About what opportunities for import substitution the oil and gas sector has today, whether it is possible to successfully localize equipment, «EPR» said Alexander Romanikhin, ex-president of the Union of Oil and Gas Equipment Manufacturers, chairman of the rating agency Center for Fuel and Energy Complex Suppliers. – Alexander Vladimirovich, how critical is the current situation for Russian manufacturers? How will the oil and gas complex function in the face of tough sanctions on equipment for oil production and oil refining?
– We need to look at the sectors. In some areas we can manage, somewhere it will be very difficult. In gas chemical and petrochemical projects where the licensor is Western, his departure will be painfully reflected in the fate of the project. There are no particular problems in oil and gas production, because in general this equipment is still produced. The problem is different: we do not have a component base, the simplest products and materials, without which import substitution is impossible. And this is a problem not only for the oil and gas complex, but for all industries.
– Is it possible to localize the production of equipment and services for oil and gas? For example, if four oil service giants left Russia, Will we be able to close this site on our own and how soon?
