initial flow rate of 100 t per day. In order to

boost the well productivity rate and the scope of reserves under development, the Company massively leverages multilateral wells, including using the Fishbones stimulation technology, with 42 multilateral wells commissioned in 2019.

The Severo-Komsomolskoye field proceeded with the pilot development programme for the PK1 formation. 20 new horizontal wells were commissioned with horizontal sections of 1.5–2 km and an average initial flow rate of 137 t per day. In 2019, the asset produced 0.4 mmt of liquid hydrocarbons, up 83% year-on-year. Following the analysis of its pilot activities in 2018–2019 and amendments to its geological hydrodynamic model, the Company updated its full-scale development

strategy and targets for the PK1 formation, streamlined well completion practices (with all wells to be equipped with inflow control devices), adjusted project implementation phases with a view to bringing the most proven reserves of the western and eastern areas into production, and developed an exploration and appraisal programme.

The Company and its partner, Equinor ASA, decided to launch Phase 1 of the full-scale Severo-Komsomolskoye field development.

The Kuyumbinskoye field is developed by Slavneft-Krasnoyarskneftegaz, a joint venture of Rosneft and Gazprom Neft. In 2019, it drilled 53 new production wells, up 71% year-on-year. The Kuyumbinskoye field saw its first-ever controlled pressure drilling operation on a horizontal well. Compared to 2018, the Kuyumbinskoye field doubled its production of liquid hydrocarbons to 0.5 mmt in 2019 (attributable to the Company's share).

In April 2019, Slavneft-

Krasnoyarskneftegaz commissioned the central gathering facility with an annual capacity of 1.6 mmt and the oil and gas collecting pipeline connecting the right bank of the Podkamennaya Tunguska River and the central gathering facility. In December 2019, the central gathering facility saw its capacity expanded to 2.9 mmtpa. Rosneft continues to build field facilities and supporting infrastructure.

Development of an Expanded High-Priority Area at the Yurubcheno-Tokhomskoye Field

Vostsibneftegaz is running a project to develop an expanded high-priority area at the Yurubcheno-Tokhomskoye field, located in the Evenki District of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

The choice of best development solutions coupled with quick construction of production facilities and advanced drilling technologies helped Vostsibneftegaz increase its production of liquid hydrocarbons by 76% year-onyear to 4.1 mmt in 2019.

Vostsibneftegaz uses innovations to increase exposure to deposits within the pay zone and enhance the oil recovery rate. Rosneft views the techniques and approaches it tried and tested at the Yurubcheno-Tokhomskoye field as its core solutions, planning to roll them out to other projects.

In 2019, it drilled 39 new wells, up 26% year-on-year. The Company relies on horizontal drilling to effectively develop vuggy fractured reservoir rocks with highly heterogeneous porosity and permeability both along the vertical axis and across the floor area. Some wells demonstrated record-high flow rates in excess of 500 t per day. The Company decided to expand this high-priority area with a view to bringing additional reserves into production.

Vostsibneftegaz continues well testing and logging, keeps streamlining well operations, installing telemetry systems and switching to artificial lift wells with a view to optimising the field development and gathering additional information on wells and deposits.

In January 2019, we launched an inhouse well logging service at Bashneft-PetroTest and started well logging and blasting and perforating operations at Bashneft-Dobycha's fields. This project will help boost the efficiency of the Company's exploration and development activities, reduce the cost of well logging, optimise the amount of log data, and enable import substitution in this area.

In 2019, as part of the Rosneft– Rosatom R&D cooperation, SMIS-172-B multi-parameter logging while drilling tool was tested on five wells of the Severo-Khokhryakovskoye field (Varyeganneftegaz). The system is based on a technology-intensive and environment-friendly induced gammaray spectroscopy module, first of its kind ever manufactured in Russia. The tests produced important data based on which the system will be

finalised for future commercialisation. Following the tests completed in wells of Samaraneftegaz and RN-Krasnodarneftegaz in 2016–2017 as part of the Company's cooperation with Rosatom, the Technology Expert Council of the State Commission for Mineral Reserves issued a positive opinion on possibility of using log interpretation data obtained from this logging tool to substantiate the estimates of hydrocarbon reserves.

In 2019, as part of the efforts to expand its capabilities in solving the most pressing operational issues related to log interpretation, the Company created a development concept and a prototype for RN-PetroLog, proprietary petrophysical modelling software that supports integration with corporate databases, multi-well data processing, and computerised data interpretation.

Corporate Governance

The Russian shelf has the largest area in the world – over 6 million sq km. Rosneft holds the biggest pool of licences on the continental shelf and carries out a full range of exploration operations in the seas of the Russian Arctic, Russian Far East, and the south Russia. The Company's offshore projects lay the groundwork for the future of the modern Russia, spurring sustainable socio-economic development, propelling industry modernisation, fostering high-tech innovation and robotisation, facilitating the upgrade of coastal and transport infrastructure, and unlocking new talent.

Offshore Projects

Rosneft sees hydrocarbon resource development on the continental shelf as a key strategic direction for its growth.

Environmental monitoring

The following environmental protection activities were carried out under licence obligations.

The mouths of previously drilled wells were inspected in the Kara Sea, the Sea of Okhotsk, and the Black Sea. All work was carried out in line with the requirements of the Russian HSE laws. The technical condition of the inspected wellheads was satisfactory, with no hydrocarbon leakages detected.

Artificial reproduction of aquatic biological resources was conducted to compensate for any potential damage to water life and its habitats. While implementing the biodiversity preservation programme for the Company's licenсe areas, we prepared a reasonable list of indicator species to assess the sustainability of Arctic ecosystems and analysed the occurrence rates for various species existing in these areas.

Soil surveys

Soil surveys were performed on the site selected for drilling of an exploration well at the offshore Kaigansko-Vasyukanskoye Sea field near Sakhalin.

The results of comprehensive marine surveys provided full sets of data for well design and construction in the licence areas, including for engineering and environmental protection. Detailed data on soil composition in the area will allow experts to predict geological and geological engineering processes and address risks that might arise during the drilling phase.

Field geology expeditions

The Company continues to develop and update the regional models of Russian and foreign offshore fields located in the areas of its presence and interest (Russia's Arctic, Far Eastern and Southern seas, as well as foreign waters). Three onshore field geology expeditions were organised to mitigate the sub-surface risk related to certain elements of petroleum systems (source rocks for oil and gas, reservoir rocks, and cap rocks) within the Company's offshore licence areas in the Far East and the Arctic, including Sakhalin, the Severnaya Zemlya Archipelago, and the New Siberian Islands. Representative rock samples were collected for laboratory analysis, whose results are used to update the geological model of the region and the survey areas.

Exploration drilling

The well construction at the Vostochno-Pribrezhny licence area was completed in December 2019. The bottomhole depth is 3,047 m. The entire scope of the planned well surveys was carried out, including cased-hole tests. The Dagi suite's oil and gas bearing capacity was confirmed. The State Commission for Mineral Reserves registered the discovery of the Vostochno-Pribrezhnoye field and booked 2.6 mmt of C1+C2 recoverable oil.

2D/3D SEISMIC SURVEYS

In the 2019 field season, Rosneft completed 2D seismic surveys of 250 linear km in the transition zone of the Tsentralno-Tatarsky licence area off Sakhalin Island. The works were carried out ahead of the schedule stipulated by the licence.

3D seismic surveys of 865 sq km were conducted for the Sakhalin-1 Project. 2D seismic surveys of 310 linear km were completed on the Severo-Kaspiyskaya licence area. The seismic findings will provide the basis for informed decisions on further exploration of the licence areas.

Offshore Exploration in Russia

In 2019, in line with its licence commitments, Rosneft continued exploration and prospecting for oil and gas in offshore areas in the Russian Arctic, Far East, and in the seas of the south Russia.

Rosneft owns 55 licence areas on the Russian continental shelf, with an aggregate resource potential of 41 btoe as at 31 December 2019. 19 of these licence areas are located in the waters of the Western Arctic (the Pechora, Barents and Kara seas), nine licence areas in the Eastern Arctic (the Laptev, Chukchi and East Siberian seas), 20 offshore areas in the Russian Far East (the seas of Okhotsk and Japan), and seven licence areas in the seas of the south Russia (the Black, Caspian and Azov seas) (see Figure 1).

Market Overview and Competitive Environment

Efficient implementation of the Sakhalin-1 project continued in 2019.

Rosneft is a member of the project within the consortium that includes ExxonMobil (United States), SODECO (Japan), and ONGC Videsh Ltd. (India). The Company's share is 20%, and the project operator is Exxon Neftegas Limited.

The Sakhalin-1 project involves the development of four offshore fields: Chaivo, Odoptu-Sea, Lebedinskoye (within the Odoptu licence), and Arkutun-Dagi, located in the Sea of Okhotsk on Sakhalin Island's northeastern continental shelf.

State-of-the-art technologies and project management methods are used to develop the Chaivo, Odoptu-Sea, Lebedinskoye, and Arkutun-Dagi fields. At the Odoptu-Sea field, oil is produced from an onshore site using super-extended reach horizontal wells; at the Chaivo field, oil is extracted

Offshore Oil and Gas Production in Russia

from an onshore site and the Orlan platform using wells with recordlength boreholes; while Arkutun-Dagi is developed using Berkut, a fixed offshore platform that features the world's heaviest upper structure.

Record-high output was achieved in 2019, when the Sakhalin-1 project produced a total of over 13,0 mmt of oil and gas condensate (Rosneft's share was 2.6 mmt). Nearly 2.4 bcm of gas (with Rosneft's share of 0.5 bcm) were supplied to consumers.

Oil from the Sakhalin-1 fields is delivered to the Chaivo onshore oil treatment facility on Sakhalin Island and then transported by pipeline to the De-Kastri oil export terminal in the Khabarovsk Territory.

Rosneft started production testing of its Novoye deposit in the Azov Sea in 2016. The field operator for both oil and gas production is Priazovneft, in which Rosneft holds 51%, while Lukoil owns a 49% stake. Field appraisal is underway alongside production. The drilling of Novaya-2 exploration well started in October 2019.

Pilot operation of the offshore Lebedinskoye field in the Sea of Okhotsk began in 2015. It is operated by the Company's subsidiary RN-Sakhalinmorneftegaz. Four production wells are used. Crude oil extracted from the Lebedinskoye field has a quality grade similar to Sokol crude.

The Odoptu-Sea field (the Northern Dome) is Russia's first offshore field brought on stream, flowing oil since 1998. The operator of the oil and gas field is RN-Sakhalinmorneftegaz.

The field's infrastructure comprises oil and gas gathering and treatment facilities, a reservoir pressure maintenance system, outbound pipelines to transport oil, gas and water, and power generation facilities.

We continued to drill new production wells in 2019 in order to maintain the field's recovery rates. Three production wells were drilled and put into operation. One of them is the longest horizontal well in this field. With a huge horizontal displacement, it is 8,699 meter deep. The previous record for well length at this field was set in 2011 at 8,119 meters.

Oil production at the northern tip of the Chaivo field involves five wells that have a unique, complex design and extended horizontal displacement. The wells are equipped with smart completion systems with flow control devices to limit gas breakthroughs and maximise production.

In November 2019, Rosneft achieved a milestone of 7 mmt of crude oil pumped out from the Chaivo field's northern tip since the start of the project.

Kharampur

Also vital to Rosneft's gas business is the project it runs together with BP at the Kharampurskoye field. Its objectives include conventional gas production from the Cenomanian deposit and the pilot and then full-scale development of the Turonian deposit. The Company has the expertise and experience to deliver such complex projects efficiently.

As at 1 January 2020, the field's АВ1С1+В2С2 recoverable natural gas reserves, including the Turonian deposit, were close to 1 tcm.

Once it reaches the design capacity, annual gas production is expected to be around 11 bcm, with a potential to expand to 25 bcm later.

In 2019, construction of key facilities remained in the active phase:

• construction and installation at the gas treatment unit involved placing foundation piles, pouring concrete,
• and assembling steelwork; ▪ construction and installation progressed at the gas shipment pipeline, with drilling started for the second Vasseyakha River crossing;
• 57 out of 61 project wells were drilled; ▪ geological data research and collection continued for a well put into pilot operation at the Turonian
• deposit; ▪ gas well cluster engineering facilities and feeder roads were completed; construction of gas gathering networks and fit-up of well pads and power facilities continued.

Plans

The near-term plans include:

• completion of gas production infrastructure for the Cenomanian deposit;
• completion of key facilities (the gas treatment unit, gas shipment pipeline, etc.);
• completion of the feasibility study for the full-scale development of the Turonian deposit and proceeding to the FEED stage.

The project launch is scheduled for 2021.

Research was also in progress at the Kharampurskoye field to study the geological structure and production potential of the Berezovskaya suite's lowpermeability gas reservoirs. The Company has developed methodologies and

Russian and foreign cutting-edge technologies ensure more efficient production at Rospan. For the first time in the Company's history, two horizontal wells were drilled in 2019 using multistage hydraulic fracturing and the HiWAY technique to enable production from reservoir edges and speed up the overall development, effectively boosting technical gas recovery by 2.1%.

Plans

Completion and launch in 2020.

In line with its approved strategy, the Company focuses on high-ROI projects. Our key priority is to launch such projects within budget and on schedule, so that we can produce more than 100 bcm of gas annually by 2022 and increase the share of gas in total hydrocarbon production.

Sibneftegaz

This is our biggest gas-producing asset for the moment.

It produced 11.4 bcm of natural gas in 2019, with the cumulative gas output reaching 125 bcm by the year end.

As at 1 January 2020, its АВ1С1+В2С2 recoverable reserves amounted to 532 bcm of gas and 31 mmt of gas, crude oil and gas condensate.

In 2019:

▪ production drilling continued; ▪ essential production facilities under

construction included:

• – a gas and condensate treatment unit and related infrastructure for the development of the Beregovoye field's lower horizons;
• – a booster compressor station at the Beregovoye field.

Plans

The facilities are to be launched in 2020.

Thanks to production maintenance projects at the existing fields and the non-capital-intensive development of the Beregovoye field's lower horizons, annual gas output in the period until 2022 is expected to exceed 15 bcm.

Key Results of 2019 (Oil Refining)

In 2019, the Company's oil refining activities were aimed at satisfying the demand for quality petroleum products.

In the reporting year, Rosneft's Russian refineries processed 100.1 mmt of oil. The total oil refinery throughput (including foreign assets) stood at 110.2 mmt. In the fourth quarter, Russian refineries' throughput amounted to 25.5 mmt, with the year-on-year change attributable to the repair cycle.

The refining depth and light product yield in 2019 was 74.4% and 57.6%, respectively.

The Company continued to expand its range of environmentally-friendly fuels. In May 2019, the Ryazan Refinery launched the production of AI-95-K5 Euro-6 gasoline to supply the Moscow Region with greener fuel. The Komsomolsk and Ufa refineries started producing RMLS, a low-sulphur marine fuel compliant with the IMO standards that went into effect in early 2020. The fuel contributes to

minimising the bunker's environmental footprint. The Ufa Refinery also began the industrial production of AI-100 high octane gasoline using a proprietary technology.

The first batch of hydrotreating catalysts suitable for Euro-5 compliant diesel fuel underwent industrial tests at Rosneft's Ufa group of refineries. This is the firstever hydrotreating agent capable of fully replacing its foreign analogues for the Russian refining industry. The tests proved that Rosneft's proprietary catalyst was fit for the production of diesel fuel compliant with all the latest technical requirements. The catalyst is on par with the best foreign peers and even superior to them in some aspects.

Rosneft continues to implement the existing facility maintenance initiatives and refinery upgrade programmes. The total spending on Oil Refining maintenance

and upgrade projects under IFRS in the reporting year amounted to RUB 43.8 bln. The Company remains focused on highly efficient projects to debottleneck the refinery configuration by overcoming production and technical constraints, and developing bitumen production, as well as increasing operational efficiency and reducing operating costs.

Oil Refining Assets in Germany

Rosneft Deutschland GmbH(RDG)

The Company entered the German petroleum product market in 2011 when it acquired a 50% stake in Ruhr Oel GmbH (ROG) joint venture. Following ROG reorganisation in 2016, Rosneft gained direct control over more than 12% of Germany's oil refining facilities with a total throughput of about 12.8 mmtpa. The Company became a shareholder in three major refineries: Bayernoil (12.5%), MiRO (12%), and PCK Schwedt (35.42%). It then doubled its shares in the refineries' equity to 25%, 24% and 54.17%, respectively. At the same time, BP accumulated 100% shares of the Gelsenkirchen refinery.

In December 2019, Rosneft Deutschland closed the deal to acquire 3.57% of shares in Bayernoil Raffineriegesellschaft mbH Refinery from BP Europa SE, increasing its stake to 28.57%. As a result, the Company saw its share in the refining capacities of the Bayernoil Refinery grow to almost 3 mmtpa, its total throughput in Germany now reaching 12.8 mmtpa, which strengthened its positions both in Bavaria, one of the largest industrial regions of Germany, and Austria.

Rosneft is the third largest player in the German oil refining market. Operating activities are carried out by its subsidiary, Rosneft Deutschland GmbH, which was established in 2017. Rosneft supplies almost a quarter of crude oil imports to Germany – ca. 23 mmtpa.

On 1 January 2019 Rosneft Deutschland GmbH initiated the direct sales of petroleum products manufactured at the three German refineries partially owned by Rosneft. The product mix includes motor gasoline, diesel fuel, light heating oil, jet fuel, LPG, bitumen, heavy marine fuel and petrochemical products. The Company is a leader in the German petroleum wholesale market.

Apart from direct supplies from its refineries, the Company uses over 30 export terminals to deliver petroleum products by road, rail, and river. The Company's customer base includes more than 500 enterprises in Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, Austria, and France.

In 2019, Rosneft Deutschland increased sales of polymer-modified bitumen (PMB) Alfabit by 37.5% year-on-year. Alfabit is a high-tech material featuring high elasticity and wear resistance. Rosneft Deutschland began supplying Alfabit to German consumers in 2018, shortly after the start of sales and marketing of bitumen in the country. The Company also established a supply chain for PMB in Germany using feedstock from the PCK, Bayernoil, and MiRO refineries.

In 2019, Rosneft Deutschland supplied Alfabit PMB and other bitumen products to KUTTER GmbH & Co. KG for the construction of an extended runway at the Memmingen (Allgäu) Airport in Bavaria. The products were used to lay about 57 kt of asphalt on 165 thousand sq m of airport land. Thanks to its strategically located shipping terminals and the flexibility of the logistics system, Rosneft Deutschland was able to supply bitumen within a very short time.

Over the past year, the company's customer base has grown by 30%, with bitumen products delivered to Poland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, France and other countries.

Apart from that, Rosneft Deutschland signed contracts on into-plane fuelling with airports in Munich and Berlin (Tegel and Schönefeld) as part of its jet fuel market share expansion in Germany.

Work is under way at the Angarsk Plant of Catalysts and Organic Synthesis to build a production unit for platinum-containing reforming catalysts and gasoline isomerisation catalysts. Scheduled for commissioning in the first quarter of 2021, the unit with a capacity of 600 tonnes per year is designed to improve the quality of reforming and

gasoline isomerisation catalysts. It also intends to reduce platinum losses, increase production reliability and safety, and ultimately meet the need of all Russian refineries for such catalysts.

Novokuibyshevsk Catalysers Plant

In 2019, the Novokuibyshevsk Catalysers Plant launched Russia's first-ever advanced pilot testing facility for hydrotreating catalysts. The new facility is aimed at testing technologies to manufacture new catalysts designed by Rosneft's and Russian R&D providers

with a view to ramping up large-scale production. Using the pilot facility's equipment, the plant can test both specific production stages and the complete production cycle of aluminabased catalysts.

At present, there are eight pilot batches of various types of new catalysts (catalysts for diesel fuel hydrotreatment, deep hydrodesulphurisation of vacuum gasoil, isodewaxing, hydrofinishing of diesel fractions, diolefin hydrogenation, hydrodemetallisation, and silicon traps) developed by corporate R&D units (RN-TsIR and VNII NP) for the use in various oil refining processes.

Buzulukskoye Gas Processing Plant

In 2019, the BGPP, which includes two standalone production facilities, the Pokrovskaya Gas Treatment Unit and the Zaykinskoye GPP, processed 1,054.8 mmcm of associated petroleum gas and unstable gas condensate

derived from the oil and gas fields of Orenburgneft. Its main products are combustible natural dry stripped gas, liquefied gases such as industrial propane-butane, motor propanebutane, industrial propane, and industrial butane, as well as stable natural gasoline and industrial sulphur.

Currently, an investment project is under way to build a 1.2 mmcm gas desulphurisation unit at the Zaykinskoye GPP, which will enable the BGPP to process additional volumes of sulphur associated petroleum gas from the prospective licence areas of Orenburgneft.

Shkapovskoye Gas Processing Plant

In 2019, the ShGPP, part of Bashneft, processed 46.2 mmcm of associated

Oil sales

Rosneft pursues a policy aimed at ensuring a balanced mix of oil monetisation channels, including refining at its own facilities in Russia and Germany, export sales under longterm contracts, tender-based spot transactions and domestic sales.

The Company continuously monitors the cost efficiency of its oil monetisation channels to maximise the share of highmargin channels in its overall sales structure.

In the reporting year, the Company supplied about 100.1 mmt of oil to Russian refineries. In addition to shipments to its refineries in Russia during 2019, the Company supplied 2.8 mmt of own oil to German refineries where it holds a stake.

The total sales to third parties in 2019 amounted to 155.0 mmt, including 5.6 mmt of oil sold domestically.

Oil Exports to FSU and Non-FSU Countries

In the reporting year, Rosneft's FSU and non-FSU oil exports totalled 149.4 mmt. Eastbound exports, in particular pipeline supplies to China and sales via the Kozmino and De-Kastri ports, are the most profitable for the Company. In 2019, supplies in eastern direction, including international trading, reached 79.7 mmt, up 35% yearon-year. Oil produced in Russia accounted for 53.9 mmt of these supplies (up 7% year-on-year), with another 25.8 mmt sold through international trading units, which represents an almost threefold increase year-on-year. In addition, the Company exported 61.0 mmt of oil to

Commerce and Logistics

Northwestern, Central, and Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean and other non-CIS countries, while also shipping 8.7 mmt to the CIS.

The bulk of crude oil is exported via the Transneft system, including the trunk pipeline network and ports. In the reporting year, we primarily exported crude oil via the following channels:

• Pipeline: approximately 114.4 mmt (76.6% of total FSU and non-FSU exports), with 49.5 mmt of this volume shipped via ports, and around 64.9 mmt through pipelines to China, Belarus, and Central and Eastern Europe;
• Rail and mixed transport: 2.2 mmt, accounting for 1.5% of total exports, excluding the effect of asset acquisition. These were mainly supplies via the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) running from the Tengiz field in Western Kazakhstan to the port of Novorossiysk;
• Other, including shipments through the De-Kastri export terminal: 4.0 mmt.

Rosneft joined the CPC in 1996. It holds a 7.5% stake in the project via Rosneft Shell Caspian Ventures Ltd., a joint venture between the Company (51%) and Shell (49%).

Oil Supplies under Long-Term Contracts

In 2019, the Company continued supplying oil to China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) under the China-Russia government agreement. The supplies, which total 40.0 mmtpa, including 10.0 mmt transported through Kazakhstan, enable Rosneft to retain its presence in this strategic export market.

Expanding Cooperation with Oil and Petroleum Product Consumers

In 2019, the Company continued to focus on end-consumers, with exports exceeding 72 mmt.

In an effort to maintain and strengthen cooperation, we signed a two-year contract with PKN Orlen S. A. to

supply oil to Poland via the Druzhba pipeline. We also obtained a three-year extension for the existing contract with this company to ship oil to refineries in the Czech Republic. Furthermore, Rosneft made an agreement with JXTG Nippon to supply ESPO and Sokol crude in 2020.

We continue to foster collaboration with end-consumers of petroleum products.

Breakdown of Exports, %

In 2019, we shipped 0.7 mmt of stable natural gasoline to JXTG Nippon.

The Company steps up domestic sales of vacuum gasoil processed at TANECO and Orsknefteorgsintez refineries. Over the year, we supplied 27.4 kt of this product.

KEY ACHIEVEMENTS

• In 2019, eastbound oil supplies, including international trading, soared 35% to 79.7 mmt, with around 58.3 mmt shipped to China, up 17% year-on-year.
• Shipments under a long-term contract with CNPC, our key counterparty, remained robust at 40.0 mmtpa.
• Rosneft's trading subsidiaries shipped 28.7 mmt of third-party oil to non-FSU countries, many times more than in 2018.

Operating Results

Export Sales of Petroleum Products

In 2019, export sales of petroleum products totalled 70.1 mmt¹ .

Rosneft makes regular wholesale shipments of light and dark oil products to Mongolia. In 2019, we supplied 1.3 mmt of light petroleum products, up 0.2 mmt from the previous year.

The Company continues to focus on expanding its international footprint and diversifying its sales routes. During the summer shipping season in 2019, we used our fleet to export diesel fuel directly from the Syzran and Saratov refineries to a foreign port on CFR terms. This arrangement helped us maximise the use of its own tanker fleet and avoid the cost of additional transshipment at sea ports.

Petroleum Products Sales

Domestic Sales of Petroleum Products

In 2019, domestic sales of petroleum products totalled 42 mmt, up 2.2% year-on-year2 .

Rosneft is Russia's largest motor fuel exchange trader. In 2019, we traded extensively in petroleum products. The share of Rosneft (including the Ufa group of refineries) in total sales during the main session stood at:

• 47.7% for motor gasoline;
• 36.4% for diesel fuel;
• 51.9% for fuel oil.

The Company exceeded on-exchange sales targets set by a joint order of the Russian Federal Antimonopoly Service and the Russian Ministry of Energy dated 12 January 2015. The reporting year saw 24.8% of total motor gasoline, 9.8% of diesel fuel, 14.7% of kerosene, and 3.4% of fuel oil from Rosneft refineries (including the Ufa group) sold on the exchange vs the required 10%, 5%, 10%, and 2%, respectively.

As requested by our counterparties, we supplied motor fuel in full and on time under the Northern Supply Haul programme.

Sales of Petroleum Products to FSU Countries

In 2019, Rosneft maintained stable and uninterrupted tanker supplies of petroleum products to Armenia, shipping 234.7 kt of high-quality gasoline and diesel fuel to the country from its Russian refineries (up 34% year-on-year).

We also supply gasoline and diesel fuel to RN-Kyrgyznefteprodukt, our sales subsidiary in the Kyrgyz Republic, for resale via its own retail network and wholesale channels. In 2019, petroleum product shipments totalled 100.9 kt.

We continued to supply petroleum products to the retail network in Georgia, with volumes reaching 180.5 kt, up 37 kt from the previous year.

Meeting federal customers' demand

Meeting federal customers' demand for petroleum products is our key priority under the corporate policy. In 2019, Rosneft and its subsidiaries fully delivered on their obligations to supply petroleum products to federal customers. Next year, we will continue working in this area.

Rosneft supplies natural gas, dry stripped gas, and associated petroleum gas to consumers in Russia and abroad.

Associated petroleum gas is processed at the Company's own gas processing plants and by third parties, such as SIBUR Holding and Surgutneftegas.

Under the contact with Gazprom, we use its transportation system to supply the bulk of natural and dry stripped gas to end-consumers and regional sales companies in almost 40 Russian regions. On international markets Rosneft mainly sells natural gas in Egypt and Vietnam.

Our long-term goal is to become a leading independent gas supplier on the domestic market.

In 2019, Rosneft's domestic natural gas deliveries were 59.92 bcm while sales amounted to RUB 200.4 bln.

The Sverdlovsk Region remains our key region in terms of gas sales. Our supplies cover approximately 82% of local gas

Gas sales

demand from both industrial facilities

and residents.

International gas deliveries amounted to 4.85 bcm, with the bulk of the product coming from the Zohr field.

In 2019, gas sales grew by 10.7% to RUB 258.8 bln mainly due to increased exports and a 1.4% indexation of gas prices for industrial consumers from 1 July 2019.

To maximise gas monetisation, Rosneft has developed a commodity transport flow optimisation system used for calculating the operational gas balance.

We continued trading in natural gas at the St Petersburg International Mercantile Exchange (the exchange launched gas trading in 2014). In 2019, we sold 0.06 bcm, which represents 0.5% of the total trading volume.

As at the year-end, Rosneft's retail sales covered 66 Russian regions. We operate the largest and most geographically diverse retail chain in Russia, holding a leading position in most regions. We also have retail chains in Abkhazia, Belarus, and Kyrgyzstan. Rosneft is a leading Russian fuel brand in terms of recognition and quality perception.

As at 31 December 2019, the Company's retail chain comprised 3,069 filling stations, including 63 in Belarus, Abkhazia, and Kyrgyzstan. Our own and leased filling stations operated 2,079 shops. Over the same period, the Company had 132 oil depots with a combined capacity of 2.2 mmcm and approximately a thousand gasoline tanker trucks in operation.

In 2019, Rosneft closed a deal to acquire a 100% equity stake in Petersburg Fuel Company. As a result, Rosneft established itself as a leader in one of its key regions, while also expanding its retail chain to 3,069 filling stations as at the year-end.

Petroleum product retail sales increased by 6% year-on-year to 14.5 mmt, mostly driven by the use of fuel cards (+16%), and average sales per filling station came in at 13.1 t per day.

In accordance with its retail business strategy, the Company took the following steps:

• expanded the Family Team and BP Club loyalty programmes to cover 13.6 million people in 64 regions as at 31 December 2019;
• launched virtual BP Club and Family Team cards issued via a mobile app to eliminate the need for a plastic card;

• continued to expand the food offering in cafés at filling stations by creating self-service areas and installing hot dog rollers. As at 31 December 2019, we served coffee at 2,530 outlets and hot dogs at 1,450 outlets, with self-service areas and coffee corners available at 780 outlets. Our retail stations saw hot drink revenue and non-fuel revenue for the year increase by 6% and 2% year-on-year, respectively;
• carried on with the Active Sales programme, with sales targets set for key product categories at each filling station;
• staged over 100 nationwide promos of various types at Rosneft, BP and Bashneft filling stations to boost nonfuel sales;
• completed a project to overhaul 14 existing BP filling stations with a focus on the café offering, opened five additional small-size filling stations in the Moscow Region and Tver. The refurbished filling stations feature a single customer service area which accommodates a Wild Bean Café and a fuel section;
• arranged for private label products (water, chocolate bars, wipes, and screen wash) to be sold at 35 subsidiaries;
• performed over 9,000 checks at the filling stations in 47 Russian regions as part of the ongoing fuel quality assessment using mobile laboratories;
• In 2019, the Federal Agency for Technical Regulation and Metrology (Rosstandart) conducted 32 independent inspections across Russia, which covered 4 oil depots and 74 retail stations. The inspections confirmed the high quality of our motor fuel.

Improvements in Retail Business Efficiency

In 2019, the Company continued with phased automation of all material flow measurements and introduction of a monitoring system keeping track of inventories at subsidiaries. As at 31 December 2019, we automated measurements at 81 oil depots and more than 2,900 filling stations and

and merchandise from other FMCG

players; ▪ developing digital communication

channels at filling stations to acquire

new customers and enhance customer experience.

In 2019, the Company continued to improve the efficiency of its retail business by optimising administrative costs and operating costs at filling stations and oil depots. Despite an increase in variable storage and transportation costs driven by a 9% rise in retail sales, we managed to reduce unit operating costs by 3% year-on-year.

As part of our efforts to improve the efficiency of oil depot facilities, we shut down seven underperforming

provided measuring instruments for 99% of material flows at filling stations and 79% at oil depots.

To ensure sustainable demand and maximise retail and wholesale customer loyalty, we will focus on:

• developing a risk-based fuel quality management system across the supply chain, from refinery to consumer;
• implementing an electronic system to guarantee the quality and quantity of petroleum products delivered in gasoline tanker trucks;
• expanding the fuel offering in regions where Rosneft operates its retail chain;
• expanding the non-fuel offering, including private label products

depots that did not meet its technical requirements. We also cut transportation costs by optimising the logistics of direct petroleum product supplies from refineries using tanker trucks. In 2019, we increased direct supply volumes by 4% year-on-year.

Macroeconomic Environment in 2019

GDP

According to January 2020 estimates from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), global economic growth in 2019 (PPP¹ GDP in constant 2011 prices) slowed down to 2.9% year-on-year (3.6% year-on-year in 2018). GDP growth rates in developed economies dropped from 2.2% year-on-year in 2018 to 1.7% yearon-year in 2019 while slipping in emerging markets from 4.5% year-on-year to 3.7% year-on-year.

The global GDP growth was largely halted by a cyclical economic slowdown in developed economies (above all in the USA and the European Union) and escalation of trade conflicts.

According to OECD data, GDP growth in the USA slowed down to 2.3% yearon-year in 2019 on the back of lower investment activity. As the economy was slowing down, the U.S. Federal Reserve

started loosening its monetary policy by cutting its key interest rate by 25 bps three times in 2019 to 1.5–1.75% p. a. as at the end of December 2019.

According to an initial assessment from OECD as at the end of January 2020, GDP growth rate in the Eurozone went down from 1.9% year-on-year in 2018 to 1.2% year-on-year in 2019, driven by weaker consumer spending and external demand for European goods amid rising protectionism in global trade.

As a result of slower economic growth and inflation dropping from 1.8% to 1.2%, the European Central Bank (ECB) lowered its deposit rate in September 2019 by 10 bps to –0.5% p. a., announced that it would resume purchasing assets for EUR 20 bln per month starting from November and extended the maturity of targeted longer-term

refinancing operations (TLTRO) from two to three years.

Export-oriented economies were adversely affected by changes in trade agreements and the newly imposed trade restrictions. In particular, GDP growth in Germany slowed down from 1.5% in 2018 to 0.6% in 2019.

According to OECD data, GDP growth in the UK slightly accelerated to 1.4% (vs 1.3% in 2018). The growth was mainly driven by consumer spending and government consumption. The effect from capital investments remained very marginal.

GDP growth rate in Japan rose from 0.3% in 2018 to 0.7% in 2019 on the back of higher consumer spending and government expenditures as well as private investment in housing construction.

In 2019, emerging markets demonstrated the lowest GDP growth rates since the global meltdown in 2008– 2009. Some of the emerging economies suffered from a slump in commodity prices and geopolitical tensions all over the world.

The Chinese economy continued to slow down as its growth rate dropped to 6.1% year-on-year in 2019 (the lowest value in the last 28 years), which was driven by shrinking net exports of goods and services amid the unfolding trade conflict with the USA and halted domestic demand as a result of tougher financial sector regulations.

GDP growth rate in India decelerated from 6.8% in 2018 to 4.8% in 2019. The sluggish economic growth was due to reduced investment activity.

GDP growth in Brazil slowed down from 1.3% in 2018 to 1.1% in 2019. Mexico was facing stagnation with a zero GDP growth (2.1% year-on-year in 2018). Overall, GDP growth rates in Latin America and the Caribbean fell from 1.1% year-on-year in 2018 to 0.1% in 2019, mainly due to downturns caused by lingering structural challenges in some countries.

The Middle East and Central Asia suffered a major setback (with GDP growth rates going down from 1.9% in 2018 to 0.8% in 2019, including Saudi Arabia descending from 2.4% to 0.2%). So did the European emerging markets (climbing down from 3.1% in 2018 to 1.8% in 2019).

In January 2020, the IMF cut its global growth outlook for 2020 from 3.3% (vs 3.4% projected in October 2019). The coronavirus pandemic caused the OECD to review its global GDP growth forecast for 2020 to 2.4% in the base-case scenario. In 2021, GDP growth is expected to recover to 3.3%.

According to IMF estimates, global trade saw a major slowdown from 3.7% yearon-year in 2018 to 1.0% year-on-year in 2019, which was caused by heightening political and commercial contradictions between the USA and China.

The growth rates of trade in goods and services in developed economies dropped from 3.2% year-on-year in 2018 to 1.3% year-on-year in 2019 while sinking in emerging markets from 4.6% year-on-year to 0.4% year-on-year. As projected by the IMF, global trade will accelerate to 2.9% year-on-year in 2020 and 3.7% year-on-year in 2021¹ . The growth will be mainly driven by a further rise in domestic demand, with capital investments prompting investment imports.

Russian Economy

In 2019, the Russian economy slowed down. According to an initial assessment from the Federal State Statistics Service (Rosstat), the Russian GDP rose by 1.3% year-on-year in 2019 (vs 2.5% year-onyear in 2018).

The slowdown was solely attributable to shrinking exports, with the entire GDP growth in 2019 driven by a 2.6% increase in domestic demand for Russianmade goods for both consumer and investment purposes.

In addition, gross capital accumulation, including both fixed and working capital, was growing marginally and still struggling to reach its pre-crisis state, also resulting in a weaker economic growth.

Amid a stronger rouble and expanding domestic demand, imports of both investment and consumer goods and services increased by 2.2% in 2019 (vs 2.6% in 2018).

In physical terms, export volumes dropped by 2.1% (up 5% in 2018). The OPEC+ agreement on production cuts remained in effect, somewhat holding down Russia's exports.

According to Rosstat data, the following sectors were the largest contributors to the GDP growth in 2019: financial and insurance services (0.4 p.p.), natural resources (0.3 p.p.), manufacturing industry and trade (0.2 p.p. each), and transportation and storage (0.1 p.p.).

Investment demand was sluggish, which resulted in a lower gross value added (GVA) in construction (contributing 0.02 p.p.) and a shrinking GVA in machinery manufacturing.

In 2019, the country's GDP was negatively affected by a shrinking GVA in real estate transactions (down 0.1 p.p.),

Russian Exports, USD bln

mainly through FX purchases in the domestic market under the fiscal rule.

In 2019, the unemployment rate and the number of those employed both continued on a descending trajectory. In December 2019, employment amounted to 72.4 mln people, down 0.2 mln yearon-year. In the medium term, shrinking manpower is likely to hinder the country's economic growth.

In December 2019, the unemployment rate dropped to 3.5 mln people, down 0.2 mln year-on-year.

As a result, the unemployment rate was 4.6% of economically active population, down 0.2 p.p. year-on-year. Russia enjoys the lowest unemployment rate in its modern history.

In 2019, real household income grew 1.5% year-on-year (vs 1.1% year-on-year in 2018) while real disposable income

added 0.8% year-on-year (vs 0.1% yearon-year in 2018). According to Rosstat, income growth continues to lag behind real wages, which rose by 2.9% year-onyear in 2019.

According to the Bank of Russia's basecase scenario as at February 2020, Russia's GDP will grow by 1.5–2.0% in 2020. The growth will be mainly driven by higher government investment spending as national projects are gaining traction.

The Russian economy is projected to accelerate up to 1.5–2.5% in 2021 and 2.0–3.0% in 2022 on the back of gradually accruing positive effects from planned budget initiatives and national projects, if successful. However, the growth in 2021–2022 will be halted by a potentially weaker external demand with Russian exports struggling to increase by 2.0–2.5% in 2021 and 2.5–3.0% in 2022.

mostly due to fewer residential properties going on stream. On top of that, the GDP was impacted by lower activities in healthcare and social services (down 0.1 p.p.) as a result of contracting federal budget expenditures.

As a result, Russia's economic growth was mainly driven by private domestic demand, which translated into more jobs and higher real wages. Large-scale government expenditures were key to maintaining macroeconomic stability.

According to the Federal Customs Service of Russia, exports of Russian goods ¹ in value terms in 2019 amounted to USD 422.8 bln. As compared to 2018, exports of goods declined by USD 26.8 bln, or 6.0% year-on-year.

The Russian exports contracted in 2019 mainly due to exports of fuel and energy resources dropping by USD 24.5 bln amid decreasing prices for crude oil and natural gas.

Exports of goods were also negatively affected by metals and metalware (down by USD 6.1 bln), lumber and pulp and paper (down by USD 1.1 bln), machines, equipment and vehicles (down by USD 0.7 bln), food and soft commodities

(down by USD 0.2 bln).

2019 saw a steep increase in exports of gems and jewellery (up by USD 5.1 bln).

Exports of crude oil in value terms in 2019 shrank by 6.0% to USD 121.4 bln, exports of petroleum products dropped by 14.5% to USD 66.9 bln, exports of natural gas, including liquefied natural gas (LNG), slipped by 9.0% to USD 49.6 bln. In 2019, crude oil and petroleum products accounted for 56.3% of total exports,

down 2.0 p.p. year-on-year.

As at 1 January 2020, Russia's international reserves rose by USD 85.9 bln

Energy Prices, Foreign Exchange Rates and Inflation in Russia

In 2019, the annual average Brent price was USD 64.3 per barrel, down 9.5% year-on-year1 .

Throughout 2018, global oil prices were driven by mixed trends. In January through April 2019, oil prices were rising (with the monthly average Brent price increasing from USD 59.5 per barrel in January to USD 71.3 per barrel in April) on the back of production cuts by both OPEC countries under the OPEC+ agreement and. In May through August, oil prices were declining (with the monthly average Brent price slipping from USD 71.1 per barrel in May to USD 59.0 per barrel in August) as risks were rising for global demand amid the escalating trade conflict between the USA and China. In September, oil prices saw a spike (with the monthly average Brent price reaching USD 62.8 per barrel) as a result of production cuts by Saudi Arabia following a drone attack. However, Saudi Arabia quickly restored oil production and the Brent price dropped to USD 59.7 per barrel in October against the backdrop of concerns about a global economic slowdown.

In November, the monthly average Brent price bounced back to USD 63.0 per barrel as the trade row between the USA and China eased up. In December, prices rose to USD 67.0 per barrel following the OPEC+ agreement on further production cuts starting January 2020.

Amid continued geopolitical tensions and new sanctions against Russia, the Russian national currency was weakening in 2019. According to the Bank for International Settlements, the annual average nominal USD/RUB exchange rate declined by 3.0% to RUB 64.73 per USD in 2019.

As at the end of December 2019, the nominal USD/RUB exchange rate appreciated by 11.8% year-on-year to RUB 62.27 per USD as at 31 December 2019, driven by higher oil prices, the Fed cutting its interest rate, and buoyant demand for Russian financial assets (with the share of non-residents in the federal loan bonds market rising by 7.8 p.p. to 32.2% as at 1 January 2020, according to the Bank of Russia).

As at the end of December 2019, inflation stood at 3.0% year-on-year (vs 4.3% in 2018), which is below the 2019 target of 5.0–5.5% set in the Monetary Policy Guidelines for 2019–2021 published by the Bank of Russia. The main driver behind the declining inflation in 2019 was the nominal rouble appreciation, given

a significant share of imported goods in household consumption (ca. 36%). 2019 saw a certain slowdown in private consumption, which was also driving down inflation in Russia.

By contrast, the annual average consumer price index rose to 4.5%

year-on-year in 2019 (vs 2.9% year-onyear in 2018).

According to the Bank of Russia's projections as at February 2020, inflation will stand at 3.5–4.0% in 2020 and remain at ca. 4% in 2021–2022 in line with the Bank of Russia's monetary policy.

In 2019, the annual average industrial producer price index in Russia was 102.9% (vs 111.9% in 2018). As at December 2019, producer prices went down by 4.3% year-on-year (up 11.7% year-on-year in 2018), mainly driven by lower prices in the extractive industry, which dropped by 9.2% year-on-year (up 20.7% year-on-year in 2018¹ ).

The freight rate index was 1.5% year-onyear as at December 2019 while the annual average index stood at 2.8%.

Output of Liquid Hydrocarbons by Region, mmb per day

¹ Demand for liquid hydrocarbons hereinafter refers to consumption of petroleum products from oil and gas condensate; consumption of oil as fuel;

• and consumption of hydrocarbon components from unconventional sources (biofuel, GTL, CTL, etc.). ² Excluding Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
• ³ 14 member countries as at 31 December 2019.
• ⁴ Including production in other countries, global biofuel output, and volume growth during refining.
• ⁵ December 2018 vs December 2017.
• ⁶ Output of liquid hydrocarbons hereinafter refers to production of crude oil, gas condensate, gas condensate liquids, and production of hydrocarbon components from unconventional sources (biofuel, GTL, CTL, etc.). Global production of liquid hydrocarbons includes volume growth during refining.
• ⁷ 14 member countries as at 31 December 2019.

In 2019, the global market had an oversupply of 0.5 mmb per day, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Amid strong growth in crude oil production in the USA (driven mostly by shale production) and sluggish growth in global demand in the first and second quarters of 2019, the global market had 0.9 mmb per day of excess supply. In the third and fourth quarters of 2019, a slowdown in US production and rise in consumption of liquid hydrocarbons2 caused the global oversupply to go down to 0.1 mmb per day.

Global demand for liquid hydrocarbons slowed down in 2019 alongside an increase in global GDP and reached 0.8%, according to the IEA (1.1% in 2018). Global demand for liquid hydrocarbons came in at 100.0 mmb per day. The growth in 2019 was driven by Asia (85% of the increase) and FSU countries (13%). These two regions accounted for 36% and 5% of global demand for liquid hydrocarbons respectively.

According to the IEA, global production of liquid hydrocarbons3 increased by 0.2% year-on-year to 100.5 mmb per day in 2019.

In the USA, production of liquid hydrocarbons continued its strong momentum (10.8% growth year-on-year) and reached 17.2 mmb per day, with production of crude oil and gas condensate adding 11.3% year-on-year and hitting 12.2 mmb per day.

A considerable rise in production of liquid hydrocarbons in 2019 was also seen in Brazil (up by 6.8% year-on-year to 2.9 mmb per day) as a result of continued development of subsalt offshore fields. In Canada, the momentum of liquid hydrocarbons production decelerated to 2.6% year-on-year (compared to more than 8% year-on-year in 2018), with output totalling 5.5 mmb per day.

In China, 2019 production climbed 1.9% year-on-year to 3.9 mmb per day.

Improved crude oil production in the USA and other countries was mostly offset by lower output of liquid hydrocarbons in the OPEC countries 5 (both as part of the OPEC+ agreement and as a result of the sanctions). Total production of liquid hydrocarbons in the OPEC countries in 2019 went down by 5.0% year-on-year to 35.5 mmb per day, with crude oil production dropping by 5.8% year-on-year to 30.0 mmb per day.

As part of the OPEC+ agreement to cut production, Saudi Arabia reduced its supply of liquid hydrocarbons by 4.2% year-on-year to 11.8 mmb per day, with crude oil production shrinking by 5.1% year-on-year to 9.8 mmb per day. Lower annual average output in Saudi Arabia was also due to an attack of drones and missiles on the country's oil infrastructure, causing a temporary suspension of 5.7 mmb per day of production. According to IEA, Saudi Arabia's production of liquid hydrocarbons dropped by 8.2% month-on-month in September 2019 to 10.9 mmb per day, with crude oil production declining by 7.9% monthon-month to 9.0 mmb per day.

The UAE also delivered a considerable growth in production of liquid hydrocarbons among the OPEC countries: the increase totalled 5.5% year-on-year, to 4.0 mmb per day, with crude oil production improving by 6.0% year-on-year to 3.2 mmb per day.

Mexico, which is also a party to the OPEC+ agreement on production cuts, saw its 2019 output of liquid hydrocarbons go down by 7.0% year-on-year to 1.9 mmb per day.

In December 2019, commercial crude inventories in OECD1 countries totalled around 1.1 bln barrels, which is a 0.2% increase vs December 2018.

In its March report, the IEA expects global demand for liquid hydrocarbons to go down by 0.1% year-on-year in 2020 to 99.9 mmb per day as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) forecasts a 1.0 mmb per day oversupply of liquid hydrocarbons globally in 2020 before the market moves towards a state of shortage (0.4 mmb per day) in 2021. According to EIA estimates, global demand for liquid hydrocarbons in 2020 will grow by 0.4% year-on-year to 101.1 mmb per day, with global output of liquid hydrocarbons improving by 1.5% year-on-year to 102.1 mmb per day.

Global Gas Market

In 2019, global demand for gas went up by 2.4% year-on-year to 3.93 tcm.² Stronger gas consumption worldwide is supported by toughened environmental policies adopted by many countries, including as a way to curb CO2 emissions, along with the development of gas infrastructure and transportation solutions, also as liquefied natural gas (LNG). Lower prices in regional gas markets contributed a lot to the gas consumption growth across the globe.

The strongest rise in demand for gas in 2019 was seen in the Asia-Pacific Region and Europe. The Asia-Pacific Region posted an increase in gas consumption by 5.0% year-on-year in 2019 (an increase of 41.0 bcm) to 866.3 bcm (22.1% of global gas consumption), mainly driven by China, Indonesia, and Australia. In Europe, consumption improved by 4.2% year-on-year (up by 21.8 bcm) to 535.6 bcm (13.6% of global gas consumption), which is attributable to weaker gas prices in the region as a result of oversupply of both LNG and pipeline gas. Demand for gas in North America, which is the largest gas consumer in the world, went up by 2.3% year-on-year in 2019 and reached 1.05 tcm (26.8% of global gas consumption).

In Latin America, 2019 gas consumption grew by 0.5% year-on-year to 179.9 bcm (4.6% of global gas consumption), while Africa saw a reduction of 0.5% year-onyear to 150.9 bcm (3.8% of global gas

consumption).

of global output was attributable to North America, which delivered a 7.0% increase year-on-year, taking 2019 gas production to 1.13 tcm (as a result of a record high gas output level in the USA). Around 22% came from Russia and the CIS, Middle East accounted for 17%, and the Asia-Pacific Region had a share of 16% in global gas production. In Europe, gas output went down by 3.6% year-on-

year to 222.5 bcm.

Every year approximately 33% of natural gas produced globally is exported. In 2019, gas exports are estimated³ at some 1.3 tcm. Around 65% of global gas exports are transported by pipelines and 35% as LNG. Russia, the world's largest gas exporter, accounted for approximately 20% of gas exports globally in 2019 (260.4 bcm according to the Federal Customs Service of Russia and CDU TEK; or around 242 bcm under European standards; an increase of 5.2% year-on-year).

In 2020 and 2021, global growth in gas demand5 will be down to 1.3% and 0.7% respectively, with gas consumption standing at 3.98 tcm and 4.01 tcm.

In 2019, global LNG exports increased by 12.7% year-on-year and reached 358.5 mmt (or 494.4 bcm). LNG accounted for 12.5% of global gas consumption in 2019 (vs 11.2% in 2018).

Stronger demand for LNG in 2019 was mostly driven by Europe, where LNG exports went up by 75.3% year-onyear to 87.4 mmt, with the UK posting a growth of 2.7 times year-on-year to 13.3 mmt and France of 92.9% yearon-year to 16.3 mmt. In the Asia-Pacific Region, LNG imports expanded by 2.9% year-on-year to 247.8 mmt, including a 13.9% year-on-year growth in China (to 62.5 mmt). Japan, the world's largest importer of LNG, reduced its purchases by 6.8% year-on-year to 77.3 mmt.

The Middle East and North Africa¹ saw a notable reduction in its demand for LNG, which was down by 27.5% yearon-year to 7.0 mmt as a result of gas fields developed in Egypt and also higher imports of pipeline gas to Jordan from Egypt and Israel. Following the commissioning of the Zohr field, Egypt became

fully self-sufficient in gas and ceased LNG imports in October 2018. The field is being developed by an international consortium, where Rosneft has a share of 30%.

A major component of the export growth in 2019 were new LNG trains coming on stream:

• first and second trains of the Corpus Christi LNG plant with a capacity of 4.5 mmtpa, first train of the Freeport LNG facility with a capacity of 5.1 mmtpa, fifth train of the Sabine Pass LNG plant with a capacity of 4.5 mmtpa, and first train of the Cameron LNG project with a capacity of 4.0 mmtpa in the USA. As a result, the USA became the leader by absolute growth in LNG exports in 2019 (an increase of 13.8 mmt to 34.8 mmt, or 65.4%; 9.7% of global LNG exports);
• commissioning of the second train of Ichthys LNG with a capacity of 4.45 mmtpa, and the Prelude floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility with a capacity of 3.6 mmtpa.

In 2019, Australia considerably increased its output (by 11.4% yearon-year to 76.5 mmt; 21.3% of global LNG exports), coming close to Qatar, the market's long-standing leader;

▪ ramp-up to full capacity of the third train of the Yamal LNG plant with a total capacity of 5.5 mmtpa2 in Russia (in 2019, LNG production in Russia grew by 54.7% year-on-year to 29.3 mmt; 8.2% of global LNG exports).

Qatar's export volumes recovered (by 1.4% year-on-year to 78.3 mmt) to the 2016 level, making up 21.8% of global LNG exports.

2019 saw a record-breaking number of final investment decisions³ on LNG plant projects: FIDs were approved for total capacities of 70.4 mmtpa, including Golden Pass LNG in the USA (15.6 mmtpa), Arctic LNG 2 in Russia (19.8 mmtpa) and Mozambique LNG in Mozambique (12.9 mmtpa).

Long-Term Forecast for Hydrocarbon Demand

Technological progress has been opening up new opportunities for the energy sector and energy needs of humankind at large. Energy transition and climate change are reshaping the way we think about the global energy sector going forward. All sources of energy, including renewable energy, have inherent limitations. The potential to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy sources is limited by considerable technological weaknesses of the latter, i.e. low energy flux density and intermittency. According to top global energy agencies, oil and gas producers, consulting companies4 , and forecasts by Rosneft, until 2040, hydrocarbons will remain the pillar of the global energy industry, with their share in the world's energy mix staying largely unchanged. While oil5 will continue dominating other resources in the energy mix worldwide, its share, along with that of coal, will be declining in favour of natural gas, nuclear energy, and renewable energy sources.

By 2040, global demand for oil will grow by more than 700 mmt vs 2018, exceeding 5.2 bt. Key growth drivers will be countries of the Asia-Pacific Region, which in 2040 are expected to account for some 37% of the world's demand for oil, or over 1.9 bt.

of 1.9% year-on-year to 14.6 mmt (2.6% of Russia's total production) due to improved output in the Astrakhan Region (including offshore production, up by 5.3% year-on-year to 11.3 mmt; 2.0% of Russia's total production).

In 2019, production in the Northwestern Federal District continued to decline (down by 1.3% year-on-year to 31.2 mmt; 5.6% of Russia's total production), mostly as a result of dwindling output in the Nenets Autonomous Area (down by 3.2% year-on-year to 16.0 mmt; 2.9% of Russia's total production) and the North Caucasian Federal District (down by 6.2% year-on-year to 1.0 mmt; 0.2% of Russia's total production) predominantly as a result of lower output in the Stavropol Territory (down by 8.1% year-on-year to 0.7 mmt; 0.1% of Russia's total production). Production

also went down in the Siberian Federal District (down by 3.5% year-on-year to 51.3 mmt; 9.1% of Russia's total production), mostly due to lower output in the Krasnoyarsk Territory (down by 2.8% year-on-year to 23.9 mmt; 4.3% of Russia's total production), Irkutsk Region (down by 3.1% year-on-year to 17.9 mmt; 3.2% of Russia's total production), and Tomsk Region (down by 5.6% year-on-year to 9.1 mmt; 1.6% of Russia's total production).

In 2019, Russian oil and gas condensate refining volumes decreased by 0.6% year-on-year to 285.1 mmt, while oil exports increased by 3.3% year-onyear to 266.2 mmt. The export share in total oil and gas condensate production totalled 47.5% in 2019 (up by 1 p.p. year-on-year).

Evolution of Oil and Gas Condensate Production by Federal District, mmt

Russian Oil and Gas Condensate Exports and Refining, mmt

The increase in oil and gas condensate exports was driven by supplies to countries outside the CIS growing by 3.7% year-on-year to 248.6 mmt. Almost 64% of export volumes to countries outside the CIS were transported by sea (around 158.9 mmt), including 19.1% via Primorsk and 13.3% via the Kozmino oil

port. Oil and gas condensate exports to CIS countries declined by 2.4% year-onyear to 17.6 mmt in 2019 as a result of reduced supplies to Belarus (down by 2.2% year-on-year to 17.6 mmt) and discontinuation of shipments to Uzbekistan (vs 36 kt in 2018).

Oil demand will go down in North America (to 896 mmt in 2040) and Europe (to 527 mmt in 2040), with these two regions making up approximately 17% and 10% of global demand for oil respectively.

Until 2030, natural gas will be outperforming all other energy sources in terms of increase in global demand in absolute terms.

Global demand for gas will be adding an average of 1.5% a year, reaching almost 5.5 tcm by 2040 and accounting for more than a quarter of the global energy mix. Strong growth in demand for gas will be supported by its superior environmental performance as compared to other fossil fuels.

Gas consumption is expected to increase in all regions except Europe. In the forecast period, the Asia-Pacific Region will be the largest region by oil consumption, with its demand going up by 756 bcm vs 2018 to almost 1.6 tcm, exceeding the level of consumption in North America (1.3 tcm in 2040, an increase of 198 bcm against 2018). North America will remain the leader in

natural gas production (1.6 tcm of gas in 2050, 30% of global production). The most considerable rise in gas output (around 25% of the global increase) in

the forecast period will be seen in the Middle East (over 930 bcm in 2040).

Russia is a top three oil producer globally (alongside the USA and Saudi Arabia). In 2019, oil and gas condensate production in Russia stood at 560.3 mmt, up by 0.8% year-onyear. The growth was due to the December 2018 decision of the OPEC+ agreement to increase oil output target. For Russia, the production target was raised from 10.96 mmb per day to 11.22 mmb per day.

The main contributors to the production growth were the Ural Federal District (up by 1.0% year-on-year to 310.1 mmt; 55.3% of Russia's total production), Far Eastern Federal District (up by 5.8% year-on-year to 33.3 mmt; 5.9%

of Russia's total production), and Volga Federal District (up by 1.4% year-on-year to 118.9 mmt; 21.2% of Russia's total production). In the Ural Federal District, crude oil production increased in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Area (up by 6.1% year-on-year to 61.5 mmt; 11.0% of Russia's total production) and declined in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area (down by 0.2% year-on-year to 236.0 mmt; 42.1% of Russia's total production) and the Tyumen Region (down by 0.2% year-on-year to 12.5 mmt; 2.2% of Russia's total production). In the Far Eastern Federal District, oil and gas condensate production went up in the Republic of Sakha (up by 10.7% yearon-year to 13.5 mmt; 2.4% of Russia's

total production) and the Sakhalin Region (including offshore production, up by 2.6% year-on-year to 19.8 mmt; 3.5% of Russia's total production). In the Volga Federal District, oil and gas condensate production increased in the Orenburg Region (up by 3.9% year-onyear to 21.7 mmt; 3.9% of Russia's total production), Samara Region (up by 2.6% year-on-year to 16.1 mmt; 2.9% of Russia's total production), Republic of Tatarstan (up by 0.8% year-on-year to 36.7 mmt; 6.5% of Russia's total production), and the Perm Territory (up by 1.8% year-on-year to 16.0 mmt; 2.9% of Russia's total production). In the Southern Federal District, oil and gas condensate production saw an increase

Rosneft supplies gas to industrial consumers, households, and municipal utilities.

Rosneft's selling prices for end consumers are not regulated by the Government and are based on agreements with customers. Wholesale prices of gas produced by Gazprom and its affiliates and sold to domestic consumers are used as a benchmark. The prices are determined by orders of the Federal

Antimonopoly Service of the Russian Federation (regulated gas price).

Current wholesale prices of gas for all categories of Russian consumers were set by Order of the Federal Antimonopoly Service No. 583/19 dated 13 May 2019 (for consumers other than households) and No. 580/19 dated 13 May 2019 (for households). In accordance with the Orders, gas prices for all categories of consumers were subject to indexation of 1.4%.

Regulated gas prices in Russia differ by region, generally depending on the distance from the gas production hub in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Area.

The indexation benchmark for regulated gas prices is the Forecast of Social and Economic Development of the Russian Federation published by the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation.

Indexation of Regulated Prices (Tariffs) for Infrastructure Sector Products (Services) for 2020–2021, %

Wholesale price indexation for households	July 0.3%	July 0.3%

As the owner of the Unified Gas Supply System, Gazprom provides independent companies with services of gas transportation via trunk gas pipelines. The transportation charges are set by the FAS (previously by the FTS)⁵ . Gas transportation service prices are based on a tariff consisting of two fees, one for the use of gas pipelines and the other for gas pumping. The pipeline usage fee is set for the distance between the pipe inlet and outlet points, while the pumping fee depends on Gazprom's handling and transportation costs. Current tariffs were approved by Order of the FTS No. 216e/1 dated 8 June 2015 and were not indexed in 2016–2019.

Gazprom also provides independent gas producers with underground gas storage services. The main gas consumption regions currently have 25 underground gas storage facilities. Their usage fees are non-regulated and are set by Gazprom on a case-by-case basis for each facility for the duration of the storage season (from 1 April to 31 March of the next year). Rosneft relies on underground gas storage facilities to offset fluctuations in gas consumption by end consumers.

In recent years, the domestic gas market has seen increased competition for consumers and a gradually expanding share of independent gas producers in the total volume of domestic gas sales.

The St Petersburg International Mercantile Exchange (SPIMEX) was launched on 24 October 2014 pursuant to an instruction of the Presidential Commission for Strategic Development of the Fuel and Energy Sector and Environmental Safety. In 2019, the Exchange continued to develop organised trade in natural gas. Trading is based on three balancing points (Nadym, 622.5 Km (Lokosovo), and Parabel) with next month deliveries of natural gas.

In 12M 2019, natural gas sales under exchange-traded contracts stood at 12.9 bcm, with total sales since the launch of SPIMEX now exceeding 70 bcm.

Hydrocarbon Exploration and Production

Rosneft is the largest oil and gas company in Russia and a leader in terms of reserves and hydrocarbon liquid production among global peers whose shares or depositary receipts trade on international stock exchanges. Resource sustainability, including the size of reserves, reserves-to-production ratio and efficient reserves management, is one of the key investment highlights of an oil and gas company.

For many years, we have been steadily building up our reserves of commercially recoverable hydrocarbons. This was possible thanks to our consistent efforts to increase production from brownfields and launch new fields and prospects, as well as to our successful exploration operations. We pay special attention to exploration and sustainable reserves growth at the existing licence areas, with resource base integration and expansion being key focus areas at our new assets.

As at 31 December 2019, the Company's reserves under the PRMS (Petroleum Resources Management System) standards, according to DeGolyer & MacNaughton, totalled 47,289 mmboe (6,400 mmtoe) in the 1P category, 84,926 mmboe (11,504 mmtoe) in the 2P category, and 125,296 mmboe (16,976 mmtoe) in the 3P category. In 2019, total 3P reserves grew by over 4 bboe (550 mmtoe).

An upward revision of reserves estimates and the full replacement of hydrocarbon production in 2019 were due to successful exploration and production drilling and the use of advanced recovery enhancement techniques to extract hard-to-recover reserves, among others. The key contributors to the reserves base were the fields of RN-Yuganskneftegaz, RN-Nyaganneftegaz,

and Varyeganneftegaz along with assets

in Eastern Siberia.

For years, Rosneft has invariably maintained a high reserve replacement ratio (reserve replacement cost in 2017–2019 was USD 0.3 per boe). In 2020–2022, we intend to replace no less than 100% of our hydrocarbon production. The Company also plans to fast-track the development of new reserves by reducing

Under the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) classification, Rosneft's proved hydrocarbon reserves totalled 42,018 mmboe (5,678 mmtoe) as at 31 December 2019. Compared to the end of 2018, our hydrocarbon reserves grew by 587 mmboe (81 mmtoe), or 1%. We engaged DeGolyer & MacNaughton to conduct a life-of-field audit of the reserves.

As at the year-end, Rosneft's SEC-proved reserve life exceeded 20 years, and the SEC-proved organic reserve replacement ratio stood at 129% in 2019 and 163% in 2017–2019.

For several years now, Rosneft has surpassed the world's public oil and gas majors in terms of SEC-proved reserve replacement ratio. At the same time, we boast high exploration and production efficiency and maintain traditionally low finding and development costs.

Corporate Governance

Severo-Komsomolskoye fields to in crease the output through organic growth.

In furtherance of the Russian President's instruction to increase the cargo flow along the Northern Sea Route, we are preparing for a large-scale hydrocarbon production project, which will set the stage for a comprehensive development of the new oil and gas province in the Krasnoyarsk Territory's north (Vostok-Oil project). Together with our partners, we will build a unique world-class oil and gas cluster in this location.

To ensure production growth in the long run, we create an optimal portfolio of major greenfield projects, while also us ing advanced production technologies at our existing fields. Technology advance is a key focus area of the Rosneft–2022 Strategy and a powerful driving force be hind our competitiveness.

To develop our technological capabil ities, we keep rolling out cutting-edge techniques that help expand the pay zone coverage, increase flow rates, and optimise well and infrastructure construction. As part of our digitalisa tion efforts, we launched the Digital Field information system covering all

preparation timelines, accelerate viabil ity-based resources to reserves conver sion, and make exploration drilling in Russia more successful.

The Company accounts for 41% of the total oil production of Russia and for ap proximately 6% of the global oil output. On top of that, we boast the highest 10 year average production growth among peers.

Rosneft is Russia's leading petroleum company in terms of launching new projects. In 2016, we put on stream a number of large fields, including Suzunskoye, Yurubcheno-Tokhomskoye, Kondinskoye, Tagulskoye, Russkoye, Srednebotuobinskoye (Phase 2), Zapadno-Erginskoye, Vostochno-Messoyakhskoye and Kuyumbinskoye. We also made great progress in de veloping RN-Yuganskneftegaz mature fields, our key asset, and the fields of Samaraneftegaz, RN-Nyaganneftegaz and Varyeganneftegaz. At Samotlor, we optimised production decline rates. In the medium term, we plan to enhance production from mature fields and develop new high-poten tial oil and gas projects, including the Vankor, Erginsky and Danilovsky clus ters, Rospan, Kharampurskoye and

key oil production and logistics pro cesses at the Ilishevskoye field in the Republic of Bashkortostan. The exper tise gained in the course of the pilot project will be rolled out at all of our fields. RN-UfaNIPIneft, part of Rosneft's research and design cluster, developed the first commercial software suite for geomechanical modelling of drilling operations – RN-Sigma. It enables the Company's engineers to capitalise on wider applications of geomechanical calculations for borehole stability and reduce the risk of complications while drilling directional and horizontal wells.

Pursuant to our plans to diversify our portfolio of production assets and imple ment international upstream projects, we are expanding production outside Russia. In particular, we keep developing production blocks in Iraqi Kurdistan un der the Production Sharing Agreements signed in October 2017. In the first quar ter of 2019, we piloted production at Block 11 of the Bejil field. By taking part in the development of the unique Zohr field together with Eni (a 50% stake) and BP (a 10% stake) – global energy majors and our strategic partners – we were able to promptly step up gas production abroad and penetrate the Egyptian mar ket with a view to further strengthening our foothold both in the country and the entire region. June 2018 saw Mubadala Petroleum join the project. The field was put on stream in December 2017, and in August 2019, five months ahead of schedule, it reached the full design ca pacity of 76 mmcm per day.

Market Overview and Competitive Environment

Rosneft is the largest refiner in Russia. Its refining business includes 13 large refineries, as well as petrochemical and gas processing plants in five federal districts – Central, Volga, Southern, Siberian, and Far Eastern. The Company's oil refining operations are focused on the strategic task of supplying high-quality petroleum products to the Russian domestic market, including remote regions. The Achinsk, Komsomolsk, and Angarsk Refineries are the key suppliers of motor fuels for the Eastern Siberian and the Far Eastern regions, ensuring uninterrupted supply and curbing price growth that would inevitably be the case if petroleum products were delivered from Central Russian refineries. In 2019, as the largest supplier of motor fuels to the Far Eastern Federal District, Rosneft ensured stability of small-scale wholesale and retail prices in the region through building up its supplies (+15% vs. 2018). However, the Far Eastern increment to the damper was not introduced after all since there were no executive orders by Russia's Government and Federal Antimonopoly Service that would set forth the procedure for its application.

In general, unlike those of most of the Russian producers, the Company's oil refineries are located far from export markets, which limits the economic efficiency of oil refining. Meanwhile, the Company continues its efforts to connect the refineries to Transneft's oil trunk pipeline system. In the third quarter of 2019, a 8 mmt oil pipeline section between the ESPO and the Komsomolsk Refinery was commissioned. The completion of this project will enable he Company to enhance the reliability of petroleum product supplies to the Far Eastern Federal District. The project was financed under a long-term tariff agreement with Transneft, with the total investment for connecting the Komsomolsk Refinery to

the trunk pipeline system amounting to RUB 50 bln.

The oil refineries continue upgrade and maintenance projects related to their existing capacities. In March 2019, the Ryazan Refinery, a subsidiary of Rosneft, completed the upgrade of a catalytic reforming unit, replacing reactors on the reformer. As a result, the octane grade of the motor gasoline component increased to 97 according to the research method. Moreover, the unit was switched to a three-year run between repairs, significantly improving its economic, environmental and safety performance.

As an environmentally responsible company, Rosneft is consistent in improving and expanding the development and output of high-tech petroleum products with enhanced environmental performance.

The Company was the first in Russia to start the production and sale of Euro 6 gasoline in 2018, gradually expanding the sales geography in 2019. Currently, Euro 6 gasoline is offered at 727 filling stations of Rosneft in the Republic of Bashkortostan, Krasnodar Territory, Republic of Adygeya, Tula, Kaluga, Ryazan and Vladimir Regions,in Moscow and the Moscow Region, as well as in small-scale wholesale quantities. The Ufa Refinery launched the production of AI-100 motor gasoline. Retail sales of AI-100 gasolines have started in the Republic of Bashkortostan, Republic of Mordovia, Orenburg, Sverdlovsk, Bryansk, Voronezh, Lipetsk, Orel, Penza, Rostov, Archangelsk, Samara and Ulianovsk Regions, and also in the Krasnodar Territory.

In 2019, the Komsomolsk Refinery started the production of RLMS, a low-sulphur marine fuel compliant with the IMO 2020 requirements.

Refining and Commerce

In March 2019, RN-TsIR (a Rosneft R&D unit), with the help of RN-Lubricants, patented a know-how to produce ecofriendly technical TDAE (treatment distillated aromatic extract) oil, which is used for the production of synthetic rubbers, tyres, and industrial rubber products. This know-how will enable the Company to become a leading producer and supplier of safe and high-quality TDAE oil for the production of synthetic rubbers, tyres and industrial rubber products.

Rosneft's Innovation Development Programme is aimed at substituting imported technologies for the production of high-quality petroleum products. Its key objective is for the Company's refineries to start using catalysts produced in-house in order to mitigate the exposure to foreign-made products, cut refining costs and boost the competitiveness of Rosneft's refining segment.

Currently, the Company's specialist enterprises play a key role in the import substitution programme for additives and catalysts. In particular, the Angarsk Plant of Catalysts and Organic Synthesis, the Novokuibyshevsk Catalyst Plant, RN-Kat and corporate R&D units (RN-TsIR and VNII NP) develop and manufacture samples of high-tech products for the oil refining industry.

In 2018, the Company started using catalysts made by the Angarsk Plant of Catalysts and Organic Synthesis at hydrogen units of the Kuibyshev Refinery and the Ryazan Refinery. Before that, Angarsk Plant's catalysts replaced foreign-made steam methane reforming analogues at hydrogen units of Bashneft-Ufaneftekhim Bashneft-Novoil and Syzran Refinery. The share of own steam reforming catalysts in the production of hydrogen at the Company's refineries reached 77% in 2019.

The Ryazan Refinery has started using Angarsk Plant's catalysts to produce Euro 5 gasoline, as well as innovative Euro 6 and AI-100 gasoline grades.

In 2019, RN-Kat, Rosneft's specialist catalyst production subsidiary, conducted industrial tests at the Company's Ufa refineries on the first batch of hydrotreating catalysts suitable for Euro 5 compliant diesel fuel. This is a unique hydrotreating agent capable of fully replacing its foreign peers for the Russian refining industry.

The Digital Plant system is being rolled out as part of Rosneft–2022 Strategy with a focus on qualitative changes across all business segments. In 2019, the Digital Plant was tested and

implemented on units and systems at the refineries in Komsomolsk-on-Amur, Novokuibyshevsk, Ryazan, and Syzran.

Rosneft is an active player in the domestic and foreign oil and petroleum product markets and Russia's largest oil exporter. Its crude oil is exported to European, Asia-Pacific, and CIS countries, sold on international markets, and supplied to the Company's own refineries in Russia and abroad.

In general, the Company continues diversifying its oil supply channels, while increasing crude oil exports to the east. Amid growing competition in the oil market, the Company is focused on boosting export volumes under longterm contracts, including oil supplies to China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) and supplies to Europe under direct contracts. In 2018, Rosneft signed long-term contracts with Grupa Lotos to supply from 6.4 mmt to 12.6 mmt of oil to Poland and with Total Oil Trading to supply from 4.8 mmt to 10.8 mmt of oil to Germany. The Company also captures opportunities of expanding partnerships through short-term contracts. In November 2018, Rosneft and China National Chemical Corporation (ChemChina) signed a contract to supply up to 2.4 mmt of ESPO crude annually via the port of Kozmino. Thanks to the contract, the Company can increase direct oil supplies to China, which is a strategic market for Rosneft. It also signed annual contracts with Shell and Eni to export 3.9 mmt of crude oil to Germany,

Market Overview and Competitive Environment

and with Socar Trading to supply up to 1 mmt of oil to Socar's Turkish refinery. The Company continues its cooperation with the Republic of Belarus, and in 2019 it signed contracts with Naftan, Belarusian Oil Company and Mozyr Oil Refinery to supply them with up to 8.7 mmt of oil. In February 2017, Rosneft also signed a contract with the government of Iraqi Kurdistan for sale and purchase of oil in 2017–2019. This contract expands the Company's trading opportunities and bolsters the efficiency of supplying feedstock to Rosneft's refineries abroad.

The Company is consolidating its competitive position in the European market through the operation of its German refineries. As of 1 January 2017, following the restructuring of the ROG joint venture with BP Plc Rosneft's indirect interest in the Bayernoil Refinery increased from 12.5% to 25%, in the MiRO Refinery from 12% to 24%, and in the PCK Refinery (Schwedt) from 35.42% to 54.17%. The Gelsenkirchen Refinery is now fully controlled by BP Plc. In December 2019, Rosneft Deutschland closed the deal to acquire 3.57% of shares in Bayernoil Raffineriegesellschaft mbH oil refinery from BP Europa SE, increasing its stake to 28.57%. As a result, the Company saw its share in the refining capacities of Bayernoil Refinery grow to almost 3 mmtpa, its total throughput in Germany now reaching 12.8 mmtpa, which strengthened its positions both in Bavaria, one of the largest industrial regions of Germany, and in Austria. Rosneft is currently the third largest player in the German refining market. Its capacities provide, on average, oil refining depth of 93% and refinery complexity of 9.0, according to the Nelson Index.

The local operator is Rosneft Deutschland GmbH. This subsidiary manages the supply of crude to Rosneftowned refineries (PCK Raffinerie GmbH, MiRO, Bayernoil) and the sales of petroleum products.

Rosneft is consistent in its expansion efforts in the Asia-Pacific Region. Rosneft closed a strategic deal to acquire a 49% stake in Essar Oil Limited in August 2017 (Nayara Energy Limited since June 2018). The acquisition of a stake in the best-inclass asset with a significant upside potential enabled the Company to enter the oil refining market of India, one of the fastest growing emerging markets. The Vadinar Refinery strategy is currently being shaped, with a focus on the setup of petrochemical production and entry to the Indian petrochemical market. In March 2019, Nayara Energy Limited launched its first high-tech railway terminal for fuels and lubricants. Located in Wardha, the state of Maharashtra, it has an area of over 200 thousand sq m and a capacity of about 16 mln litres. Petroleum products will be supplied from the Vadinar Refinery, the state of Gujarat. Thanks to the unique location of the railway terminal, Nayara Energy will be able to meet the needs of customers and partners operating in the eastern Vidarbha region of Maharashtra. As an environmentally responsible company, Nayara Energy has launched a 300 kVA solar power plant at the terminal. The power plant is designed to generate 450 thousand kWh per year.

Rosneft's main competitors in Russian oil exports are vertically integrated companies such as LUKOIL, Surgutneftegas, Gazprom Neft, and Tatneft. Meanwhile, all Russian oil producers have their own export schedule for oil transportation outside the Russian customs zone based on equal access to the oil trunk pipeline system and seaport terminals. Key competitors supplying other crude oil grades to export markets are international and national oil companies such as Shell, ВР, ExxonMobil, Chevron, Total, Equinor, Saudi Aramco, NIOC, etc.

The Company consistently supplies petroleum products to the domestic market in required quantities. Rosneft is a major player in the Russian wholesale motor gasoline and diesel fuel market. The Company expanded its Russian retail chain to 3,006 filling stations at yearend 2019, offering petroleum products in all federal districts. The Company relies on extensive proprietary and third-party infrastructure to market and distribute petroleum products (oil depots, filling stations), which takes into account the capacity of regional markets and consumer demand. The Rosneft

trademark is one of the most recognisable for petroleum products across the regions where the Company operates and is associated with quality fuel on sale at filling stations.

In 2019, despite a year-on-year decrease in refining volumes in Russia due to major overhauls at the refineries in Saratov, Syzran, Kuibyshev, Tuapse and Achinsk, Rosneft increased supplies of Euro 5 gasoline to the domestic market against a backdrop of a negative domestic gasoline premium. Other Russian oil refining companies mostly cut their volumes of Euro 5 gasoline supply to the domestic market.

The Company exports its petroleum products, just like crude oil, to European, Asia-Pacific, and CIS countries. Its competitive advantage lies in its ability to maintain stable relations with foreign partners, and, specifically, expand and renew petroleum product supply contracts. In partnership with Petrocas Energy JV, in which Rosneft holds a 49% stake, the Company ships petroleum products to the Mediterranean market, primarily to Turkey and Greece. In the first quarter of 2017, Rosneft and Turkey's Demiroren Group Companies signed a product supply agreement for 2018–2020. In 2019, the actual supply volume amounted to 0.6 mmt of diesel fuel with ultra low sulphur content of 10 ppm. As the Company seeks to expand cooperation with end consumers, it signed a contract with Japan's JXTG Nippon for the supply of over 0.7 mmt of gasoline and gas mixture in 2019. In the first half of 2018, the Company signed long-term contracts for the supply of gasoline and diesel fuel with Mongolia's largest importers of petroleum products. The total value of contracts amounts to USD 2.1 bln. For over 10 years on the Mongolian fuel market, Rosneft has boosted its share to 80%.

On 1 January 2019, Rosneft Deutschland GmbH initiated the direct sales of petroleum products manufactured at the three German refineries partially owned by Rosneft. The product mix includes gasoline, diesel, heating oil, jet fuel, LPG, bitumen, fuel oil and petrochemical products. The company is a leader in

the German petroleum product wholesale market. The company supplies petroleum products directly from three German oil refineries partially owned by Rosneft, as well as from over 30 German terminals by road, rail, and river. The company's customer base includes more than 500 enterprises in Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, Austria, and France.

Over the past year, the company's customer base has grown by 30%, with bitumen products delivered to Poland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, France and other countries.

Apart from that, Rosneft Deutschland has signed contracts on into-plane fuelling with airports in Munich and Berlin (Tegel and Schönefeld) as part of its jet fuel market share expansion in Germany. Rosneft Deutschland owns a stake in the PCK Refinery

in Brandenburg, which produces ca. 300 ktpa of jet fuel, accounting for almost a half of the total kerosene consumed at Berlin airports.

Alongside Rosneft, Russian oil majors LUKOIL, Surgutneftegas, Gazprom Neft, Tatneft and other oil companies offer petroleum products in the domestic market. Key competitors in export markets include transnational oil companies Shell, ВР, Total, ExxonMobil, Chevron, etc.

The Company is also developing its gas business, with a focus on production technologies, efficient gas monetisation by building a portfolio of long-term supply contracts and participating in LNG production projects as well as in Russia's gas motor fuel development programme, and the work to create equal conditions for access to infrastructure facilities and consumers.

Developing an NGV filling station network in Russia is one of Rosneft's key priorities in the retail business and one of the most important focus areas, since it enables the Company to expand its competitive advantages in the domestic market. In November 2018, Rosneft and Beijing Gas Group Company Limited (Beijing Gas) signed a joint venture agreement for construction and operation of an NGV filling station network in Russia based on Vankorskoye UTT. Under the terms of this agreement, Beijing Gas will own a 45% stake in the JV. The parties are planning to build about 170 NGV filling stations in Russia. They will also be considering options for using LNG as a motor fuel.

Rosneft is also building up its trading potential and trading competencies in the international LNG market.

Operational and Financial Efficiency

The reporting year was marked by a number of events that had a significant impact on the Company's production volumes, including the extension of OPEC+ agreement, as well as the incident with high levels of organic chlorides found in Transneft's network in April, leading to major failures in trunk pipeline operation. In spite of that, high efficiency and rational allocation of exploration and production capex in 2019 ensured a balanced output growth through new projects and stimulating production at mature fields.

Rosneft is highly efficient in its exploration and production operations and maintains traditionally low finding and development costs. Rosneft's average F&D costs over the last five years stood at USD 4.56 per barrel, while the RRR of SEC1P reserves in 2014–2018 reached 151%.

Low unit production costs is yet another indicator of Rosneft's operational efficiency. In the reporting period, we maintained undisputed leadership in production costs in Russia through the use of most suitable technologies and stringent cost controls. Rosneft's current operating costs per barrel are significantly lower than those of international majors, and 15–25% lower than the lifting costs of Russian peers. This gap could be bigger if we factored in temporary decrease or slowdown of growth in the costs of Russian competitors in 2018–2019 due to the shutdown of low-margin wells and limited production

at mature fields in Russia, and increased production at greenfields with tax breaks, while the production is limited by OPEC+ decisions.

Over many years, Rosneft has demonstrated a positive free cash flow, which makes us stand out among most competitors, whose performance tends to be highly volatile and sometimes negative as a result of asset acquisition or at the start of investment projects. In 2018–2019, Rosneft was in the middle of the investment cycle and bore considerable capital expenditures for construction and launch of new projects, and still demonstrated unit free cash flow of USD 6–8 per boe.

Climate Agenda and Carbon Management

Before the UN Climate Action Summit that was held during the 74th session of the UN General Assembly in September 2019, Russia's Prime Minister signed Government Resolution No. 1228 On the Adoption of the Paris Agreement dated 21 September 2019, de facto ratifying it.

Russia's Intended Nationally-Determined Contribution (INDC) suggests a longterm target of limiting anthropogenic greenhouse gases in the country to 70– 75% of the 1990 levels by 2030, subject to the maximum possible account of absorbing capacity of forests.

In December 2019, the Russian Government's Resolution No. 3183-r introduced a "first-stage" national action plan of adapting to climate change until 2022. The plan states that based on years of observation by the Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring, the average surface air temperature in Russia has been growing 0.47°C every ten years since the mid-1970s, which is 2.5 times higher than the global average of 0.18°C per ten years. A significant part of the Russian territory is subject to (observed and predictable) climate changes. The

negative consequences of the expected climate changes in Russia include more frequent, intense and lasting droughts in some regions; extreme precipitation and floods in others; an increased risk of forest fires; melting of permafrost in the northern regions causing damage to buildings and communication lines; disruption of the ecological balance (including some species replacing others); and increased energy consumption for air conditioning in the warm season. Potential benefits include reduced energy consumption during the heating season; more favourable ice conditions and hence easier Arctic cargo transportation; better access to Russian continental shelf in the Arctic Ocean; and increased productivity of boreal forests.

With climate change climbing higher on the global agenda, environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria are becoming a key factor in determining a company's investment appeal. Investors have come to rely on ESG ratings from international agencies when making allocation decisions, and companies' climate change initiatives are starting to represent a major competitive advantage.

Rosneft fully recognises the importance of the climate agenda and makes sure to assess the systemic, environmental, infrastructural and economic risks associated with climate change. Most human activities involving the burning or oxidation of carbon/hydrocarbon produce greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing GHG emissions and climate change associated with them involves burning less of certain fuels. Over the last decades, Rosneft has structured its GHG initiatives around reducing associated petroleum gas (APG) flaring, improving energy efficiency, and decreasing hydrocarbon losses in the key production processes. This is an area of ongoing focus for the Company. In 2006, we launched and have since been expanding our Gas Investment Programme, which is aimed at increasing the level of APG utilisation. During 2006–2012, Rosneft combined forces with the World Bank and a number of European state funds to carry out three joint implementation projects under the Kyoto Protocol. The projects aimed to reduce APG flaring and resulted in a 2 mmt decrease in annual CO2 emissions. Rosneft's Energy Efficiency Programme was approved in 2009 and is regularly updated with direct input from the Board of Directors.

Market Overview and Competitive Environment

¹ CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) is the most reputable non-profit organisation that assesses companies' environmental, strategic, governance and risk management effort as regards battling climate change. Climate ratings assigned by CDP following the disclosure assessment are published by the leading analytical agencies along with financial data and used by investors to screen investments. CDP works with 525 institutional investors managing USD 96 trln worth of assets. In 2019, over 8.4 thousand companies, including 62 from Russia, with more than 50% of the global market capitalisation disclosed environmental data through CDP.

In 2013, Rosneft started a systemic assessment and monitoring of its GHG emissions. In 2017, we launched a programme to regularly monitor and optimise production losses, and to ensure sustainable use of energy by our facilities.

This ongoing initiative will enable us to achieve lower GHG intensity compared to peers. For any oil and gas company, exploration and production operations are the key source of emissions. Traditionally, these operations account for 40–70% in the carbon footprint of the vertically integrated oil and gas producers.

On 20 December 2018, the Board of Directors approved the Company's ESG initiatives and announced its commitment to the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. In June 2019, we joined the Guiding Principles on Reducing Methane Emissions across the Natural Gas Value Chain.

In August 2019, we set up a Carbon Management Subcommittee under the Health, Safety, and Environment Committee. Its aim is to coordinate our work towards strategic goals of reducing GHG emissions. At its meeting in December 2019, the Board of Directors reviewed the approaches and a phased

action plan to develop carbon management (for details see the Health, Safety, and Environment section).

As a result of our efforts over the year, we became one of the leading global oil and gas companies in the CDP's carbon disclosure rating rating1 . Following an independent review, Rosneft received a "B", which is the best grade among Russian oil and gas producers, two notches higher than the average of European peers.

Overview of Key Taxation Changes in the Russian Federation with the Largest Impact on the Company's Financial and Business Operations

Tax policy in the oil industry: tax manoeuvre completion and AIT introduction

Completion of the tax manoeuvre in the oil industry

On 1 January 2019, the Russian Tax Code and Russian Law on the Customs Tariff were amended to effect a phased reduction in export duties on oil, gas condensate and petroleum products until they are reduced to zero in 2024, with an equivalent increase in MET for oil and gas condensate.

Additionally, the tax manoeuvre ended with the adoption of the so-called reverse excise tax on petroleum feedstock, a scheme providing for an excise tax to be levied when crude oil is sent to a refinery with increased deductions received. The right to receive the

Formula of reverse excise tax on petroleum feedstock

Excise tax due	Tax deduction amount	Amount to be reimbursed by the gov ernment (reverse excise tax)
EPF × VPF	EPF × VPF × 2 + СDAMP	EPF × VPF × 2 + СDAMP

ernment (reverse excise tax)

EPF is the excise tax rate depending on the actual past-month macroeconomic performance, the portfolio of products made at the refinery and refinery location;

VPF is the volume of petroleum feedstock sent for refining;

CDAMP is a damping component determined depending on the volume of motor gasoline and class 5 diesel fuel sold

domestically and the difference between the domestic and international prices for these petroleum products (can be either positive or negative). The CDAMP calculation formula effective since 1 January 2019, was adjusted on 1 July 2019.

reverse excise tax and to have relevant amounts reimbursed by the government is granted to the owners of petroleum feedstock sent for refining (including under tolling arrangements) in Russia.

Introduction of reverse excise tax on petroleum feedstock

The excise tax rate per tonne of petroleum feedstock to be refined depends on the actual past-month macroeconomic performance (Urals price and USD rate) and the refinery's product portfolio. An increased rate applies to refineries located in certain regions. For example, the highest multipliers are used in the excise tax calculation

formulas for the Krasnoyarsk Territory (1.5) and Irkutsk Region (1.4).

The reverse excise tax also contains the so-called damping component (damper), which increases (in case of a positive damper) or decreases the final amount of excise tax reimbursed by the government, depending on the volume of motor gasoline and diesel fuel produced and supplied by the taxpayer to the domestic market, as well as the difference between the export alternative and notional domestic prices. Simultaneously, the MET calculation formula for oil was changed to include CMGDF, an additional summand increasing the rate in case of a positive damper.

Market Overview and Competitive Environment

Tax on additional income from production of hydrocarbons

With effect from 1 January 2019, a limited number of oil production projects in Russia (see below for applicability criteria) are subject to a tax on additional income from hydrocarbon extraction (AIT).

AIT applicability

Group	Geographic location of subsoil areas	Depletion level as at 1 January 2017	Notes
1	Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Irkutsk Region, Nenets Autonomous Area, Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Area, north of the 65th parallel north, Krasnoyarsk Territory, Caspian Sea	Below 5%	Right of one-time exemption from AIT payment
2	No applicable limitations	No applicable limitations	Subsoil areas include reserves of the fields specified in Note 8 to the EAEU Commodity Nomenclature of Foreign Economic Activity as at 1 January 2018.
			Voluntary transition to AIT
3	Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area – Yugra, Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Area, Komi Republic, Tyumen Region	20%–80% (10%–80% if the depletion level as at 1 January 2011 is below 1%)	The subsoil areas are listed in the law
4	Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area – Yugra, Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Area, Komi Republic, Tyumen Region	Below 5%	The subsoil areas are listed in the law

For the purpose of AIT tax base calculation, the estimated revenue is determined based on the market prices for hydrocarbons, the capital expenditures are recognised when paid, and losses (including historical losses incurred in the development of subsoil areas of groups 1, 2 and 4) are carried forward with an annual indexation of 16.3%.

Given the specifics of tax base calculation, AIT is actually paid after the start of commercial production in the subsoil area and reimbursement of losses incurred.

Transition to AIT does not exempt from MET, though payable at a much lower rate than usual, and export customs

duties. Besides, subsoil areas belonging to groups 1 and 2 are expected to be exempt from oil export duties at the initial development stage (seven years from the beginning of commercial production).

VAT and Corporate Property Tax

On 1 January 2019, the generally applicable VAT rate increased from 18% to 20%, and movable property ceased to be subject to corporate property tax.

Further changes in tax legislation

A number of laws adopted in 2019 provide for further changes in the oil industry's fiscal regime. Some of the new tax measures with the greatest impact on the Company include:

▪ adjustment of MET on oil due to the changing damper mechanism to compensate for additional budget expenses arising out of the changing damper mechanism, which is used as part of the reverse excise tax on petroleum feedstock, from 1 January 2020, the CMGDF coefficient used to increase MET rate for oil will be supplemented with a new

increment in the amount commensurate with the new damper (the new damper calculation formula has been in use since 1 July 2019 and is generally meant to increase excise deductions compared to the previously used formula);

▪ changes in middle distillate excise taxation tillates category used for excise

From 1 April 2020, the middle discalculation and payment purposes will be significantly expanded to include nearly all heavy petroleum

products, with certain exceptions listed in Article 181 of the Russian Tax Code.

From the said date, a new middle distillate excise rate formula will apply. The formula is linked to the excise rate for diesel fuel and prices for diesel fuel. An increased tax deduction (with coefficient 2) will be introduced for middle distillates used as fuel for electricity and/or heat generation, and the tax deduction will increase for the sale of middle distillates as a bunker fuel taken outside of the Russian Federation as supplies.

² For fuel sold by an organisation registered as an entity engaged in petroleum feedstock refining, and produced at the refining facilities located in the Khabarovsk Territory; in other cases of sale (receipt) of dark marine fuel, the excise is equal to zero.

Excise on Petroleum Products

With effect from 1 January 2019, excise duties on petroleum products increased as planned (excise duties grew by 50% for Euro5 motor gasoline and diesel fuel, and by 39% for middle distillates, compared to the rates applied from

June 2018) and a reverse excise tax was introduced for dark marine fuel with an increased tax deduction (with rate 2) allowed when it is used as fuel for marine vessels and installations (structures).

The AIT rate is 50% of the tax base determined individually for each subsoil area using the following formula:

Health, Safety and Environment

Strategic Intent

Rosneft understands its responsibility for the Health, Safety and wellbeing of our employees, contractors, communities and stakeholders and the protection of the environment around which the Company operates. This responsibility encompasses the activities conducted by over 300 thousand company employees and about 200 thousand contractor employees.

We assess, prioritize and eliminate HSE risks in our workplace and strive for the highest standards of care for our workforce and contractors while minimizing the environmental footprint from Company operations. We also continue to remediate and eliminate historical environmental impacts in a systematic way.

In the area of carbon management and energy transition, we analyze risks to the company and identify opportunities for our portfolio, including conducting scenario analyses and stress testing to inform further management actions.

HSE Performance Goals

Rosneft-2022 strategy is aimed at continuous improvement of HSE performance equivalent to top quartile amongst our industry peers, and including targets of a 5% reduction of Greenhouse gas emissions on a per unit basis and 8 million tonnes of avoided CO2 equivalent emissions by 2022.

Responsible HSE Governance

In December 2018, the Rosneft Board of Directors approved the strategic guidelines for the company linked to implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The Company's mission, values, objectives, and strategic guidelines are therefore aligned with these 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

More specifically, the Board identified five SDGs of strategic priority for Rosneft's core businesses, including SDG 3 on Good Health and Well-Being; SDG 7 on Affordable and Clean Energy; SDG 8 on Decent Work and Economic Growth; SDG 13 on Climate Action and SDG 17 on Partnerships for the Goals.

Since the announcement of these commitments, governance has been strengthened across a number of key HSE risk areas through more robust management processes and procedures, increased capability and improved monitoring of HSE performance across the company.

From Commitment to Action

The Strategic Planning Committee of the Board of Directors reviews HSE performance, updates of the corporate HSE strategy implementation and progress against the Company's strategic goals on a quarterly basis. These goals form part of the performance KPIs of the Executive Team.

The Company's HSE Committee is an advisory body to the CEO and the Management Board and is led by senior Executives and includes senior management representatives from

across the company. In 2019, the Committee met six times to review progress on a number of HSE programs including contractor management, aviation safety, integrity management and environmental performance.

In 2019, a Carbon Management Sub-Committee was established and is also led by a Senior Executive to oversee the development of the carbon management agenda, as well as monitor delivery of annual carbon reduction and energy efficiency plans.

Operational Risk Assessments

Building on the work done in 2018, and as part of a formal company procedure, a number of systematic improvements in risk management have been implemented to assess and strengthen operational safety barriers. These actions are expected to both contribute to the prevention of potential accidents in key risk areas as well as reduce the severity of their consequences across the Company. In 2019, this process was implemented across 72 Rosneft Group Subsidiaries.

Process Safety and Integrity Management

The implementation of targeted well control management programs has resulted in preventing well blowouts or uncontrolled releases from exploration and development drilling for over two years (11 million meters drilled). There were also no process safety incidents involving over 61,000 high-pressure operating vessels. Rosneft has also introduced a new company procedure on energy isolation for safely conducting

repairs or maintaining equipment.

Driving safety and road transport

Due to the scale of Rosneft's operations, our employees & contractors drive over 2 billion kilometers annually. A Vehicle Safety Management System is in place and sets requirements for both vehicles and drivers to reduce the risks to employees, contractors and third parties. As a result, over 50 thousand drivers were trained in defensive driving, and over 52 thousand vehicles were equipped with in-vehicle monitoring systems. In addition, we work with the regional authorities near to the Company's operations and the State Road Traffic Safety Inspection Department in Russia to reduce

transport accidents in these regions.

of our contractors

In 2019, the Company introduced new contractor management requirements to improve conformance with Rosneft's safe work practices. These requirements included HSE standards and procedures for contractor selection, mandatory risk assessment processes, performance monitoring and contractor personnel capability and training. In 2019, over 10 contractor safety leadership conferences were held across Russia to share best practices, lessons learned and to develop safety leadership competencies.

Improved Incident Investigation System

The Company has initiated a program to improve its incident investigation process and investigation capability to address root causes and sustainable corrective actions. Over 1.1 thousand employees have been trained on these investigative techniques.

HSE Training (number of employees) 83,069 5,699 RUB 55 bln has been spent on occupational health and safety

The overall LTIF trend shows a decrease in the percentage of severe injuries.

Our highest priority is the safety of our employees, contractors, operations and the communities in which we operate. We focus on creating a culture where employees are strongly encouraged to report any hazards or incidents.

The Company's Safety Leadership objective is to embed the principles of the revised corporate HSE Policy and HSE Leadership standard launched in 2018. These principles focus on improving direct communication between management and employees to create a safer working environment. In 2019, over 83 thousand employees

were trained on the Golden Safety Rules to manage the performance of high-risk activities across the organization.

The Company continues to invest significant resources in the development of its safety management activities, training of its personnel and improvement of operational safety barriers, with about 55 billion rubles spent on these activities in 2019.

Strategy of the Company Operating Results

Rosneft has continued to strengthen its carbon-management processes as the Company seeks opportunities to reduce its operational carbon footprint.

The Carbon Management Sub-Committee leads the development of annual and longer-term carbonmanagement plans and tracks progress of existing programs, in particular, the Gas Investment Program and Energy Saving Program. Rosneft's energy efficiency performance improved by 14% in the last two years resulting in 3.1 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent avoided emissions over this period.

As part of its commitment to work across industry groups, Rosneft joined the Methane Guiding Principles industry initiative with one of its senior Executives on its Steering Team.

The Company has developed a methane management plan in alignment with its peers and in 2019, Rosneft reduced its known fugitive emissions by 73% compared to 2018, benefitting from its major operational improvements.

The Company aims at having the lowest possible footprint across its operations and has implemented organizational and technical improvements to drive its environmental agenda.

Water Stewardship

One of Rosneft's strategic priorities is the sustainable use of water resources involving infrastructure upgrade projects and application of the best available technologies.

Legacy Contamination and treatment of oil contaminated waste

In 2019, legacy oil-contaminated land was reduced by 16% year-on-year with a 6% improvement in the efficiency of treatment of oil-contaminated waste.

Biodiversity Conservation

The Company has also invested over 870 million rubles over the past five years for conserving biodiversity across Russia. In addition, Rosneft signed an Agreement in 2019 to cooperate with the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources on a national Ecology project. This project focuses on biodiversity conservation, primarily in the Arctic. The planned budget for this work is approximately 250 million rubles.

There is also focus on environmental activities within Rosneft's international operations, such as Brazil, where waste management practices, water conservation efforts and reforestation activities have all been improved.

Non-GHG Air Emissions

In 2019, the Company recorded a 3% reduction in non-GHG air emissions into the atmosphere.

Increasing the efficiency of oil spill management

The Company's oil spill response system reduces potential oil spill impacts from incidents once they occur and we work closely with responsible government agencies for transparent reporting and immediate response to incidents.

Rosneft's in-field pipelines span over 120 thousand km and, in 2019, the Company completed implementation of the 2015- 2019 Pipeline Reliability Improvement Program to increase pipeline reliability. This program led to a decrease in the pipeline failure rate by 30% compared to 2013 and a further reduction in oil spill volumes from pipeline failures in 2019.

Worldskills movement

Rosneft has joined Worldskills, a global movement promoting vocational skills.

During the reporting year, we provided methodological support for the fourth Worldskills corporate championship held in September, at the Novokuibyshevsk Refinery (Laboratory Chemical Analysis and Occupational Safety categories).

The participants were 40 technicians and 44 experts in chemical analysis from 44 Group Subsidiaries, along with 11 specialists and 11 senior experts in occupational safety from 11 Group Subsidiaries.

The Rosneft team represented by 21 contestants and 17 experts from 16 Group Subsidiaries and the Head Office competed in eight categories and won prizes in six of them.

As a global company, Rosneft is fostering partnerships with foreign oil and gas producers and the world's best educational institutions to provide comprehensive training to its employees and enable them to perform well in any international project.

In 2019, Rosneft carried on with educational projects run jointly with international educational providers. We also helped our partner universities to arrange for Master's programmes for 86 professionals from other countries.

Our foreign partners, such as BP, ExxonMobil, Equinor, ONGC Videsh Ltd., Nayara Energy, China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) and Beijing Gas Group Company Limited, took part in the International Day held on 10 April 2019 as part of Rosneft's HR Conference in Moscow.

• created a joint working group in this area;
• developed and approved a road map of initiatives for 2019-2020.

In December 2019, BP and Rosneft staged events to exchange experience in personnel assessment and HR e-workflow management.

Professional Standards

In 2019, the Company continued to implement professional standards.

In pursuance of the Directive of the Russian Government No. 5119p-P13 dated 14 July 2016, Rosneft's Board of Directors held two meetings in the reporting year to discuss the rollout of professional standards across Rosneft and the Group Subsidiaries. According to the latest monitoring, more than a fourth of almost 1,300

approved professional standards can be implemented in the Company, with 54 of them classified as mandatory qualification requirements (depending on the subsidiary's type of operations). The qualification standards apply to over 44 thousand employees, of whom over 95% have an educational background meeting the requirements.

In 2015, Rosneft and other oil and gas producers joined the National Council for Professional Qualifications in the Oil and Gas Industry. Pursuant to the Council's action plan, the Nefteyugansk Corporate Institute, Rosneft's Professional Expertise Centre, drafted four industry standards and submitted them for approval by the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection. In 2019, the Ministry approved three industry standards developed earlier by Rosneft.

Personnel Skill Assessment

Our comprehensive personnel assessment framework establishes uniform knowledge and skill requirements for employees across all business segments, including the Head Office and Group Subsidiaries.

We assess employees when planning competencу training, creating a talent pool and expert communities, recruiting or changing job descriptions. The assessments helps check managerial, corporate, professional and technical skills across all personnel categories: managers, specialists and blue-collar employees.

Its aim is to identify knowledge gaps, determine priority development areas, optimise training costs, and improve qualifications and performance.

In 2019, we launched a corporate training and development portal to collect personnel assessment results and integrate them into the shared HR database of Rosneft Group Subsidiaries, Head Office, and training resources.

The corporate and managerial skills assessment relies on the dedicated model approved by the Chief Executive Officer. The model takes into account the Company's culture, values and the description of managerial competencies. In 2019, the Company applied the model to evaluate 23.65 thousand employees.

The assessment of professional skills uses materials drafted in the course of the target innovative project (TIP) to introduce a skills-based approach to personnel development across all business segments.

The TIP participants include Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas (oil refining and procurement projects) and Tomsk Polytechnic University (oil and gas production and offshore projects) along with leading Russian and foreign consulting firms.

As part of the initiative, we developed and introduced professional competencies along with employee assessment and development tools in the following areas: offshore projects, oil refining, oil and gas production, marketing and distribution, logistics and transport, capital construction, economics and finance, procurement, energy efficiency, gas, design and survey at research institutes, oil refining, gas processing, petrochemicals and energy at corporate research and design institutes. In 2019, Rosneft started implementing relevant projects across some functions (internal audit, HR management and social programmes) and in the Oil Refining, Gas Processing and Petrochemicals business.

In 2019, we assessed over 20.83 thousand people based on the TIP materials as well as those used to evaluate the professional competencies of the key blue-collar staff in Oil Refining and Petrochemicals, Exploration and Production, and In-House Services.

Pre-University Training

We organise Rosneft classes at top-ranking schools, colleges, and gymnasiums in regions where we operate. The initiative is supported by the Group Subsidiaries that have a strong need for qualified labour to implement contemplated growth plans and capacity ramp-ups.

Rosneft classes offer school students a high-quality secondary education with a strong focus on technology and natural sciences to enable them to continue engineering studies at universities. After graduation, young talents are employed at the Company.

The project has a significant positive impact on the Company's reputation, promoting the image of Rosneft as a socially responsible partner of the national education system. Rosneft classes help digitalise education at partner schools, upgrade facilities and equipment, boost the efficiency of training and career guidance activities, and enhance qualifications required to teach the core subjects.

In 2019, the Company supported 122 classes in partnership with 64 secondary schools in 57 towns and settlements located in

27 Russian regions. The classes saw some 2,839 attendees.

We keep expanding the project geography and launching new classes each year. In 2019, Rosneft classes opened in Moscow and in Oktyabrsky (Republic of Bashkortostan). The Moscow class aims to supply talent for the projects related to the Arctic and offshore exploration and development, while the one in Oktyabrsky focuses on training personnel for producing facilities in Bashkortostan.

Youth Policy

Rosneft's youth policy aims to ensure

a steady influx of young, qualified

specialists from among the top graduates of educational institutions, and their fast and effective onboarding at the Company's facilities. To this end, Rosneft is working hard to build an external talent pool comprised of students of local educational institutions. The youth training system targets three groups: attendees of Rosneft engineering classes (grade 10 and 11), students of industry-specific universities, and young Company specialists. In accordance with its Youth Policy, Rosneft consistently implements a school-toworkplace approach to training in all domains.

In 2019, the Policy focused on preuniversity training (Rosneft classes) and work with young talents, in line with the Rosneft–2022 Strategy.

Sustainable Development

Corporate Governance

First and foremost, the project seeks to identify, support and provide education to the gifted youth. The attendees of Rosneft classes take an active part in various academic contests. In the school year 2018–2019, 939 student became winners and runners-up in a widerange of olympiads, with 480 winning the top awards and other prizes at various stages of the National Olympiad of Schoolchildren.

To reach out to more young talents in the country's regions, we continued to organise Rosneft classes in cooperation with the Sirius Educational Centre in Sochi. The programme runs under the cooperation agreement between Rosneft and the Talent and Success Educational Foundation. The selection stage and online competition brought together 604 school students, with 108 students of Rosneft classes from 35 Russian towns and settlements taking part in the face-to-face round at the Sirius Educational Centre. The programme aimed to provide career

guidance and training as part of projects run jointly by young scientists and engineers from Rosneft's corporate research and design institutes.

To improve the efficiency of preuniversity education provided to students of Rosneft classes, we make consistent efforts to develop the qualifications of school principals and teachers of core subjects.

In 2019, the Company trained heads of partner secondary educational organisations on how to manage systemic changes in specialised schools, and developed roadmaps to introduce early career guidance. The workshop was attended by 54 school principals from 46 towns located in 22 Russian regions.

To integrate modern digital technology in the educational process, Rosneft and Lomonosov Moscow State University launched a project providing distance learning opportunities for teachers. The project leveraged the digital education platform of the University Gymnasium to stage four online development courses for teachers of chemistry, mathematics, physics and the Russian language. All in all, the courses saw 96 participants from 42 schools located in 41 Russian towns (21 regions).

To provide better career guidance to Rosneft-class students, the HR Department's personnel development function updated and reissued the brochure titled "I want to work in the oil industry". The document lists the industry's most valued skills.

The project proved to be a success as evidenced by the number of Rosneft-class graduates who received relevant higher education and signed employment contracts with the Company. In 2019, 107 graduates started work at 32 Group Subsidiaries, with a total of 786 employed in 60 Group Subsidiaries.

Work with Young Talent

In 2019, a total of 4,001 young specialists worked in 105 Group Subsidiaries, with 1,360 of them hired during the year.

The programmes for young specialists are based on the Company's Regulations on Organising Work with Young Specialists, which covers the following areas:

• onboarding;
• training and development;
• identifying and development of potential leaders;
• progress assessment;
• financial support and social protection of young specialists.

To fast-track the onboarding of the young talent, we have put in place dedicated courses, set up 71 young specialist councils and introduced mentorship programmes across the Group Subsidiaries. As part of the Three Steps programme, Rosneft offers the young talent training and professional growth opportunities aligned with their individual development plans.

In the reporting year, we took the following steps to develop the professional, corporate and managerial competencies of young specialists: ▪ organised 3,964 man-courses as part of professional and managerial skills development programmes; ▪ arranged for 2,607 young specialists to take part in regional and cluster R&D conferences. The Inter-Regional Research and Development Conference was attended by 359 young specialists, with 105 of them winning prizes. The conference also saw 102 projects recommended for implementation.

-

In an effort to build up a strategic talent pool, we staged assessment business

games for prospective young leaders in their third year of employment. The games took place from June to September 2019 and brought together 374 employees from 74 Group Subsidiaries. Based on the results, we selected 189 participants from 58 Group Subsidiaries who had demonstrated strong corporate and managerial skills, and recommended including them in the strategic pipeline of young talent. As game winners, these employees will receive further training under the Three Steps programme. In 2019, we trained 114 young specialists who had topped in the 2018 assessment games.

In December 2019, we held an annual conference for chairs of young professionals' councils to help boost the efficiency of their work. The event saw some 58 participants.

The initiative enables the Company to attract and retain highly qualified and ensure long-term engagement of valuable professionals by providing housing through the following arrangements:

• mortgage lending;
• provision of corporate housing.

The living conditions of 1,112 families were improved through mortgages provided by Rosneft in 2019.

In addition, relocated professionals are provided with corporate housing, with the total number of apartments available in the Company's regions of operation exceeding 1.5 thousand.

With its corporate housing programme, Rosneft also contributes to the implementation of the national Housing and Mortgage programmes.

Working Conditions and Recreation

In the reporting year, Rosneft continued implementing an integrated programme to create favourable working conditions for its employees. The programme's key focus is the development and fit-up of 349 shift camps (including 119 shift and trailer camps, and 230 trailer camps for the drilling crews of RN-Bureniye),

which in 2019 accommodated close to 52 thousand employees of the Company and its contractors.

The maintenance costs for the social facilities at production sites totalled RUB 8.7 bln in 2019.

Capital investment in the construction, reconstruction, development and fit-up of shift camps, field support bases, sites and workshops amounted to RUB 8.1 bln in 2019.

As part of the Rosneft–2022 Strategy approved by the Board of Directors, the Company continued to run a number of designated programmes aiming to:

• supply industrial healthcare facilities with modern training equipment for the development of emergency medical care skills;
• establish a corporate telemedicine network that will bring together 90 healthcare facilities from remote production sites of 18 Group Subsidiaries and large regional consultation centres to improve the availability and quality of medical care in the hard-to-reach regions of the Company's operation;
• perform preventive medical examination of the Company's employees focusing on early detection of cardiovascular and oncological diseases (in 2019, 31 thousand employees of Rosneft underwent such examination).

Since 2017, the Company has been successfully implementing its corporate programme for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases aimed at boosting professional longevity and reducing the risks of lost-time injuries, permanent disability and early death. In 2019, more than 110 thousand

employees from 140 Group Subsidiaries participated in the programme.

The Company keeps running its Live Longer! programme, which promotes healthy living by offering medical screening to expose disease risk factors, supporting sports initiatives and helping the Company's employees develop healthy lifestyle habits.

Resort treatment and rehabilitation opportunities aimed at preserving employees' health, extending their careers and preventing diseases are an integral part of the social security net offered to the Company's employees, their families and retirees (veterans of labour).

In 2019, Rosneft offered resort treatment services to over 78 thousand employees, members of their families and retirees both in the Company's own health resorts and wellness centres and third party organisations.

The Company continued to implement a wellness and recreation programme for its employees in the Republic of Cuba. Over the past year, more than 2.5 thousand people underwent medical treatment in Cuba. Since the start of

cooperation in December 2013, more than 13 thousand employees and their family members have visited the resorts in Cuba.

In the reporting year, personal insurance programmes (voluntary health and accident insurance) covered more than 330 thousand employees of the Company.

Accessibility of medical assistance for employees at their place of residence or workplace, inclusion of hightech multidisciplinary clinics into the insurance programmes, and high quality of medical care provided to employees remain the Company's key priorities in the realm of voluntary health insurance.

Group Subsidiaries continued to execute voluntary insurance agreements which cover employee accidents both during and outside working hours and provide an additional source of support for employees or their families in case of a materialised insured event.

Corporate healthcare and personal insurance programmes help support and build on the Healthcare national project.

Energy Saving Programme

Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving Policy

In accordance with its Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving Policy and the Energy Management System: Requirements and Use Guidance Standard, the Company took the following steps in 2019:

• amended the list of Group Subsidiaries covered by the 2020–2024 Energy Efficiency Programme, adding the following assets: Kharampurneftegaz, Rospan International and RN-Arkhangelsknefteprodukt. Given asset combinations and divestments and with no new energy saving initiatives planned for 2020–2024, two assets were excluded from the Programme;
• updated the standard organisational structure of energy efficiency units in oil and gas production subsidiaries

to take into account the need for regular on-site audits in this area; ▪ arranged for corporate training in energy efficiency. In 2019, 352 employees took training in the dedicated corporate training centre, with another 61 educated by an external provider with an international track record in launching and developing energy management systems at productions sites;

▪ drafted and put into effect the Regulations on Planning and Measuring the Actual Energy Saving Effect from Energy Saving Marketing and Distribution Group

Programmes at In-House Service and Subsidiaries and Marine Terminals;

• performed an internal energy efficiency assessment at 19 oil and gas production and oil refining Group Subsidiaries, with individual roadmaps drafted to address the identified gaps in 2019–2021. Another assessment is scheduled for 2020;
• had Sorovskneft, Bashneft-Polyus, Ufaorgsintez, and integrated refinery in Ufa (Ufaneftekhim, Bashneft-Novoil, and Bashneft-UNPZ) certified for compliance with ISO 50001 (Energy Management Systems). All in all, 41 Group Subsidiaries accounting for over 95% of the Company's total energy consumption in 2019 hold ISO 50001 certificates.

Strategy of the Company Operating Results

The reporting year saw the following generating facilities built or commissioned to help meet the projected Group energy needs:

In-house power plants:

• an 18 MW gas turbine power plant commissioned at Kondaneft's Zapadno-Erginskoye field;
• main construction and installation operations completed and precommissioning started at:
• a 105 MW gas turbine power plant at the Vostochno-Urengoysky licence area of Rospan International;
• a 50 MW gas turbine power plant at the Srednebotuobinskoye field of Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha;
• a 153 MW gas turbine and thermal power plant at the Tuapse Refinery (Phase 2).

220 kV grid facilities:

• three 220 kV substations and a 220 kV power transmission line built and commissioned at RN-Uvatneftegaz;
• a 320 km 220 kV overhead line; – a 220/110/10 kV 2×63 MVA Pikhtovaya substation;
• a 220/110/10 kV 2×125 MVA Lyantinskaya substation;
• a 220/110/35 kV 2×63 MVA Protozanovskaya substation.

The project helped eliminate the capacity shortage, reduce energy costs through no further use of diesel generators, improve the reliability of energy supply to the existing oil and gas production facilities of RN-Uvatneftegaz and Slavneft-Megionneftegaz, and ensure the required capacity margin to put on stream new oil and gas fields.

110 kV grid facilities:

• commissioned:
• a 14 km 110 kV Protozanovskaya Taltsiyskaya overhead line at RN-Uvatneftegaz;
• a 60 km 110 kV Donetsko– Syrtovskaya – Rybkinskaya overhead line at Orenburgneft.

In 2019, the Company commissioned 220 kV 502 MVA transformer capacities and a 394 km 220/110 kV overhead line, adding 18 MW of generating capacities.

Rosneft also completed the construction and started pre-commissioning of 10 kV main substations (distribution station No. 55 and central distribution station No. 2) with a design load of 22.6 MW to supply energy to Phase 2 and extended Phase 2 production facilities of the Zvezda Shipyard.

On top of that, the Company reconstructed a 0.8 km CHP – Okha heat main, a socially important facility for the Sakhalin Region.

Power Generation Development Localisation and Development of Industrial Clusters

Import Substitution and Equipment Localisation for Rosneft's Needs

In 2015, Rosneft launched an Import Substitution and Equipment Localisation Programme (the Programme).

Aligned with strategic goals and objectives set forth in the Rosneft–2022 Strategy and the Company's Long-Term Development Programme,

the Programme aims to:

• facilitate the development of Rosneft as a high-tech oil and gas company;
• foster technological leadership in its core competencies, such as oil and gas production, oil refining and gas processing;
• secure the Company's technologically sustainable position in the hydrocarbons market by increasing the share of Russian-made products and implementing projects to localise the manufacturing of foreign oil and gas equipment in Russia in cooperation with leading global producers;
• facilitate the development of infrastructure supporting exploration and production and refining, commerce and logistics projects as part of localisation efforts.

To this end, Rosneft keeps investing in proprietary solutions and products with a view to sustaining its technological self-sufficiency.

Given a bigger share of horizontal wells and rising geological and engineering complexities, there is a growing need for advanced well logging techniques along with other prospecting, exploration and development technologies of critical importance. Rosneft focuses on developing domestic capabilities in advanced well logging. Currently, the Company partners with Rosatom to develop instruments for measuring mineral composition of formations and

logging while drilling horizontal wells. This will help provide for high-quality insights into complex reservoirs and ensure independence from expensive foreign services.

Also, Rosneft and Rostec developed a technology to produce synthetic proppants. The Company's R&D efforts were successful resulting in batches of these proppants for pilot testing at Rosneft's oil production sites. The parties are considering mass production of synthetic proppants at Rostec industrial sites.

Russian-made catalysts are key to sustaining the technological selfsufficiency of the Company's refining segment reducing its reliance on foreign technologies. In 2019, RN-Kat specialising in catalyst production and the Ufa Refinery conducted industrial tests on the first batch of hydrotreating catalysts suitable for Euro5 compliant diesel fuel. This is a unique hydrotreating agent capable of fully replacing its foreign peers for the Russian refining industry. The tests proved that Rosneft's proprietary catalyst was fit for the production of diesel fuel compliant with all the latest technical requirements.

In 2019, the Novokuibyshevsk Catalysers Plant launched Russia's first-ever advanced pilot testing facility for hydrotreating catalysts. The new facility will help test technologies to manufacture catalysts for oil refining and petrochemical processes with a view to ramping up large-scale production. Until now, Russia has been lacking such technological capabilities. The cutting-edge platform will fast-track the implementation and commercialisation of Rosneft's R&D initiatives focusing on catalysis and catalysts for the said processes.

The development of proprietary research-intensive specialist

software is another strategic focus area for the Company. As of now, Rosneft's production assets operate five software suites which model field geology (RN-Geosim, RN-KIM), simulate hydraulic fracturing operations (RN-GRID), manage field development (RN-KIN) and model drilling operations of any complexity (RN-Sigma).

In 2019, RN-Geosim added software modules to build simple geological models while RN-KIM designed modules for hydrodynamic modelling at large fields.

Over the year, RN-Yuganskneftegaz leveraged RN-GRID models to perform another multi-stage hydraulic fracturing operation on a horizontal well in an ultralow-permeability reservoir at the Bazhenov suite. With 610 tonnes of proppant injected, the Company obtained oil flow of ca. 6.5 t per day per stage, which is unprecedented in the Russian oil and gas industry. By now, RN-GRID has designed more than 8 thousand full-scale hydraulic fracturing operations, with R&D efforts ongoing to develop new functionalities in line with the newest challenges.

RN-KIN software suite covers 100% of operational tasks related to field development. The Group Subsidiaries are now testing the industrial version of RN-Sigma suite (geomechanical modelling of borehole stability while drilling). This software enables the Company's engineers to capitalise on wider applications of geomechanical calculations for borehole stability and reduce risks while drilling directional and horizontal wells.

Improved Energy Supply Reliability

Every year, the Company takes a number of steps to ensure uninterrupted energy supply of the existing and prospective production assets. In 2019, as part of its efforts to improve the supply efficiency and reliability, the Company conducted eight technical audits to check the quality of power facility management and drafted a remedial action plan to

eliminate the gaps. The reporting year saw 908 remedial actions completed, with deadlines for another 916 not yet expired. This helped achieve a 5% yearon-year reduction of oil production shortages caused by power failures in in-house electricity networks.

As part of technical audits, the Company also checks if its sites operate equipment in compliance with health and safety requirements.

Fostering the Industrial Cluster

To ensure its technology self-sufficiency and implement localisation projects, Rosneft formed the Industrial Assets group (the Industrial Cluster) having technological and logistics capabilities to manufacture, maintain and repair equipment (including that designated to substitute imports) for the Company's needs in a timely manner.

In 2020–2025, the Industrial Cluster will be focusing on:

• establishing R&D and manufacturing infrastructure to support reengineering, innovations, and import substitution;
• running pilot projects and tests in line with the Company's Target Innovative Projects;
• supplying capacities to support localisation projects in cooperation with foreign technology partners as well as joint ventures with Russian R&D centres and enterprises.

Industrial and Shipbuilding Cluster in the Russian Far East

Upon instruction from the Russian President, Rosneft is ramping up a shipbuilding cluster in the Far East to foster the domestic shipbuilding industry and energise the development of the country's continental shelf. Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex in Bolshoy Kamen will be the core shipyard and Russia's first-ever facility for the construction of large-capacity vessels.

Importantly, the shipyard will be manufacturing icebreakers and reinforced ice-class vessels, along with LNG-powered vessels. The shipyard boasts a unique set of competencies unparalleled among both domestic and leading global peers.

To cater to the needs of import substitution and equipment localisation, an industrial cluster for shipboard equipment and components is emerging around the shipbuilding complex.

In 2019, the first and the second phases of the shipyard construction saw a huge volume of works:

• 6.5 mcm dredged to deepen the waterways;
• over 700 th. cub m of soil dumped; ▪ over 36 th. cub m of concrete poured;
• over 16.5 th. sq m of construction sites developed;
• ca. 12 kt of steelworks assembled; ▪ 3.2 kt of sheet piles and 7 kt of piles installed.

In June 2019, the second Goliath giant crane with a lifting capacity of 1.2 kt was delivered and assembled at the dry dock, a unique hydraulic structure sized 485 x 114 x 14 m. The giant crane will help build the majority of existing and prospective vessel types with virtually unlimited tonnage and launching weight. With the construction works being ahead of schedule, the dry dock will

be commissioned in 2020, three years earlier than planned.

In 2019, Zvezda and Samsung Heavy Industries Co. Ltd. (Republic of Korea) established a joint venture to manage projects for the construction of shuttle tankers with a deadweight from 42 to 120 kt at Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex. The joint venture relies on the agreement on exchanging experience in the design and construction of shuttle tankers signed in 2018. Samsung Heavy Industries will hand over base and detailed design documentation to the Zvezda Shipyard, and give a helping hand in developing working design documentation for shuttle tankers together with Lazurit Central Design Bureau.

In 2019, Zvezda signed contracts for the construction of nine vessels, thus providing for large-capacity vessels to be made in the Primorye Territory.

Sapphire Applied Engineering and Training Centre

Steerable Thrusters

An industrial cluster for shipboard equipment and components is emerging around Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex. The cluster accommodates a workshop to manufacture steerable thrusters for ice-class vessels, including gas carriers.

VRK Sapphire Plant, a joint venture of Rosneft and General Electric, manages the project to develop and localise the production of steerable thrusters, a key component of marine electric propulsion systems.

With the first construction phase completed, VRK Sapphire Plant was approved for commissioning in 2019 and started manufacturing 7.5 MW steerable thrusters for the third and fourth reinforced ice-class support vessels which are being built for the Company at Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex.

Supplier and Contractor Relationships

Rosneft is one of the largest consumers of goods, works and services among Russian private and state-owned companies. The annual spend by the Company (Rosneft and Group Subsidiaries) on externally procured goods, works and services amounted to RUB 2.6 trln.

The Company has persistently high need for goods, works and services, which is a powerful growth driver for the Russian economy.

The Company's success is therefore largely underpinned by long-term relationships with suppliers and contractors. Long-term contracts provide an important foundation for building long-lasting relationships. In 2019, long-term contracts accounted for over 70% of the Company's production programme.

Placing long-term orders facilitates stable development of the oil and gas industry, the machine building industry, the maintenance services market, help create jobs in all industries and drive innovation.

The Company keeps implementing the category management in procurement, including by leveraging category/ procurement strategy as its key enabler.

In 2019, Rosneft developed and adopted 18 category/procurement strategies as part of its continued efforts to increase the share of its needs covered by category/procurement strategies. The business plan for 2020 provides for 48% of its needs to be covered by existing strategies.

As part of its work to implement the category management in procurement and develop a framework for long-term qualification of reliable counterparties, the Company systematically reviewed all inventories, which helped identify

key expensive and critical inventories based on the materiality, importance for business and procurement frequency.

Rosneft applied common definitions and approaches to harmonise and organise qualifications and requirements, and introduce basic criteria for all inventories as well as specific criteria and individual requirements for certain product types as the case may be.

To establish long-standing relationships with suppliers, the Company's internal regulations provide for long-term (up to 18 months) accreditation which helps considerably reduce costs incurred by potential suppliers participating in procurement procedures. Suppliers may obtain accreditation both prior to and in the course of procurement procedures.

As a vertically integrated holding company, Rosneft relies on the consolidated procurement of goods, works and services for the Group Subsidiaries with a view to enhancing its procurement efficiency, all in line with recommendations of the federal executive bodies. Rosneft's procurement is centralised at 59.4%, including 49.3% handled by the Head Office and 10.1% sourced regionally.

When choosing suppliers and contractors, the Company adheres to the principles of openness, competitiveness, reasonableness, effectiveness, and non-discrimination. These principles are set forth in the applicable Russian laws (specifically Federal Law No. 223-FZ on Procurement of Goods, Works and Services by Certain Types of Legal Entities dated 18 July 2011) and laid down in the Regulations on Procurement of Goods, Works and Services binding on both the Company and the Group Subsidiaries.

To ensure procurement transparency, increased competition and equal access for market participants, the Company manages its procurement procedures electronically via TEK-Torg's electronic trading platform. The Company conducts virtually all competitive procurement procedures electronically.

Rosneft achieves maximum transparency by publishing its procurement plans, information on procurement procedures and their outcomes, as well as on contracts awarded and performed (information on over 99% of the Company's procurement procedures is made publicly available on the Internet).

To increase procurement transparency via TEK-Torg's electronic trading platform (Rosneft's section), in 2019 the Company and the Group Subsidiaries initiated more than 102 thousand procurement procedures with a total initial (maximum) value of RUB 2.1 trln and over 203 thousand suppliers registered (cumulatively since the platform's inception).

To enhance transparency and efficiency of minor procurement (worth below RUB 500 thousand), TEK-Torg's electronic trading platform launched Corporate Internet Shop. It helps boost, control and streamline the Company's internal business processes as well as those of the Group Subsidiaries leading to shorter times, lower operating costs and lower procurement prices due to a better competitive environment. As a result, the Company managed to attract new counterparties (mostly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)). The Corporate Internet Shop has more than 14 thousand suppliers registered, including over 10 thousand SMEs. In 2019, the Company published more than 29 thousand procurement procedures with completed procurement worth over RUB 2 bln.

The Company is committed to promoting cooperation with SMEs. Rosneft consistently implements initiatives prescribed by the Russian Government to provide SMEs with a wider access to its procurement procedures. The Company met the target for the share of procurement from SMEs as stipulated by Resolution of the RF Government No. 1352 dated 11 December 2014. In 2019, the total value of contracts made between Rosneft and SMEs (including those made by the Group Subsidiaries on behalf of Rosneft), including payments due in 2019, amounted to RUB 16.3 bln, with

RUB 4.1 bln worth of contracts awarded as a result of direct procurement from SMEs.

It is worth noting that SMEs account for over 76% of potential suppliers accredited with Rosneft.

The Company continues with the Import Substitution and Equipment Localisation Programme for Rosneft's Needs for 2019–2021 with an outlook for 2028. The Regulations on Procurement of Goods, Works and Services provide for the Company's right to prioritise Russian-made goods, works and services where and as required by the applicable laws.

The Company is setting up a Shared Service Centre with a view to centralising and pipelining routine procurement operations and category management functions. Starting from 2019, regional inventory management and quality control functions have been transferred to the Shared Service Centre in line with the approved approach.

The Company engaged both experienced experts and young specialists to form a talent pool for the Centre. The Company partnered with

the Samara State Technical University, Samara's flagship in higher education, to develop a training course in Procurement Chain Management for the Oil and Gas Industry seeking to attract and teach young professionals.

As part of the Rosneft–2022 Strategy, the Company is establishing a blockchainbased framework for engagement with its suppliers. During the first half of 2019, Rosneft developed and approved target business processes, a roadmap for the implementation of a supplier engagement framework, a project schedule and an IT prototype.

The Company successfully robotised its accounting and inventory management processes. Rosneft relies on automation tools to unlock resources previously engaged in routine and algorithm-driven operations so as to:

• refocus its employees on more sophisticated tasks
• mitigate risks of errors (human factor) while managing big data
• exponentially accelerate routine operations supporting a 24/7 continuous workflow. The Company seeks to further develop robotic technologies.

Key Achievements in 2019

Exploration and Production

• The Company successfully tested the technology for using horizontal production and injection wells with multi-stage hydraulic fracturing to develop low-permeability reservoirs at a pilot area of the Prirazlomnoye field. The use of horizontal wells as injection ones (for reservoir pressure maintenance) proved to be effective:
• injectivity index of horizontal wells was, on average, three times higher than that of vertical wells;
• the fluid flow rate in the horizontal wells (for reservoir pressure maintenance) in the pilot area decreased at a slower pace as compared with the standard development technology.

Unlike the standard development scheme (one horizontal production well and two directional injection wells), the new scheme is based on one horizontal injection well instead of two directional

injection wells. This results in both cost savings and higher oil production. RN-Yuganskneftegaz continued to deploy this technology at the Priobskoye field, with over 80 wells drilled in total.

• RN-Yuganskneftegaz continued to deploy the newly developed multistage hydraulic fracturing technology at the Salymskoye field, having performed a nine-stage hydraulic fracturing operation on a horizontal well in an ultralow-permeability reservoir at the Bazhenov suite (YuS0 formation). With 610 tonnes of proppant injected, the oil flow was recorded at 6.5 t per day per stage, which is a significant result for the Bazhenov suite. In 2019, RN-Yuganskneftegaz also updated the map of development potential categories for the Bazhenov suite based on which it plans to drill over 30 horizontal wells with multi-stage hydraulic fracturing in 2020–2022.
• In 2019, we finalised our unique technology for gas production from the Berezovskaya suite. The distinctive feature of the technology is that it allows fissure logging while drilling. The logging results can be used to identify the optimal layout of hydraulic fracturing ports, contributing to more effective development of the Kharampurskoye field. A patent application has been filed.
• Rosneft partnered with the National Intellectual Development Foundation to test the integration technology for multi-scale studies of the Jurassic high-carbon formation which helped discover a new gas deposit at the Vostochno-Unlorsky licence area and estimate movable oil resources of the Severo-Demyanskaya area amounting to over 100 mmt.
• The Company developed technologies for core analysis on hard-to-recover reserves which help

Research and Innovations

• development and deployment of new technologies;
• development, production, and launch of new world-class innovative products and services;
• support of the Company's modernisation and technological advancement through high-impact improvements in key performance indicators for business processes;
• enhancement of the Company's shareholder value and competitive edge in the global market.

Target Innovative Projects

In the reporting year, Rosneft continued with the implementation of R&D results and the protection of intellectual

property rights. The R&D efforts in 2019 resulted in 61 intellectual property applications submitted by the Company.

determine relative permeabilities and displacement efficiencies in low-permeability reservoirs, relative permeabilities in poorly consolidated core samples, and residual oil saturation in gas zones (oil fringes). Once implemented, the economic effect is expected to exceed RUB 10 bln for gas and gas condensate deposits in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Area and the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area – Yugra.

Research-intensive Technology Software

• New software modules were added to RN-SMT, an integrity monitoring system for oilfield pipelines. The system aims to fully digitalise all processes related to pipeline operations, reduce operating risks and inform management action. Going forward, RN-SMT will make into a single corporate software suite capable of fully supporting pipeline operations.
• To improve the field design accuracy and select the most appropriate

hydrocarbon extraction technologies, Rosneft makes extensive use of field models created by its proprietary RN-KIM hydrodynamic simulator. This advanced software has been widely exploited by the Company for over five years and is adapted to the geological and operating conditions of the fields the Company is developing. In 2019, we released a new version that allows us to quickly (using graphics processing units or computer clusters) create models for oil and gas condensate fields that require computation-intensive analysis. As a result, about 80% of digital field modelling works were performed using RN-KIM. Going forward, the proprietary simulator will not only cover 90–95% of the Company's needs for hydrodynamic modelling, it will also provide for artificial intelligence applications in field development planning. ▪ RN-KIM hydrodynamic simulator added software modules for multicomponent filtration, optimisation algorithms for autoadaptive hydrodynamic modelling, and support for graphics

processing units (GPUs). In 2019, over 70% of hydrodynamic models in the Company were created with RN-KIM. Moreover, the system was provided to the relevant departments of the leading universities which offer training to Rosneft's employees. The proprietary simulator is expected not only to cover 90–95% of the Company's needs for hydrodynamic modelling, but also to provide for artificial intelligence applications in field development planning.

• RN-Geosim added software modules for building vertical and tilted faults for structural surfaces, visualising seismic cubes, multipoint statistics, basic reports on geological models, and parallel computations. RN-Geosim is anticipated to cover up to 80% of the Company's needs for geological modelling.
• RN-Simtep added software modules for modelling oil and gas production processes. Going forward, RN-Simtep will cover up to 80% of the Company's needs for production process modelling and eventually tap into oil refining and petrochemicals processes.

Strategy of the Company Operating Results

• The Company developed a concept for RN-PetroLog, corporate software suite for interpretation of core samples and well log data, together with a RN-PetroLog prototype. The Company intends to drastically reduce its dependence on foreign vendors by developing proprietary petrophysical software and integrating it into its digital space.
• Another important highlight was Rosneft Seismic Challenge, an open championship in seismic data analysis based on machine learning. The event attracted about 500 teams from nine countries. The task was to offer an automatic method for correlating reflecting horizons throughout the seismic cube based on image segmentation. The solutions developed by the participants will help automate manual processes in seismic exploration. The best algorithms and concepts will be prepared for pilot testing as a seismic module of the corporate software.

Arctic Shelf

▪ The Kara Summer 2019 research expedition covered the Barents, Kara, Laptev and Chukchi seas providing for the maintenance of measuring infrastructure deployed by the Company in the Arctic, and

hydrometeorological observations. The Company will rely on its results to design facilities and perform operations across its license areas on the Arctic shelf.

• Meteorological surveys were conducted in the area of the Khastyr temporary field base (the Khatanga Bay, the Laptev Sea). The data collected in the course of meteorological and actinometric observations will be used to develop provisional operating conditions for the Khatanga licence area.
• The Company developed a concept for a dome-type special-purpose facility to contain and clean up emergency oil spills on the shelf, including in deep-sea areas and in the Arctic. It is intended to gather oil leaking from damaged equipment and to pump it to surface. It excels in containing subsea oil spills virtually everywhere, within a wide range of depths and ice conditions. The project won an award from the International Contest for R&D and Innovations for the Development of the Arctic and the Continental Shelf.
• The Company developed surfaceactive agents, unprecedented in Russia, which can be used to clean up emergency oil spills at sea due to their oil dispersing capacity. These consist of low-toxic components made in Russia.

Associated Petroleum Gas Monetisation

• Rosneft developed a laboratorylevel GTL technology which allowed for mixing synthetic and mineral oil to produce commercial petroleum products compliant with the existing quality standards. The Company engaged international expertise to attest the GTL feasibility and produce recommendations for its pilot testing.
• Rosneft partnered with the National Intellectual Development Foundation to design, manufacture and deliver a pilot APG desulphurisation unit based on microporous membranes for the Garshinskaya preliminary water discharge facility at Orenburgneft, with pilot testing commenced and continuing into 2020.

Oil Refining and Petrochemicals

• Rosneft developed a laboratory-level technology to regenerate xylenol and butylated fire-resistant oil wastes intended for high-powered turbines, including at nuclear power plants. Following regeneration, fire-resistant oil can be used to wash lubrication systems of both new and repaired turbines.
• The Company successfully tried the hydrogenation technology for converting acetone into isopropanol

at its pilot testing facility and ran endurance tests on a catalyst batch used in the process.

• Rosneft developed a laboratorylevel suspension technology to produce EPDM rubbers, including the composition and specifications of a catalyst used in the process. Once implemented, the project will help optimise the existing EPDM production in terms of operating costs and product quality.
• The Company arranged for independent tests at its refineries with a view to streamlining dispersant and depressor additives for diesel fuels. It also developed the composition thereof and a process to produce the same.
• Rosneft developed a laboratorylevel technology to produce isopropylbenzene using heterogeneous catalysts. It also developed the composition and a process to produce heterogeneous catalysts for benzene alkylation with propylene and transalkylation. The Company intends to revamp its existing isopropylbenzene facilities to reduce production costs and increase margins.

▪ Rosneft ran endurance tests on a residual sulphur.

pilot batch of hydrotreating catalysts for diesel mixtures which proved Ht-120RN catalyst's high capacity while converting diesel mixtures with a sulphur content of 1.45% into diesel fuel containing less than 10 ppm of

▪ The Company developed and patented Russia's first-ever additive package for all-season hydraulic oils. The heavy-loaded pumping tests proved that Rosneft Gidrotec HVLP 46 hydraulic oil with this additive package was on par with foreign peers in terms of quality. Rosneft Gidrotec HVLP 46 with a domestic additive package became Russia's first hydraulic oil certified by a foreign equipment manufacturer, Bosch Rexroth. The additive package is set to substitute for imports currently used by the Company and give it a competitive edge as a producer of energy-efficient HVLP hydraulic oils for industrial and mobile machinery.

Polymeric Materials for Oil Production

▪ The Company continued to test its newly developed proppant made of polymeric materials, with four full-scale (equal in volumes to the use of conventional ceramic proppant at adjacent wells) hydraulic fracturing operations performed at the Samotlor field. These tests affirmed the high performance of ultra-lightweight polymeric proppant based on polydicyclopentadiene (PDCPD) without causing fractures to move upward (without breaking thin barriers between water-saturated formations and the target formation), also proving that the PDCPD-based proppant could be injected with lowviscosity fluids (linear gel, salting liquid) to the formations at the Samotlor field. The Company will rely on this proppant to effectively develop previously unprofitable and thus undeveloped hydrocarbon deposits.

Digital Transformation Focus on Digital Transformation and Technology

Achievements in 2019

2019 saw a total of 24 concepts and 18 prototypes developed and 28 digital solutions tested by the Company's businesses and functions, specifically Exploration and Production, Oil Refining, Commerce and Logistics, Regional Sales, Gas Business, Petrochemicals, HR Management, and Capital Construction. Some of these solutions are now up and running.

• The Company launched the Digital Field project at Bashneft's Ilishevskoye field, the industry's first solution covering all core processes from oil production to logistics. The newest digital technologies will make a real difference at the Ilishevskoye field in terms of production and economic gains. The project will help increase the number of remotely controlled facilities by nearly 60% and energy efficiency by 5%, and reduce logistics costs by 5%.
• Varyeganneftegaz successfully deployed a computer vision technology based on artificial intelligence algorithms which automatically scans hazardous areas in real time to identify whether people are present there and whether they use personal protective equipment, and immediately notifies of emergencies, if any. Rosneft arranged for its live demonstration at the 5th Exploration and Production Technologies Conference.

▪ Rosneft created detailed 3D models for six production assets (RN-Uvatneftegaz, Slavneft-Krasnoyarskneftegaz, RN-Vankor, Kondaneft, Verkhnechonskneftegaz, and Vostsibneftegaz). The models will help create a common oilfield monitoring environment using advanced visualisation and digital 3D twins of physical assets. Its prototype was also presented at the 5th Exploration and Production Technologies Conference. ▪ The newly developed drone monitoring system successfully passed flight tests, including in adverse climatic conditions. It consists of a proprietary unmanned aerial vehicle which can be equipped with a video camera, IR imager or gas sensor, as well as a charging and heating station and flight management software. The system helps inspect infrastructure facilities and pipelines in a safer and easier way. It relies on a computer vision

technology to automatically scan protected areas to identify whether people or machinery are present there, and notify of oil spills, if any. ▪ Samotlorneftegaz successfully deployed a machine learning technology to predict electricallydriven centrifugal pump failures so as to better manage supply chain and optimise inventory. The solution based on artificial intelligence and neural networks will contribute to much more accurate prediction of equipment failures so as to better

plan procurements. ▪ New promising technologies were also identified and tested, including a prototype to manage repair teams which was titled the Digital Well Servicing and Workover Teams. The Company ran preliminary tests on a telemonitoring solution to detect gas leaks using cutting-edge laser gas sensors.

Exploration and Production

Adaptation and Adoption of Advanced Technologies

As part of its efforts to adopt promising efficient technologies developed by Russian and foreign companies, the Company arranged for testing, adaptation, and adoption of innovations while running pilot projects in 2019. These tests helped evaluate their key features and conduct feasibility studies as to their fitness for the geological and operating environment of the Company's exploration and poduction subsidiaries.

In 2019, 152 technologies were put on test by 22 Group Subsidiaries. A total of 511 tests were conducted as part of pilot projects, resulting in 299 kt of incremental oil production. The Company and its relevant business units review the results, assess the economic viability of implementing proposed solutions, and prepare plans for their roll-out and implementation.

As part of the implementation programme, the Company implemented and rolled out 116 new technologies which proved their viability following prior tests. Rosneft spent RUB 3.2 bln to deploy and roll out 6.7 thousand solutions.

Corporate Research and Design Complex

Rosneft includes 29 corporate research and design institutes with over 16 thousand highly qualified professionals, of which 5% hold Ph.D. and research degrees. The institutes opened 43 specialised establishments that act as centres of competence for specific and complex operations.

The amount of work performed by these institutes more than doubled, driven by the growing need of the Company's businesses for their services. The number of designs and estimates provided for the Company's capital construction projects increased significantly, the number of innovation patents rose by 30% while the quality of services improved consistently (by 5% annually).

To ensure technological security, systematic import substitution and cost reduction, the corporate institutes develop a full range of proprietary research software solutions in geology and exploration (RN-KIM, RN-KIN, RN-GRID, RN-Sigma and more) that are now used both within and beyond the Company. The share of the Company's projects that rely on its proprietary software has doubled to 50% compared to 25% in 2016.

The development and roll-out of a standard design system

enabled the Company to provide standard design solutions to 83% of its facilities (35% in 2016). As a result, the Company expects to save over RUB 31 bln in capital expenditure in 2018-22.

Thanks to the in-house service that was built from scratch using the resources of the corporate institutes, Rosneft has become the largest Russian company providing geological support for drilling operations both by the number of wells supported annually and by the quality of geosteering service (including for multilateral complex wells). As a result, the Company moved away from using third-party services and saved more than RUB 1.2 bln.

Message from the Chairman of the Board of Directors

In 2019, the Company maintained its focus on shareholder return growth, paying out record-high dividends while also reducing leverage.

Amid volatility in international financial markets and elevated uncertainty in global affairs, the Board of Directors and the Company's management are committed to ensuring Rosneft's ongoing value appreciation in the long term and to helping the shareholders thrive and prosper.

On 19 December 2019, the Board of Directors approved Rosneft's financial and business targets for 2020–2021. The key objectives are to develop production and diversify markets while ensuring a balanced financial structure and an unwavering focus on social responsibility.

We have plans to launch major oil and gas exploration and production projects, upgrade oil refining capacities, and move forward with digitalisation and innovations. Operating efficiency improvements and expansion of our sales geography remain our priorities.

Responsibility is a pillar of sustainable development, so the Company takes active part in global discussions on reducing greenhouse emissions and liaises with government bodies and industry peers. In 2019, we developed corporate approaches to carbon management, making sure they were aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Rosneft also joined the Guiding Principles on Reducing Methane Emissions across the Natural Gas Value Chain – an initiative of international oil and gas majors. Social responsibility is an ongoing area of focus for the Board of Directors.

We aim to continue providing social guarantees for our personnel, improving

our health, safety and environment performance, and fostering relations with local communities across our geographies.

Last year, the Board of Directors engaged Ernst & Young as an independent advisor to look into the Company's management practices. The professionalism of Rosneft's Board of Directors won strong recognition from the external advisor, but our team still sees areas for improvement. In particular, we intend to hold more in-person meetings of the Board Committees and enhance our succession policy.

Doing well by our shareholders and growing the Company in a sustainable manner remain the long-term priorities for the Board of Directors and the management. To this end, we are targeting a rise in shareholder return vs 2019 as one of our goals in financial and business performance for 2020–2021.

I have every confidence that with diligent planning, ongoing review of internal efficiency, and a focus on business, counterparties, employees and partners, the Company is perfectly positioned to continue delivering on the Rosneft–2022 Strategy.

Anti-corruption Efforts

In 2019, Rosneft continued to focus on countering corruption and corporate fraud and ensuring compliance by the Company's employees with international and Russian anti-corruption laws, and its internal regulations.

Rosneft was consistently improving its framework for building anti-corruption elements of the corporate culture and organisational structure, as well as rules and procedures intended to prevent corporate fraud and corruption and mitigate reputational risks and risks of sanctions for bribery that might be imposed on the Company.

To this end, Rosneft's Council for Business Ethics put together and introduced the Comprehensive Anti-Fraud and Anti-Corruption Programme for 2019–20201 . In 2019, programme activities included:

• adopting Rosneft's Guidelines on Prosecution of the Company's Officers/Employees for the Failure to Prevent and/or Manage a Conflict of Interest2 ;
• drafting and communicating to all employees the Concise Guide to Compliance, including anti-fraud and anti-corruption provisions governing, inter alia, exchange of business gifts and hospitality;
• arranging for and collecting ethical declarations, analysing them and doing selective fact-checking. Rosneft's Council for Business Ethics approved3 the outputs;
• quarterly updating the Company's employees on typical violations of anti-fraud and anti-corruption rules (including management of conflicts of interest);

In the reporting year, the Company kept on updating the Executive Office of the Russian Government on its progress towards Instruction of the Russian Government No. DM-P17-4575 dated 23 July 2018 on the implementation of the National Anti-Corruption Plan for 2018–2020 approved by Presidential Executive Order No. 378 dated 29 June 2018 (5 July 2019, 18 July 2019, 22 November 2019, 25 November 2019, 2 December 2019).

The Company attended the Participation of Organisations in Combating Corruption conference held by the Prosecutor General's Office and the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection of the Russian Federation which focused on anti-corruption law enforcement practices by organisations tasked with supporting federal executive authorities.

The Company has in place the Code of Business and Corporate Ethics (the Code) and the Policy on Combating Corporate Fraud and Involvement in Corruption Activities (the Policy), both approved by Rosneft's Board of Directors, which outline Company-wide principles and approaches aiming to ensure compliance with anti-corruption requirements.

The Code reflects the Company's culture, while underlining its commitment to the highest standards of business ethics

and imposing the responsibility for compliance with ethical standards on all employees regardless of their status and position. The Code explains the key terms on how to manage conflicts of interest and exchange corporate gifts.

The Policy imposes the responsibility on all employees and members of the Company's governing bodies, regardless of their position, for compliance with anti-corruption principles and requirements as well as for actions (omissions) of their subordinates. The Policy also requires employees to report any inducement to corruption offences

to the authorised officers and functions.

The Company also has in place the Regulations on Managing Conflicts of Interest in Rosneft and Group Subsidiaries which set out a framework to classify conflicts of interest, including conflicts of interest between shareholders and members of the Company's governing bodies (e.g. decisions made by corporate governing bodies that might adversely affect the Company's financial and operating performance; the Company failing to make a statutory disclosure or members of corporate governing in governing bodies of other entities, on interests (stakes) held in other entities, or other information required to be disclosed by the applicable laws, the Company's Charter or internal regulations).

Corporate-Wide Risk Management System (CWRMS)

To achieve the ICS objectives, the Company needs to:

A set of elements that provide a Company-wide basis, tools, and framework for risk management

RISK MANAGEMENT INFRASTRUCTURE

¹ Key CWRMS regulations and policies are:

• the Company's Policy on the Risk Management and Internal Control System
• the Company's Standard on the Corporate-Wide Risk Management System (CWRMS)
• the Company's Standard on Insurance of Corporate Risks
• the Company's Regulations on the Risk Management Committee ▪ the Company's Regulations on Market Risk Management

Key CWRMS components

• The both systems have aligned goals.
• The ICS is governed
• by the Company's Policy on the Risk Management and Internal Control System, Standard on the Internal Control System, and Regulations on Design, Implementation
• and Maintenance of the Internal Control System.
• The Company relies on these regulations to identify risks inherent in its business processes and implement controls, thus improving manageability

and efficiency across business processes, reliability of financial statements, and compliance with the applicable laws and internal regulations.

THE INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM (ICS) IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE RM&ICS

Identify shortcomings in existing controls, develop and implement initiatives to address the same; streamline

Develop, adopt and follow controls, including the development of uniform guidelines to support efficient ICS

The Comprehensive RM&ICS Enhancement Plan for 2019–2021 was endorsed by the Company's Risk Management Committee and Chief Executive Officer and approved by Rosneft's Board of Directors.

Corporate Governance

Risk management at Rosneft is governed by the Company's Policy on the Risk Management and Internal Control System and Standard on the Corporate-Wide Risk Management System (CWRMS).

The CWRMS is a combination of interrelated elements embedded into various business processes of the Company (including strategic and business planning processes) and

implemented at all management levels by all employees of the Company.

All key risks of the Company are reported within the CWRMS, including the risks affecting the implementation of its Long-Term Development Programme and the risks related to day-to-day financial and business operations. Risk reports are delivered for review/ approval to the members of the Board's Audit Committee / the Board

of Directors and communicated to the management.

Heads of the Company's business units arrange for and steer risk management processes within their remit. When choosing a risk response and specific mitigants, risk owners seek to find an optimal trade-off while maintaining an acceptable risk level (risk appetite).

IN 2018, ROSNEFT'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED THE COMPANY'S RISK APPETITE FOR 2019:

Since 2014, the USA, EU and some other countries have been imposing various economic constraints on the Russian Federation, among other things, affecting operations of certain companies in the Russian energy and other industries (including Rosneft and some of its subsidiaries).

Rosneft factors in and continuously monitors existing constraints to minimise their adverse effects, and consistently implements its Import Substitution and Equipment Localisation Programme in Russia.

The Company's operating results are very sensitive to changes in the applicable laws, including tax, currency and customs regulations, etc. Rosneft continuously monitors and assesses such changes, and makes projections as to their likely effect on the Company's operations. Rosneft's experts are regular members of working groups drafting bills in various fields of law.

Appendix 6 (Financial Statements and Auditor's Report)

Independent auditor's report

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

PJSC Rosneft Oil Company

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of PJSC Rosneft Oil Company (the "Company"), which comprise the balance sheet as of 31 December 2019, the income statement for 2019, and appendices thereto.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of 31 December 2019 and its financial performance and its cash flows for 2019 in accordance with the rules on preparation of financial statements established in the Russian Federation.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the Russian Federation, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of the audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming the auditor's opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying financial statements.

Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Contributions to the charter capital of subsidiaries related to restructuring

The Company made a number of new investments of shares/units of entities that the Company owns and holds on its balance sheet, to the charter capital of its other subsidiaries in 2019 in order to create and spin-off management sub-holdings. In accordance with Accounting statement 19/02, Financial Investments, where it is impossible to determine the cost of assets transferred or transferable by the organization, the value of financial investments received by the organization under agreements providing for non-monetary compensation (settlement) is based on the price at which the organization normally purchases similar assets under comparable circumstances. As a result, the value of financial investments received should be determined based on the fair value of assets transferred as a contribution to the charter capital.

This matter is one of the most significant in our audit as the respective transactions are significant for financial statements and the calculation of the value of the transferable financial investments requires management to make significant judgments.

Information on the above-mentioned transactions is provided in Note 11 to the financial statements.

We engaged our business valuation experts to review the models prepared to determine the value of the assets transferred to the charter capital. We analyzed assumptions used in the models to verify the value of the assets. We compared discount rates and projected long-term growth rates with general market indicators and other available data. We verified arithmetic accuracy of the models and sensitivity analysis of the models to changes in key assumptions. In addition, we compared the amounts in accounting postings to the respective value calculations and analyzed the approach to fair value measurement of financial investments.

Other information included in the Annual Report

Other information consists of the information included in the Annual Report for 2019, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Management is responsible for the other information. The Annual Report is expected to be provided to us after the date of this auditor's reportOur opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information specified above when it is provided to us and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Responsibilities of management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with the rules on preparation of financial statements established in the Russian Federation, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease its operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISA will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISA, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or override of internal control. the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management and related disclosures.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However,

We communicate with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and have communicated with it all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

4. Information about the accounting policy

The Company developed its accounting policy in accordance with the principles established by Accounting Statement 1/2008, Accounting Policies of an Organization, approved by Oder No. 106n of the Russian Ministry of Finance dated 6 October 2008: ▪ Economic entity assumption according to which the Company's assets and liabilities are accounted for separately from the

• assets and liabilities of other legal entities and individuals
• Going concern assumption according to which the Company will continue its business in the foreseeable future and it neither intends nor has to liquidate or significantly curtail its activities, and, therefore, its liabilities will be duly discharged
• Consistency assumption according to which the Company will consistently apply the adopted accounting policy in its activities

▪ Time period assumptionMaterial accounting methods provided for by the Company's accounting policy in 2019 are reflected below in the respective Explanatory Notes to the balance sheet and the income statement for the 2019 reporting year.

5. Fixed assets and capital construction in progress

Assets intended for use in the manufacturing of products, performance of work and provision of services, or for administrative needs over their useful lives of more than 12 months are accounted for as fixed assets.

Fixed assets include buildings, structures, machinery, equipment, measuring and control instruments and devices, computers, vehicles, tools, fixtures and fittings, etc. Fixed assets also include land plots and natural resources. The Russian Classifier of Fixed Assets approved by Order No. 2018-st of the Federal Agency on Technical Regulation and Metrology (Rosstandart) dated 12 December 2014 is used to determine the structure and grouping of fixed assets.

Items intended to be leased out are recorded in line 1150, Fixed assets. The net book value of such items was:

• kRUB597,600,420 at the end of the period
• kRUB566,447,177 at the beginning of the period

An asset is recognized as a fixed asset on the date it is ready for operation. Fixed assets the rights to which are subject to state registration are included in the fixed assets at the date of delivery to their final destination, if the asset it ready for operation. Using the substance-over-form principle, the completed capital construction projects and purchased real estate items that are actually in operation are also included in fixed assets, regardless of whether the documents for their state registration have actually been submitted. Such items are depreciated in accordance with the established procedure.

For accounting purposes, fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method:

• Assets put into operation before 1 January 2002: at the depreciation rates set by Resolution No. 1072 of the Council of Ministers of the USSR dated 22 October 1990
• Assets put into operation after 1 January 2002: at the depreciation rates calculated based on the useful lives set by Resolution No. 1 of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 1 January 2002
• Assets put into operation after 1 January 2018: at the depreciation rates calculated based on the useful lives set by Resolution No. 1 of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 1 January 2002 as well as based on useful lives indicated in the technical documentation, manufacturers' recommendations, or based on other relevant information that determines the period during which an item of fixed assets is expected to generate economic benefits

The main groups of fixed assets have the following useful lives:

Buildings	30 to 100 years
Structures	10 to 15 years
Machinery and equipment	5 to 7 years

Assets with a value of not more than kRUB40 per unit have been recorded and reported as inventories since 1 January 2014. To ensure the safety of the assets during production or operation, the Company makes arrangements to control their movements. Fixed assets include the following assets (irrespective of their value):

• Land plots
• Buildings
• Structures
• Transfer devices
• Downhole equipment
• Vehicles
• Assets held as joint shared property or joint property
• Assets held for leasing

Fixed assets are reported in the balance sheet at their net book value.

Fixed assets are not revalued following the completion of the mandatory revaluation of fixed assets in accordance with the Resolutions of the Russian Government.

-

In 2019, the value of work performed under capital construction projects amounted to kRUB183,624,014 (net of VAT). Investments in the purchase of equipment, both requiring and not requiring installation, fixed assets and land plots, and in appraisal and exploration drilling amounted to kRUB8,800,503 (net of VAT).

Advances issued for construction, acquisition and manufacturing of fixed assets include the share of advances paid to purchase fixed assets with a value of up to kRUB40 per unit included in inventories. It is impossible to determine the final value of assets before the completion of the work performed to render them fit for use. Therefore, as of the reporting date, advances for acquisition are recognized within capital expenditures.

6. Intangible assets

Intangible assets include:

• Exclusive right of a patent holder to an invention, industrial design or utility model
• Exclusive right to computer software and databases
• Exclusive right to integrated circuit topologies
• Exclusive right to a trademark, service mark, or appellation of origin
• Exclusive right to selection achievements
• Exclusive right to trade secrets (know-how)
• Oil and gas production licenses
• Exclusive subsoil use rights when entering into international agreements that give the right to implement oil and gas exploration and production projects in a foreign jurisdiction or in the Russian Federation (licenses, concession agreements, subsoil use contracts, agreements on the provision of a participating interest, etc.)
• Geological exploration and production licenses (combined licenses), provided that the production of mineral resources in the license area is commercially viable; such licenses are accounted for in the same way as costs arising in connection with the exploration and appraisal of fields until it is confirmed that production is commercially viable
• Other mineral licenses (for the construction of underground gas storage facilities, the production of commonly occurring mineral resources and the abstraction of underground water)
• Deliverables of 3D and 4D seismic surveys (including designing, field works, supervising, processing, interpretation, lease of forest plot) in support of the development at commercially recoverable oil and gas fields
• Information received as the result of drilling the offshore appraisal and exploration wells abandoned as successful due to technological reasons at commercially recoverable fieldsDigital and electronic maps, as well as other spatial data
• Complex items comprising several protected intellectual properties (including those combining exclusive and non-exclusive rights):
• Multimedia product
• Audiovisual works (cinematic works or works involving media similar to those used in cinema (TV movies, videos, etc.))
• Website, etc.
• Other intangible assets

Geological exploration and production licenses (combined licenses) are accounted for in the same way as costs arising in connection with the exploration and appraisal of fields until it is confirmed that production is commercially viable.

Intangible assets are recognized at their actual (historical) cost determined in accordance with Accounting Statement 14/2007, Intangible Assets, approved by Order No. 153n of the Russian Ministry of Finance dated 27 December 2007.

When an intangible asset is created in-house, the related costs are to be capitalized beginning from the development stage, i.e. when the Company can demonstrate:

• The technical feasibility of creating the intangible asset
• Its intention and ability to create the intangible asset and use it
• How the intangible asset will generate probable economic benefits
• The availability of sufficient technical, financial and other resources to complete development and use the intangible asset
• Ability to reliably estimate costs related to the intangible asset during its development

Costs incurred at the research stage are not capitalized and are treated as either expenses related to ordinary activities or other expenses, depending on the purpose of research.

Intangible assets created in-house mean:

• Intangible assets created by the Company's employees when performing their job duties
• Intangible assets resulting from the work performed by contractors under contracts in which the risks of negative results are borne by the Company

The Company created the following intangible assets in the reporting period:

• Exclusive right to computer software and databases with a historical cost of kRUB296,046
• Exclusive rights to an invention with a historical cost of kRUB7,025
• Digital forest management maps with a historical cost of kRUB10,800
• Multimedia products, websites with a historical cost of kRUB1

The actual (historical) cost of an intangible asset acquired under a contract providing for non-monetary compensation (settlement) is determined on the basis of the cost of assets transferred or transferable by the Company. The cost of assets transferred or transferable by the Company is determined on the basis of the price it would normally use to determine the cost of similar assets under comparable circumstances.

Where it is impossible to determine the cost of assets transferred or transferable by the Company under such contracts, the cost of an intangible asset received by the Company is determined on the basis of the price at which similar intangible assets are purchased under comparable circumstances.

Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method or the unit-of-production method:

• Exclusive right of a patent holder to an invention, industrial design or utility model: straight-line method
• Exclusive right to computer software and databases: straight-line method
• Exclusive right to integrated circuit topologies: straight-line method
• Exclusive right to a trademark, service mark, or appellation of origin: straight-line method
• Oil and gas production licenses, provided that the production of mineral resources in the license area is commercially viable: unit-of-production method
• Exclusive subsoil use rights when entering into international agreements that give the right to implement oil and gas exploration and production projects in a foreign jurisdiction or in the Russian Federation (licenses, concession agreements, subsoil use contracts, agreements on the provision of a participating interest, etc.): unit-of-production method
• Geological exploration and production licenses (combined licenses), provided that the production of mineral resources in the license area is commercially viable: unit-of-production method. Proved oil and gas reserves are defined in accordance with Petroleum Resources Management System (PRMS). For the purposes of evaluation of the reserves as of 31 December engineers.
• Other mineral licenses (for the construction of underground gas storage facilities, the production of commonly occurring mineral resources and the abstraction of underground water): straight-line method
• of-production method
• Information received as the result of drilling successful onshore appraisal and exploration wells abandoned due to technological reasons at commercially recoverable oil and gas fields: unit-of-production method
• Digital and electronic maps, as well as other spatial data: straight-line method
• Other intangible assets: straight-line method

2019, the Company used proved oil and gas reserves data prepared by DeGolyer and MacNaughton, independent reservoir

▪ Deliverables of 3D and 4D seismic surveys in support of the development at commercially recoverable oil and gas fields: unit-

The main groups of intangible assets have the following useful lives:

Trademarks	4.1 to 13.6 years
Patents	1.1 to 24.1 years
Exclusive rights to computer software and databases	1.1 to 10 years
Exploration and production licenses *	3 to 173 years

Other mineral licenses (for the abstraction of underground water, construction of gas storage facilities, etc.)	7 to 25 years

¹ Provided that the production of mineral resources in the license area is commercially viable

Intangible assets are not amortized if their useful lives cannot be determined.

The Company annually reviews the amortization method for an intangible asset during inventory counts in order to determine if it should be revised. If the calculation of the expected flow of future economic benefits from an intangible asset has changed significantly, the amortization method for that asset is also changed. The resulting adjustments are recorded and reported as changes in estimates.

If the timing for receiving future economic benefits is not reliably estimated during inventory counts, no changes are made to the amortization method.

Intangible assets are not revalued and are not tested for impairment by the Company.

The Company determined that there was no need to revise the amortization method and the useful lives of intangible assets in the reporting period.

The Company has determined useful lives for all intangible assets.

Intangible assets are reported in the balance sheet at their net book value.

The Company determines the useful life of an intangible asset upon its recognition.

The useful life of an intangible asset is determined on the basis of:

• The term of the Company's rights to intellectual property or means of individualization, and the period of control over the asset
• The period during which the Company is expected to use the asset and receive economic benefits

The Company annually reviews the useful life of an intangible asset in order to determine whether or not it should be revised. In the event of a significant change in the period, during which the company expects to use the asset, the asset's useful life should be revised. The resulting adjustments are recorded and reported as changes in estimates.

7. Oil and gas reserves exploration and estimation costs

Oil and gas reserves exploration and evaluation expenses are recognized using the successful efforts method of accounting, according to which only those costs are capitalized that are directly incurred in the discovery of new fields that will result in future economic benefits, while exploration costs (both direct and indirect), including geological and geophysical costs, are charged to expenses as incurred.

The following oil and gas reserves exploration and evaluation costs should be capitalized: ▪ Costs related to acquiring of subsoil use rights for oil and gas reserves (geological prospecting and exploration licenses,

• geological exploration and production licenses)
• Costs related to appraisal/exploration drilling
• Information on the results of drilling successful abandoned appraisal/exploration wells

Capitalized exploration and evaluation costs lead to the creation of exploration assets:

• Appraisal/exploration wells tangible exploration assets
• Licenses, information on the results of drilling successful abandoned appraisal/exploration wells intangible exploration assets

Expenses related to the construction of offshore appraisal/exploration wells abandoned as successful in the license areas that did not prove to be commercially viable to recover oil and gas are capitalized as follows:

confirmed and there is a possibility that these reserves will be approved by the State Committee on Reserves both with regard to the well (current reserves estimation) and the subsurface area (reserves estimation based on geological results of the well)

• Expenses related to the construction of offshore appraisal/exploration wells are initially recognized as tangible exploration assets and then transferred to intangible exploration assets in the event that the discovery of hydrocarbon reserves is
• Until the decision on commercial viability has been reached, expenses related to the construction of successful abandoned offshore appraisal/exploration wells are recognized as intangible exploration assets in the form of information received as the result of drilling the offshore appraisal/exploration wells

As of the reporting date, the Company annually tests exploration assets for any indication of impairment when making the decision on the commercial viability of oil and gas production in a licensed area. Impairment testing is performed by field (licensed area). Where there is evidence of impairment, the Company writes down the exploration assets by the amount of the carrying value of the licenses, wells and 3D seismic surveys during the stage of exploration and prospecting at a field (licensed area) or, in the event of the recoverability of exploration assets, to the realizable value.

Once the commercial viability of the subsurface area has been established, exploration assets in this area are subject to reclassification:

• Exploration and production licenses, as well as information on the results of drilling successful abandoned appraisal/ exploration wells become intangible assets
• Appraisal/exploration wells become fixed assets (development wells construction in progress)

If production proves to be impractical, exploration assets are subject to impairment and are subsequently written off to other expenses of the Company.

Exploration assets are not depreciated.

The following costs are not capitalized in the value of assets and are taken to current-period expenses as oil and gas exploration and evaluation expenses:

▪ Exploration costs not related to drilling of appraisal/exploration wells or 3D and 4D seismic surveys at commercially recoverable

• Costs incurred at the regional stage
• oil and gas fields, including costs for the follow-up exploration of fields which have been put on stream and considered commercially developed
• Costs related to the maintenance of subsurface areas where exploration is being carried out and of fields which are not commercially operated
• Costs related to the preparation of project technical documentation for developing fields which are not commercially operated

The Company derecognizes exploration assets at the respective subsurface area if it proves to be commercially viable or if production is considered impractical.

Information on tangible exploration assets as of 31 December 2019 is disclosed in line 1140, Tangible exploration assets, including advances issued of kRUB1,865,867 and materials of kRUB44,155 intended for creating tangible exploration assets in the balance sheet.

Change in tangible exploration assets was due to the completion of exploratory drilling in 2019 amounting to kRUB9,604,440, reclassification to intangible exploration assets of information on the results of drilling a successful abandoned appraisal/ exploration well in the amount of kRUB472,973, realization of the exploration well in the amount of kRUB69,019 and write-off of expenses due to other expenses in the amount of kRUB2,350, as the Company has no intention to continue 3D seismic surveys.

In 2019, change in intangible exploration assets was primarily due to the acquisition of licenses to use subsurface resources with the right of extraction in the amount of kRUB7,437,552, and without the right of extraction in the amount of kRUB84,520, reclassification to intangible exploration assets of information on the results of drilling a successful abandoned appraisal/ exploration well in the amount of kRUB472,973, and disposal of geological exploration and production licenses in the amount of kRUB1,003,948 due to reissue of licenses to use subsurface resources.

8. Research and development results

Research and development results include costs incurred during the stage of development of R&D work in progress (recorded as investments in non-current assets) and completed (recognized as intangible assets/R&D).

The Company's costs are recognized in the accounts as R&D in progress if all of the following conditions are met:

• R&D contracts indicate that in the course of work new scientific knowledge is expected to be produced and/or used (information which is unknown, given the current level of technology)
• It is assumed that the positive result of R&D activities will create an opportunity for future economic benefits ▪ It is assumed that the positive completion of R&D activities will make it possible to demonstrate the use of its results in production for management requirements
• The amount of expenses can be defined and confirmed

When R&D projects are developed in-house, the related costs are capitalized from the beginning of the project stage if the Company is able to demonstrate:

• The technical feasibility of developing such R&D projects
• Its intention and ability to develop and use an R&D project
• How the R&D project is likely to generate economic benefits

The availability of sufficient technical, financial and other resources to complete the development of and use the R&D projects ▪ The ability to reliably measure costs related to the development of the R&D project

R&D projects developed in-house include:

- R&D projects developed by Company employees in the course of performing their job duties

▪ R&D projects resulting from contractor work under contracts in respect of which the Company bears the risk of negative results

5 years
ratures	5 years
se waxy oils	5 years

R&D costs incurred at the research stage are not capitalized and are recognized as expenses relating to ordinary activities or other expenses depending on the purpose of the research.

R&D costs are written off to expenses relating to ordinary activities on the first day of the month following the month in which the actual use of the obtained results began.

Upon the completion of R&D activities, in the event of a positive result, the costs related to R&D in progress form the value of R&D project. In the event of a negative result, R&D costs are written off to other expenses.

The R&D project value is written off on a monthly basis using the straight-line method in the amount of 1/12 of the annual amount.

In the event that the use of an R&D project is suspended, the related costs in the form of a monthly write-off amount are to be recognized as other expenses during the period for which the use of the R&D project has been suspended.

Where the Company early terminates using the results of R&D activities in accordance with Order, On writing off R&D expenses, R&D expenses are taken to other expenses.

The write-off period for R&D costs is determined by the Company based on the expected period of use of the results from these activities. This period may not exceed 5 years.

This period for most significant R&D deliverables is as follows:

• Technology for production of highly dearomatized white oils 5 years
• Technology for production of oil bases with low chilling temperatures 5 years
• Technology for production of synthetic high-viscosity-index base waxy oils 5 years

10. Inventories, value added tax, excise duties on self-produced oil products

Inventories are accounted for at their actual cost calculated based on the amount of actual acquisition/ production costs, net of value added tax and other recoverable taxes (except in instances stipulated by Russian law).

Upon disposal, inventories are depreciated using the following methods:

• Oil, construction materials, equipment, spare parts, fuel, packaging, fixtures and fittings, instruments and tools, other inventories – by the cost of every inventory unit (inventory unit is a consignment)
• Oil products by the average cost of production broken down by refinery
• In-house semi-finished products by the average cost of production broken down by refinery
• In-house oil and gas by the average cost of production broken down by operator

Special protective clothes handed over for use are accounted for as materials. The value of special protective clothes with the service life of more than 12 months is depreciated using the straight-line method over the specified period of its use. The value of special protective clothes with the service life of less than 12 months is written off when the clothes are handed over for use.

Materials, fuel, spare parts and other material resources are recorded at their actual acquisition cost.

Work in progress and finished products are recorded at their actual cost; goods are recorded at their acquisition cost.

Shipped finished products and shipped goods, the title to which is not yet transferred to the buyer, are recorded within inventories.

Inventories also comprise transportation and procurement costs attributable to the balance of goods at the warehouse and shipped but unsold goods.

Costs to sell (transportation costs, storage costs, intermediary service costs, customs duties etc.) are recorded within inventories where it is possible to relate them to certain consignments of finished products and goods recognized in accounting records before the sale of consignments to which they relate.

-

-

• The amounts of VAT related to the acquired goods, work, services and property rights to be deducted and not included in the cost
  -

  -

of the assets acquired, or in expenses, are recorded in line 1220 of the balance sheet.

This line also includes the excise duty assessed by Rosneft Oil Company upon accounting for straight-run gasoline, benzene, orthoxylene, paraxylene subject to appropriate certificate and deductible during their refining/disposal.

If there is any indication of impairment, the Company recognizes the decrease in value of inventories in the financial statements.

In accordance with the requirement of prudence, the Company accounts for the impairment of inventories using the method of provisioning.

9. Other non-current assets

Other non-current assets include assets which are assumed to produce economic benefits over a period exceeding 12 months. This line includes prepaid expenses, fixed assets and tangible exploration assets retirement obligations (discounted) (hereinafter, the "ARO asset"), and other assets.

Other non-current assets are valued based on actual costs, except for ARO assets that are subject to accounting estimates.

Prepaid expenses relating to several periods are written off using the straight-line method.

The amount of the ARO assets (with regard to sites or facilities which, when abandoned, require disposal of materials and/or remediation of a land plot) is determined based on the estimated costs at the reporting date, which the Company is expected to incur when dismantling fixed assets and remediating natural resources on occupied land plots.

The ARO asset is depreciated using the unit of production method. Proved developed oil and gas reserves are defined in accordance with Petroleum Resources Management System (PRMS). For the purposes of evaluation of the reserves as of 31 December 2019, the Company used proved oil and gas reserves data prepared by DeGolyer and MacNaughton, independent reservoir engineers.

The rate is applied to the book value at the beginning of the reporting month and reserves in denominator are adjusted to the production volume from the beginning of the year to the beginning of the reporting month.

The ARO asset related to the retirement of tangible exploration assets at the fields where it is not confirmed that the production is commercially viable is not depreciated.

Total	33,452,714	31,951,119	32,318,324

Decrease in inventories was due to the fact that most of the inventories were used in production and shipped to customers. In 2017–2019, inventories were not pledged.

The Company did not have in accounting records any financial investments pledged or transferred to third parties (except for sale).

From 1 January 2016, contributions to assets and other investments to improve the financial position of the Group's entities (financial aid, free of charge transfer of assets, etc.) were subject to capitalization in the cost of the financial investments in the entities in which additional investments were made.

Other short-term financial investments	99,033,035	99,016,935	53,391,836

In 2019, change in the value of long-term financial investments from kRUB6,159,574,705 to kRUB5,833,160,665 was primarily due to the decrease in loans issued of kRUB733,850,326, including due to repayment, revaluation and reclassification of debt; decrease in other financial investments of kRUB55,149,103, including due to repayment and revaluation of credit notes and longterm deposits; increase in interests and investments in the charter capital of subsidiaries of kRUB461,523,868, including as part of creating sub-holding asset management structure.

When calculating the value of interests and investments of sub-holdings by adding up the transferred interests and shares of other subsidiaries, the value is based on the price at which the Company normally purchases similar assets under comparable circumstances. The market value of the transferred interests and shares calculated by an independent appraiser is deemed to be the indicator of such value. The difference between the carrying amount and the market value of the transferred interests and shares is taken to other income (expenses).

In 2019, the value of investments in LLC RN-Inostranniye Proekty increased by kRUB181,344,462, in LLC RN-Kommerciya – by kRUB172,694,698, in LLC RN-Aktiv – by kRUB43,050,00, in LLC RN-Pererabotka – by kRUB28,815,311, in LLC RN-Gaz – by kRUB22,829,296 and in LLC RN-Razvedka i Dobycha – by kRUB10,758,173.

In 2019, change in the value of short-term financial investments from kRUB1,100,833,573 to kRUB985,762,573 was primarily due to repayment of short-term deposits, reclassification of loans and revaluation of short-term promissory notes.

12. Derivative financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss

Derivatives are financial instruments that simultaneously meet the following criteria:The value of a financial instrument is changed in line with the changes in the applied interest rate, security rate, price of goods, foreign currency exchange rate, price or interest rate index, credit rating or credit index or other "basic" variables

• The acquisition of a financial instrument does not require any investments or requires initial net investments but in amounts lower than for other instruments, the price of which has a similar response to market factor changes; and other types of contracts that are expected to have a similar response to market factor changes
• Financial instrument calculations are performed subsequently

11. Financial investments

inancial investments are initially recognized at their actual acquisition cost. Subsequently, financial investments whose market value can be determined are remeasured at market value; and financial investments whose market value cannot be determined are not remeasured, but tested for impairment. When a sustained material decline in the value of financial investments is supported by impairment tests, the Company creates (adjusts) an allowance for impairment of such financial investments as of the last day of the quarter (last day of the reporting year). As of 31 December 2019, the allowance for impairment of financial investments amounts to kRUB44,802,708.

The valuation of financial investments whose market value can be determined is adjusted to the current market value on a quarterly basis. Long-term shares and short-term bonds include investments whose market value can be determined. The difference between current market value at the reporting date and previous valuation of financial investments whose market value can be determined as of 31 December 2018 is kRUB1,078,147 (income). The amount of adjustment was taken to the financial result and recorded as other income.

In general, the current market value may be determined if the relevant quotations are available in the securities market. In this case, the current market value of financial investments is their market value determined as appropriate by an organizer of the trade in the securities market.

Financial investments in the form of shares of PJSOC Bashneft ("Bashneft") quoted in the securities market are accounted for following the procedure provided for financial investments, for which the current market value is not determined. It is due to the fact that quotes in the securities market do not represent a market price (control premium). The volume of shares available for free circulation in the market is insignificant and their sales are not representative for appraising the value of the majority shareholding since they are easily manipulated by stock players.

The historical cost of debt securities whose current market value cannot be determined is not adjusted for the difference between the historical cost and nominal value.

Where it is impossible to determine the cost of assets transferred or transferable by the Company, the value of financial investments received by the Company under contracts providing for non-monetary compensation (settlement) is based on the price at which the Company normally purchases similar financial investments under comparable circumstances.

Debt securities and loans issued are not measured at present value.At disposal of assets recognized as financial investments, for which the current market value is determined, the value of such assets is based on their most recent valuation.

Financial investments whose current market value cannot be determined are measured at historical cost of each unit disposed.

Deposits with the maturity period not exceeding 91 days are not considered to be financial investments and are recorded within cash in the financial statements.

Short-term debt related to financial investments is reclassified to long-term debt in cases when the payment terms envisaged by the agreement are revised and increased to exceed 365 days after the reporting date.

Long-term debt related to financial investments is reclassified to short-term debt when the term to maturity under the agreement remains 365 days or less after the reporting date.

The value of all financial investments previously remeasured at market value is recorded at the current market value as of the reporting date. The Company did not have in accounting records any financial investments measured at market value with undetermined market value at the reporting date.

According to the strategy for managing foreign currency risk related to cash flows from future proceeds in foreign currency, export revenue should be hedged in the amount of net monetary position denominated in US dollars. The Company regularly aligns the nominal amount of hedging and net monetary position in US dollars. As of 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, there were no designated hedging instruments.

14. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include the Company's amounts with banks and credit institutions, in operational and other cash offices, as well as deposits and other cash equivalents with the maturity period not exceeding 91 days.

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash flows are classified based on the criteria specified in clauses 9–11 of Accounting Statement 23/2011.

Cash flows that cannot be reliably classified are recognized as cash flows from operating activities.

Foreign currency cash flows are translated into Russian rubles at the official rate of the foreign currency to Russian ruble set by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation at the date of payment or receipt. The average exchange rate is not applied to translate cash flows. There is no cash unavailable for use by the Company.

Deposits with the maturity period not exceeding 91 days and other cash equivalents	50,917,510	94,422,491	1,470,990

In managing foreign currency and interest rate risks, the Company entered into cross currency and interest rate swaps to sell US dollars and euro that help match the currency of revenue and the currency of liabilities, and reduced absolute interest rates for the debt financing raised.

Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value.

The method for determining the fair value of transactions is based on the assessment of the present discounted value of future cash flows using the consensus projections of foreign exchange rates. The consensus projections comprise forecasts of key international banks and agencies. The Bloomberg system is the key source of information for making projections.

Profit or losses arising during the period as adjustments upon change in the fair value are recognized in the income statement.

The change in the fair value of the derivative financial instrument means the difference between the fair value at the beginning of the reporting period (or at the date of acquisition, whichever is more recent) and at the end of the reporting period.

Derivative financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are recorded as assets (liabilities) in the balance sheet in similar lines depending on their maturity.

As of the reporting date, short-term liabilities on derivative financial instruments include liabilities related to cross currency and interest rate swaps.

Transactions with derivative financial instruments are presented below:

13. Information on hedging transactions

Managing currency risk related to changes in cash flows from future proceeds in foreign currency

Hedging transactions are operations (set of operations) with term transaction financial instruments (including those of different types), performed to minimize (compensate for) adverse effects, fully or partially, caused by the loss incurred, income deficiency, decrease in revenue, decrease in market value of the property, including property rights (rights of claim), increase in the Company's liabilities due to change in price, interest rate, currency exchange rate, including the rate of a foreign currency to the rate of the currency of the Russian Federation, or another indicator (set of indicators) of a hedged item (items).

In the reporting year, the Company performed transactions to hedge the cash flows from the Company's future exports due to foreign currency risks attributed to export revenue denominated in foreign currency mainly in US dollars. The Company raises borrowings in the same currency as the future revenue to economically hedge the foreign currency risk exposure.The Company designated part of its USD‑denominated borrowings as a hedging instrument for export revenue which is likely to be received.

A portion of the future monthly export revenue expected to be received in US dollars was designated as a hedged item. The nominal amounts of the hedged item and the hedging instrument are equal. To the extent that a change in the foreign currency rate impacts the hedging instrument, the effects were recorded in other funds and reserves in accordance with the Company's accounting policy; subsequently these effects should be transferred into profit or loss for the period, in which the hedged revenue is recognized.

16. Long-term and short-term loans and borrowings, other liabilities and collateral pledged

Loans and borrowings payable are accounted for and recorded in financial statements in accordance with the respective existing agreements.

The Company reclassifies short-term loans and borrowings payable into long-term payables if the repayment period under the existing agreement is revised and increased to exceed 365 days. The Company reclassifies long-term payables into short-term payables where the outstanding period to maturity becomes 365 days or less.

The interest amounts payable under loans and borrowings received are accrued on a straight-line basis regardless of the conditions of loans (borrowings). Additional expenses for loans (borrowings), other than commissions on loans (borrowings) raised, such as bank commissions for using loan funds, originating a loan, obtaining and maintaining a line of credit, and other bank commissions (fees) related to raising loans (borrowings) are recorded as a lump sum in other expenses.

Where commissions on loans (borrowings) are material, they are included in other expenses on a straight-line basis over the loan (borrowing) maturity period.

The commissions on loans (borrowings) that are not written off as of the reporting date are shown on the balance sheet as other non-current assets or other current assets depending on their remaining period of recognition as expenses (more than 12 months or less than 12 months, respectively).

For the purposes of capitalizing interest on loans and borrowings into the cost of acquired assets, such investment assets shall be assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time (over 12 months) to get ready for their intended use through acquisition, construction or production.Investment assets consist of items of non-current assets, work-in-progress and construction-inprogress which will subsequently be accounted for by the borrower and/or customer (investor, buyer) as fixed assets (including land), intangible assets, exploration and evaluation costs or other non-current assets.

In 2019, the Company raised loans from Russian banks at floating and fixed rates to replenish working capital. Loans were repaid under relevant agreements both early and in accordance with the schedule.

Loans payable recorded in the financial statements as of the reporting date include the accrued interest.

Borrowing costs included in other expenses amounted to kRUB146,674.

Total interest of kRUB81,825,457 was accrued on the Company's loans for the reporting period. Interest payable increased by kRUB4,709,567 year-on-year.

Interest capitalized in the cost of investment assets created (acquired) was kRUB17,336,510. The amount of interest included in the cost of an investment asset and payable to the lender (creditor) on loans received for purposes other than acquisition, construction and/or production of the investment asset totaled kRUB17,274,260.

15. Accounts receivable and accounts payable

Accounts receivable and payable are accounted for and recorded in financial statements in accordance with the respective existing agreements. Net result is recognized in the financial statements if there are advances issued/received and accrued accounts receivable/ payable under the same agreement.

Accounts receivable from suppliers and contractors include advances issued that are recorded in the balance sheet less VAT deductible or deducted at the reporting date in accordance with the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. VAT on advances (deductible but not claimed for deduction at the reporting date) is recorded in the balance sheet within other current assets.

Accounts payable to suppliers and contractors include advances received that are recorded in the balance sheet less VAT on advances received.

Accounts receivable include non-income-bearing financial investments within Rosneft Oil Company Group.

The Company receives no government financing.

Allowance for impairment of accounts receivable is made on the basis of settlements with other organizations and individuals for products, goods, work and services, advances issued and other accounts receivable, and is recorded in the income statement as other expenses.

Short-term accounts receivable and payable are reclassified into long-term in cases where payment periods under existing contracts are revised and increased to exceed 365 days.

Long-term accounts receivable and payable are reclassified into short-term where the term to maturity under existing contracts becomes 365 days or less.

Similarly, part of long-term accounts receivable and payable is reclassified into short-term if the existing contract provides for repayment by installments in different periods.

In 2013 and 2014, the Company signed a number of long-term oil and oil product supply contracts that provide for receipt of a prepayment. The total minimum amount of future supplies under these contracts is around 400 million tons.

The contracts include the following main terms:

• Prepayment shall not exceed 30 % of the cost of the total contracted amount of crude oil
• The oil price shall be based on current market quotes
• Prepayment is settled through physical deliveries of crude oil

From 1 January 2015, scheduled oil supplies started under the long-term contracts that provide for prepayments. In 2019 and 2018, offset of prepayments under these contracts amounted to RUB344 billion and RUB283 billion (USD7.08 billion and USD7.03 billion at the CBR official exchange rate at the dates of prepayments, not subject to revaluation at the current exchange rate).

17. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies

Changes in foreign exchange rates, particularly in US dollar and euro rates, have a significant effect on the Company's financial and business performance.

20. Income and expenses, retained earnings

Revenue from sales of goods, work and services is recognized as and when the goods are shipped, work is performed and services are rendered, and settlement documents are presented to customers (clients).

To ensure timely reflection of business events, if necessary, the Company uses the accrual method in accordance with Accounting Statement 9/99, Revenues of an Organization, provided that the criteria for revenue recognition are met. In this case, revenue is recognized based on updates provided by Company's business units.

The Company applies a method that involves calculating incomplete cost of goods (direct costing), and therefore general and administrative expenses are fully debited to the "Sales" account, i.e. are fully recognized in the reporting period without allocating them to balances of work in progress and finished goods (except for general expenses directly related to acquisition, construction and production of assets, which are included in the cost of assets).

From 1 January 2019, the Company realizes its right to refund the excise duty applied to its locally refined crude oil (reverse excise duty). This excise duty was recognized in the income statement within cost of sales by decreasing the cost of sales for the reporting period.

From 1 January 2019, tax on additional income from the extraction of hydrocarbons was introduced with respect to certain license areas of the Company and is subject to recognition within costs included in the cost of sales, without inclusion in the unit cost of finished goods.

Selling expenses are allocated between sold products (goods) and products (goods) that were shipped but not sold, including finished products (goods) at the warehouse.

The Company's total advertising expenses (not broken down by type of products) are recognized in selling expenses.

The use of profit is recognized in accounting records and financial statements in the year following the reporting years pursuant to the decision of the shareholders' meeting. A portion of the profit that was not paid out as dividends pursuant to the decision of the shareholders, is recognized in the financial statements in retained earnings (uncovered loss). If this profit is used for capital investments, the total balance of the retained earnings (uncovered loss) is not decreased.

As of 31 December 2019, retained earnings of prior years amounted to kRUB1,908,151,961 (31 December 2018: kRUB2,028,141,822).

Changes in the profit of prior years resulted mainly from accrued dividends in the amount of kRUB120,077,355.

The following income and expenses affected the retained earnings for the reporting year:

The Company is involved in litigations, which arise from time to time in the course of its business activities. Management of the Company believes that the ultimate result of those litigations will not materially affect the performance or financial position of Rosneft Oil Company.

Due to the pollution of oil in the trunk pipeline "Druzhba" in April 2019 a number of claims from the customers were submitted to Rosneft Oil Company during 2019, stating that the supplied oil substantially exceeded maximum permitted levels of organochlorine compounds (compared to the levels determined by the relevant technical regulations and standards). However, Rosneft Oil Company delivered oil to the system of oil trunk pipelines of PJSC Transneft in compliance with the requirements of technical regulations and standards.

In addition, the Company received claims from customers that did not receive the contracted amounts of oil due to the oil pumping interruption in the trunk oil pipeline "Druzhba" resulting from the pollution.

Calculation of losses incurred by Rosneft Oil Company can be finalized after the completion of the comprehensive assessment of the impact of the incident on the Company's activities (including the forced reduction in oil production due to the reduced oil intake into the system of PJSC Transneft), obtaining a complete and legally supported claims from all counterparties and their resubmission to PJSC Transneft for compensation.

A provision is an obligation of the Company with an indefinite amount and/or time of settlement. A provision may arise: ▪ From laws and other regulations, court rulings or agreements

▪ As a result of the Company's activities which indicate, based on the existing practices or statements of the Company, that the Company undertakes certain obligations and, consequently, is reasonably expected to settle these obligations

A provision is recognized in accounting records when all of the following criteria are met:

▪ The Company has an obligation resulting from its past business operations that cannot be avoided In case of doubt concerning

• such liability, the Company shall recognize an estimated liability if, based on the results of analysis of all circumstances and conditions, including expert opinions, it is more likely than not that a liability exists.
• It is likely that settling the provision will result in an outflow of the Company's economic benefits (the likelihood is > 50 %)
• The amount of the provision can be reliably estimated

Provisions, contingencies and commitments are not absolute legal obligations of Rosneft Oil Company.

Pursuant to Accounting Statement 8/2010, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets (effective from the date of issue of the financial statements in 2011), the Company has environmental provisions.

The estimation is performed based on the Company's internal (management) reports that form the system of environmental information.

27.4 Risk management

Business environment

Russia continues economic reforms and development of its legal, tax and regulatory frameworks as required by a market economy. The future stability of the Russian economy is largely dependent upon these reforms and developments and the effectiveness of economic, financial and monetary measures undertaken by the Russian government.

The Russian economy has been negatively affected by sanctions imposed on Russia by a number of countries. The ruble interest rates remain high. The combination of the above resulted in reduced access to capital, a higher cost of capital and increased uncertainty regarding economic growth, which could negatively affect the Company's future financial position, operating results and business prospects.

Management is taking appropriate measures to support the sustainability of the Company's business in the current circumstances.

Risks and opportunities associated with climate change

Within the framework of its corporate risk management system, the Company on an annual basis identifies and evaluates risks and opportunities relevant to its business activities, including those related to climate change.

In the process of investment decision making, the risks associated with health, safety and environment (HSE), ecology, and climate change are analyzed. For large projects, the analysis of the alignment with the Company's strategic goals, environmental standards and requirements of the Russian legislation and international organizations is performed, as well as the analysis and assessment of external risks related to the impact on the environment (changes in legislation, changes in technologies, market risks, reputational risks, etc.).
