Personal qualities, characteristics

Vladimir Bogdanov looks absolutely not an "oligarch": he dresses modestly, is short and thin. People who know him closely claim that he retained an almost boyish openness and radiant smile. Since Bogdanov is a secretive person and does not like journalists, the Russian media responds by endowing the head of Surgutneftegaz with bright characteristics, confirming them with rumors and tales:

Cruel
Reception queue. Those gathered wait for several hours. Finally Bogdanov comes out. After carefully examining the people, he categorically says: "Who are you? I remember you and you. Hold up. The rest are on ...". The people tolerate all this, because Bogdanov is just as tough with himself.

Selfless
Once, when Bogdanov worked as an engineer in the Nizhnevartovsk drilling department, his wife sent him to the store on a weekend. I stood in line, replaying in my head some events that had happened the day before in one of the brigades. He came to himself already in the hospital: he fainted. Diagnosis: extreme fatigue, nervous and physical exhaustion.

Scattered in everyday life
They say that during lunch you can slip anything you want; while reading the newspaper, he will not even notice what he ate - a boiled egg or a lobster. Therefore, he probably dines at home under the watch of his wife. By the way, he walks to and from work, as he lives nearby. Employees of the company often see Bogdanov skipping to work, and a security guard barely keeping up with him.

Stubborn
Even at social events, he manages to torture the interlocutor by talking about production problems. They told how a certain deputy minister at one of the feasts tried to escape from him in order to dance - this is how Bogdanov stubbornly pursued him, gesturing and proving something right during the dance.

Has a sixth sense
Some consider his sixth sense to be almost animal. If Stanislavsky believed that playing spontaneity is the most difficult thing, then for Bogdanov it is impossible to play it: he catches semitones of falsehood inaccessible to the ordinary ear. It seems that he is able to distinguish even ingenious deception from art. Most likely at the energy level.

Vigorous
Sluggishness annoys him. Even an unreasonable waste of a few minutes. He moves in space so rapidly that even specially trained guards have to catch up with him all the time. Swiftness is in everything. And at the same time - not a shadow of fuss.

Cutting
Bogdanov is equally intolerant of unprofessionalism. He once noticed that for a quarter of a century, during which he has served the oil industry faithfully and truly, he has never had a deep understanding of problems even at the level of an industry minister.

He is emotional to the point of explosiveness. But he is quick-witted. Although outwardly, his face even at critical moments expresses complete equanimity. A keen interest in him arouses the mind of the interlocutor, and excessive stupidity - curiosity. It doesn't seem to recognize halftones. He is either interested or too bored. The only thing that always turns him on with half a turn is the discussion of issues of economic policy of the past.

Prudent and correct
The fact that he, as a rule, does not make mistakes in partners and does not panic if they do not cope with obligations for some time is evidenced by such an episode. After the 1998 crisis, a large amount of money "hung" in ONEKSIMbank. And Bogdanov had well-founded concerns about their liquidity. But he understood that the situation was difficult. And he behaved extremely correctly - he agreed to wait for the complete restructuring and the formation of a new bank. And he waited.

Hobbies, hobbies

According to the "Dengi" magazine, Bogdanov has been spending his vacation for several years in a depressingly monotonous manner - he goes to his parents in the village for haymaking. To avoid trouble, the press service of Surgutneftegaz does not disclose either the name of the village or its location.

Bogdanov spent his first vacation abroad only in 1999 - in Karlovy Vary. Until now, he traveled abroad on an official basis.

Political Views

"For me, Vladimir Putin is an example of an analytical mind. Yes, this is the result of his work in the state security agencies. But, forgive me, why are we so scared? Wasn't it in these bodies that the best heads in Russia were in demand at one time? Didn't these heads provide Does Russia have high international prestige? ", Says Vladimir Bogdanov.

He doesn't like to talk about politics. But he speaks well of Putin. He says that he is a model of the analytical mind. He has the main thing - the ability to see the essence of each problem, to separate the main from the secondary.

According to Bogdanov, Putin's everything instantly falls into place, and the cart does not run ahead of the horse. And he was convinced of this after the speech of the President of the Russian Federation at the industry meeting in Surgut. “In his report, the main problems of the industry were so clearly, sharply and uncompromisingly set that there is no doubt about his vision of ways to solve these problems. In recent years, many of the meeting were literally shocked by his questions, which really hit not in the eyebrow, but in the eye. "

Bogdanov declares: today we can say with complete confidence: the country's leadership has political will, and this is the main thing.

He built his empire without political influence - solely for reasons of economic expediency. Strongly against benefits and state support... Its principle is that competition must be fair and the conditions for all companies must be equal. "We have never asked anything from the state, except for normal laws, and we do not intend to either ask or bargain for special conditions for ourselves."

Bogdanov never engaged in political intrigue. On the contrary, he has a persistent aversion to such methods of business enlargement.

Press about Vladimir Bogdanov

Former driller Vladimir Bogdanov is a dark horse and a white crow rolled into one, Profil Magazine wrote on January 17, 2000. The head of Russia's third-largest oil company, Surgutneftegaz, prefers to stay out of the picture. It is in Bogdanov's character not to be in sight. His principle: they know less about you - less problems.

Lives in Surgut, does not like the capital, does not communicate with journalists. He is not involved in scandals; he participated in numerous meetings between Yeltsin and the "oligarchs" only once - last summer. However, in Surgut, his name, like the name of the company, is breathed and added: "If only I don't go to Moscow."

Bogdanov's habit of relying solely on his own strength meets with approval not only in the region, but also in the center. Surgutneftegaz did not attract foreign loans, it managed not to become dependent on Moscow financial groupsMoreover, he is himself a shareholder of ONEXIM Bank. The company received an important status as a general contractor in the construction of a new oil port in the Batareynaya Bay. Like LUKoil, the company was able to "purchase itself" from state property, and Vladimir Bogdanov took a strong position as manager-owner ("Profile" magazine, February 23, 1999)

Bogdanov has three commandments: don’t borrow money, don’t waste money and have everything of your own. The head of Surgutneftegaz, Vladimir Bogdanov, is often called the "white crow". Although he himself does not care at all. He just does what he thinks is right. And he considers the formation of public opinion absolutely useless, noted the magazine "Company" on June 2, 1998.

In 1999, Bogdanov amazed the "oil community" by showing profits of almost $ 1 billion. None of his colleagues dared to undertake such a feat either before or after.

Without a doubt, Bogdanov is one of the most successful top managers in Russia. And like no one else knows the whole ins and outs of the industry, since he began his career as an assistant driller. He always distanced himself from politics, and now he is the only oil worker who is not assigned to any "family" (Business People Magazine, January 5, 2001)

Surgutneftegaz often repeats the phrase: "The less they know about the company, the less problems it has." At the same time, in unofficial conversations, the employees of Surgetneftegaz explain their dislike of communication with precautions. They complain that they don't like the company just because it is successful. This tactic of behavior is explained by the position of President Vladimir Bogdanov. Many call him the Surgut recluse. Friends are a patriot of Surgut.

It is argued that adventurism is absolutely not characteristic of Bogdanov. I achieved everything with work and diligence. Without a doubt, he is not a sprinter, he is a stayer. And one of the most successful top managers in Russia.

They say Bogdanov was on the list personnel reserve The Kremlin. At least on the list of candidates for the post of Minister of Energy. And residents of Surgut eagerly say that Putin offered Bogdanov the chair of the prime minister. But Bogdanov himself denies all this: "Nobody talked to me about joining the government, nobody made such proposals." (Business People Magazine, 01.09.2000)

Bogdanov's regional patriotism is expressed in the fact that, according to the president of Surgutneftegaz, he is "happy that he can walk to work." Accordingly, "CIS" is the only vertically integrated oil company in the country that has its headquarters not in Moscow, but in Surgut, and conducts financial settlements through a local bank, and not through Tokobank or Imperial. All this makes Vladimir Bogdanov and "CIS" a favorite of the Tyumen and Khanty-Mansiysk administrations and at the same time creates a positive reputation for the company in the central management (Business People Magazine, 05/18/1996).

    As a vertically integrated company, OJSC “Surgutneftegas” has been on the market for a little over 15 years. But the enterprises that became part of it during the privatization of the Russian oil complex have a rather rich history: more than 45 years of experience in oil production, 43 years of work in the oil refining industry, from 50 to 100 years of oil products supply.

    Oil production

    The company's oil and gas production enterprise originates from the Surgutneft oil production department, established in 1964. The beginning of the development of Big Oil in Western Siberia is associated with his name.

    The enterprise was created practically from scratch, the only artery connecting Surgut with the outside world was the Ob River. There was not a single capital building in the region, not a single kilometer of paved roads, and the all-terrain vehicle was the most common means of transportation here until the early 70s.

    Oil production in the early years of field development was seasonal - in the warm season, the extracted oil was shipped by barges along the river to the Omsk oil refinery. The wells were stopped for the winter.

    With the commissioning of the Ust-Balyk-Omsk oil pipeline in 1967, the fields began to operate all year round.

    Climate and terrain were not allowed here traditional ways road construction, well drilling, pipeline construction, field development. In fact, the Surgutneft oil field department became a testing ground where methods and methods of developing fields in complex mining and geological and climatic conditions - and a kind of forge of personnel for all oil and gas production enterprises in Western Siberia.

    In the late 70s, Surgut began to be called the "oil capital of Siberia"; it becomes the center of development of the North of the Tyumen region. By this time, the city had created the most powerful electric power base in Europe - Surgutskaya GRES-1, operating on associated petroleum gas, the largest base for the construction industry in the region was established, railway, motorway, airport built.

    In October 1977, Surgutneftegaz received the status of a diversified production association, and in 1993 the association was transformed into an open joint stock company.

    For the period January-December 2017, oil production:

    • Rosneft - 210.8 million tons (-0.3%),
    • Lukoil - 82.2 million tons (-1.6%),
    • Surgutneftegaz - 60.5 million tons (-2.1%),
    • Gazprom Neft - 59.9 million tons (+ 3.8%),
    • Tatneft - 28.9 million tons (+ 0.9%),
    • «

      In 1972, in terms of processing volumes, KINEF entered the top five largest in the country. The production was aimed exclusively at providing fuel to the North-West region of Russia. The commissioning of the refinery eliminated the problem of the shortage of petroleum products, which hindered the development of the economy of this region. With the commissioning of the Yaroslavl-Kirishi oil pipeline in 1969, the refinery was able to process oil from West Siberian fields; its proximity to the Baltic ports opened up the possibility of profitable export of oil products to Western Europe.

      Today the plant is one of the most powerful fuel and petrochemical enterprises operating in Russia. The city of Kirishi, for which Kirishinefteorgsintez is the main town-forming enterprise, today is one of the most beautiful cities in the Leningrad Region.

      Sales sphere

      The history of some of the company's sales enterprises - Lennefteprodukt, Novgorodnefteprodukt, Tvernefteprodukt - goes back to the early 20th century and is associated with the name of the Nobel brothers, who created the first oil products trading enterprises in Russia. On the territory of the Tver region, there are still several tanks built at the beginning of the 20th century by the method of hand riveting.

      In the 20s and even 30s of the twentieth century, when the industrialization of the country began, petroleum product supply enterprises developed poorly, since cars were still a rarity, steam locomotives used mainly coal, river and sea vessels were just starting to use fuel oil as fuel, only kerosene for household needs of the population every year required more and more. In those years, oil depots were built, which are small warehouses with tanks with a capacity of 0.5 to 2 cubic meters. meters, the release of petroleum products was carried out manually.

      In fact, petroleum product supply enterprises were developed only in the late forties and fifties.

      The history of Kaliningradnefteproduct begins in 1946, the enterprise was created on the basis of the facilities of the Shell and Nitag firms that operated in the pre-war period in East Prussia. Tanks made of the famous Krupp steel and the only surviving pre-war gas station building, like living witnesses of the time, remain unchanged to this day.

      Today, all sales enterprises of the company take leading positions in their regions in terms of the quality of the oil products sold, in terms of service level, in originality of style.

      Gas production

      Gas production in Russia in 2017 amounted to 690.5 billion cubic meters. m (+ 7.9% by 2016).

      Production indicators of companies in 2017:

    The CEO and owner of 0.37% of Surgutneftegaz shares lives in an ordinary apartment building and modestly rests in Karlovy Vary.

    General Director and co-owner of Surgutneftegaz Vladimir Bogdanov knows how to keep secrets. Why does his company keep astronomical amounts on deposits in Russian banks, mostly in US dollars? The richest resident of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug, general director and co-owner of Surgutneftegaz, the third largest Russian oil company after Rosneft and Lukoil, Vladimir Bogdanov F \u200b\u200b49 recently won a state prize, the first in his life. The prize in the field of science was awarded to him for "the creation of rational systems for the development of oil, oil and gas and gas and oil fields in Western Siberia." It was presented personally by President Putin in a solemn atmosphere in the Kremlin on June 12, 2017.

    Few of the Russian billionaires can boast of such a high assessment of their work. In the top ten of the Forbes list, no one has a state award, including the president of Lukoil, Vagit Alekperov F 6. Meanwhile, Bogdanov occupies a modest 49th place in the ranking with a fortune of $ 1.9 billion. He has been on all Forbes lists since 2004, and the estimate of his fortune has changed slightly, from $ 1.7 billion to $ 4.4 billion.

    In life, the billionaire is modest, and he avoids publicity. He was last interviewed for Forbes in 2004. Then for many years the image of an ascetic living in Surgut in an ordinary apartment building and having a budget vacation in Karlovy Vary was entrenched in him. Forbes' next question about whether anything has changed since then remained unanswered. The secretary in Bogdanov's reception told Forbes that he was on vacation, e-mail throughout the company was disabled “due to the threat of hacker attacks,” and there was no operational communication with the manager.

    Bogdanov joined Surgutneftegaz in 1976, in 1984 at the age of 33 he became the general director of the enterprise, and in 1995 he organized a scheme to buy out a state block of 40.16% of shares through a loans-for-shares auction. Since then, the structure of the company's share capital has changed several times, but who its real owners are is still a mystery behind seven seals. In its 2016 report, Surgut states that “the company's shares are distributed among shareholders, none of which is the ultimate controlling party and does not have significant influence”. Bogdanov how natural person today it owns 0.37% of ordinary shares of Surgutneftegaz.

    Another secret of Surgut is the astronomical amount of funds that the company keeps on deposits in Russian banks, mainly in US dollars. By the end of 2016, this amount was 2.181 trillion rubles, or $ 36 billion. This is almost 20% of all deposits of Russian companies in all Russian banks. In Sberbank, Russian companies keep 2.637 trillion rubles on deposits, in VTB - 2.181 trillion rubles (this is exactly the amount that Surgut has accumulated). In all other banks this figure is much lower.

    Why does Surgut need so much cash? “We have something to spend on: we are developing new provinces. This money is a safety mechanism: nobody knows what will happen to oil prices. We need them for the collective to live in peace. If the situation of 1998 happens again, what will we do then? " - Bogdanov answered the questions of shareholders at the annual meeting in 2013. By that time, Surgut had already accumulated 1 trillion rubles, or $ 31 billion at the then exchange rate. The oil price fell more than twice, but the stash remained intact. On the market, Surgutneftegaz with accumulated $ 36 billion is worth only $ 20 billion.

    Surgutneftegaz , 29.04.05 , "Interview with Vladimir Bogdanov"

    Interview with Vladimir Bogdanov, General Director of OJSC "Surgutneftegas": "The current rules of the game do not work in new regions."

    Question: This year the oil industry shows a decrease in the rate of growth of oil production. The forecast of the Ministry of Economic Development for the medium term is also very conservative; in 2007, according to the forecasts of the Ministry, the growth will amount to only 0.6% per year. At the same time, Surgutneftegas is now among the leaders among oil companies in terms of oil production growth. How will the oil production of Surgutneftegaz develop in the medium term? What is your forecast for the oil industry as a whole for the next 5 years, what is the difference in the development of oil production of Surgutneftegaz from other companies? What is the secret of the dynamics of oil production growth at Surgutneftegaz?

    Answer: In Russia as a whole, the rate of growth of oil production in the first quarter amounted to 3.6 percent, while OJSC “Surgutneftegas” increased by 7 percent. There is no big secret here, the dynamics of production growth is determined by the scale of investments in previous years. Every year, to maintain and increase the level of production in our company, about 1.5 billion dollars of capital investments are required, so in 2004 capital investments in oil production amounted to 41 billion rubles. These funds are invested primarily in the preparation of new reserves. Every year Surgutneftegas puts into development 3-4 new fields. We must not forget that 33% of production drilling in Russia as a whole falls on the share of Surgutneftegaz. And these are new capacities that allow the company to ensure a systematic increase in production, without "spikes", which inevitably follow a decline.

    This year, Surgutneftegaz will reach the level of oil production of 63.7 million tons, next year - at the level of 67.7 million tons, and by 2007 we will reach 70 million tons. This does not include production in Eastern Siberia. Along with the commissioning of new fields, we pay a lot of attention to the introduction of advanced technologies at old fields. Where, according to all the canons and calculations, there should be a decline in production rates, the company demonstrates stabilization and even an increase in production due to increased oil recovery.

    In Russia as a whole, there are objective reasons for the downward trend in production growth: first of all, the resource base is deteriorating. Today, those deposits that are discovered and put into operation in traditional production regions are distinguished by more difficult mining and geological conditions, and, as a result, are initially more costly and less profitable, requiring the use of the latest technologies already at the initial stage of their development. Without their use, it becomes problematic for companies to reach an acceptable production level.

    As a percentage, the share of active reserves in Russia is decreasing every year. If today the share of active reserves in the total volume of production is about 2/3, then with each subsequent year the balance will change towards an increase in the share of “complex” reserves in the total indicator of annual oil production.

    But the profitability of production cannot be ensured only through new technologies, which are a priori high-cost. The development of new fields now requires new tax regimes and new approaches to solving infrastructure problems. New territories - Eastern Siberia, Nenets Okrug, and partly Western Siberia - are not provided with infrastructure. For example, Surgutneftegaz in next year introduces the large West Siberian Rogozhnikovskoye field, located 550 km from Surgut. In addition to its remoteness from transport routes, this field is also characterized by difficult geological conditions; oil will be extracted initially from deeper layers.

    If today we do not work for the future, then in 5-10 years we can predict a drop in oil production in the country, and, first of all, this may affect companies operating in high-production fields. To a lesser extent, this will affect low-yield fields, where the rate of production is much lower. A simple example, if one well with a flow rate of 500 tons goes out of operation, then to replace it, at least 30 wells must be drilled. The retirement of a 10 ton low production well will have a much smaller impact on the overall production level.

    Vladimir Bogdanov

    Question: The gas component of Surgutneftegaz's business allowed the company to reach a new level and become, in fact, not just an oil, but an energy company. How will the gas and energy components of the company develop further??

    Answer: The strategy in the gas production sector for oil companies today is determined by the possibility of its sale. For Surgutneftegaz, it is largely determined by the ability to supply gas for the needs of Tyumenenergo. Today, in total, this is about 14 billion cubic meters of gas per year. Surgutneftegaz has created its own system of gas pipelines, compressor stations, a kind of “mini-Gazprom”. The percentage of gas utilization in the company is the highest in the industry - 95.8 percent.

    As of today, Surgutneftegas is unable to connect to the Urengoy-Chelyabinsk main gas pipeline due to its congestion. Gazprom has identified a connection point for Surgutneftegaz in the Urengoy region, which requires the laying of a new gas pipeline. But without access to gas exports, this proposal is still unprofitable according to calculations. Therefore, due to restrictions on gas sales, the company sees no need to increase gas production.

    As for the energy component, we have chosen the most economically and environmentally efficient way... When developing new deposits, the company comes to full power supply of its own. That is, gas turbine power plants are being built, and associated gas is utilized locally as fuel, thereby ensuring the generation of electricity for the needs of oil production. Moreover, now the company's strategy is to advance construction of energy facilities at the fields, that is, by the start of production, we provide the facility with our own electricity. The payback period for mini-power plants is up to 2 years, which significantly increases the efficiency of this business. In addition, the reliability of power supply during oil production increases, since there is power supply from both internal and external sources nutrition. Last year, Surgutneftegaz built 5 gas turbine stations, this year the company purchased equipment for another 6 stations.

    Already in 2007, these capacities will allow us to meet 25% of the company's total electricity demand.

    If a law is nevertheless adopted on the procedure for admitting independent producers to Gazprom's gas transmission system, then Surgutneftegaz has great potential for increasing gas production. In this case, the company can increase production to 30 billion cubic meters of gas per year, that is, we can talk about a 2-fold increase in production volumes.

    Question: " Surgutneftegaz ”started work in Yakutia, how is business developing in this region? How is the negotiation process with Yukos progressing on the Sakhaneftegaz property complex? What is your strategy for developing new regions?

    Answer: As for our work in Yakutia, then for last year Surgutneftegaz has done much more in this region than it has done there in the previous 7-10 years. A large amount of seismic research has been carried out, exploration and production wells are being drilled, we have brought there a large amount of machinery, equipment, transport, and equipped a production base in the village of Vitim. Work is underway to design a pipeline from Talakan to Ust-Kut (so far this is a preliminary point). At the end of May, a project for the development of the Talakan field will be ready. In general, taking into account the bonus, we invested about $ 550 million in this project. The issue of buying the property complex from Sakhaneftegaz has not yet been resolved due to legal difficulties - we have no one to resolve these issues with.

    By the end of 2008, we plan to complete the construction of an oil pipeline from the Talakanskoye field to Ust-Kut. By this time, all technical capacities will be ready for the commercial development of the Talakan field, where at the first stage we plan to produce about 4 million tons per year, with a further increase to 6 million tons per year. In addition, the company expects to discover new fields in Yakutia, in any case, seismic works in our license areas (Kedrovy, Khoronokhsky, Peleduisky) are giving encouraging results. Considering the capacity of the planned pipeline of 26 million tons, which we intend to build independently, we believe that other companies, in particular, Verkhnechonskneftegaz, can use the pumping capacities. Export destinations for oil from the Talakan field can be the port of Nakhodka and China / via Zabaikalsk /.

    However, in new regions it is necessary to consolidate efforts and create consortia, since the creation of infrastructure requires significant costs.

    In general, the development of new territories, from geological exploration to oil production, largely depends on state policy. Today the current taxation system does not allow companies to reach the threshold of profitability when developing new fields. What remains for the company even at a price of $ 300-320 per ton? Export duty - $ 130, MET - $ 63, transportation costs, namely, the railway tariff, for example, Ust-Kut - Nakhodka / Zabaikalsk /, - $ 100. $ 27 remains, but from them you still need to deduct production costs, tax on property, etc. With a simple, figuratively speaking, "peasant account", it becomes clear that the current rules of the game in new regions do not work, here a different approach to state level... First of all, this concerns the creation of infrastructure / roads, pipelines, electric power facilities /, which always precedes the industrial development of territories. But we must not forget that the creation of such a powerful infrastructure complex is also of national importance for the development of uninhabited regions of Russia. At the same time, business will have to deal with social issues.

    How can this problem be solved? In my opinion, one of the tools may be the mechanism for differentiating the mineral extraction tax. In particular, differentiation allows transport costs to be taken into account. Transportation for export from Tatarstan is one thing, and quite another from Western Siberia, and even more so from Eastern Siberia. For an oil worker, in principle, it does not matter whether these are fiscal withdrawals through transportation costs, or whether these are tax deductions. Therefore, the state must clearly formulate its transport tariff policy... According to our calculations, the tariff for transportation from Eastern Siberia should not exceed the level of $ 30 per ton, otherwise it will lead to losses for subsoil users. At the same time, so far the proposed railway tariff reaches $ 100, and as for the pipeline system, the figure of $ 47 has been announced there, and this does not include transshipment in the port. Under these conditions, oil companies have no incentive to develop new regions and, above all, Eastern Siberia.

    Nevertheless, beyond the threshold of 2020, oil production centers, regardless of anyone's desires, should move from Western Siberia to new regions - to the East and to Timan-Pechora. At the current level of production and, based on the proven reserves of Western Siberia, in 15 years more than 75% of the 6 billion tons of the region's reserves will be extracted, which will naturally move production to new territories, and we must be ready to address this problem. Otherwise, Russia will have to become an oil importer.

    In general, Surgutneftegaz is gradually moving into new regions. This year we are completing seismic surveys at 3 sites in Timan-Pechora, and if our reserves projections are confirmed, we will start drilling exploratory wells. In the future, of course, we will take part in auctions on the territory of the Timan-Pechora province. The development of Timan-Pechora poses one more task for oil companies - maintaining the quality of oil. It is no secret that Timano-Pechora oil is inferior in quality to Siberian oil, therefore, during its transportation, it is necessary to solve the problem of maintaining a quality bank. Otherwise, not only producers in Western Siberia will lose, but also the state as a whole, since a decrease in quality will lead to a decrease in prices on foreign markets and, as a consequence, to a decrease in state revenues. Construction of an oil pipeline from Western Siberia to Murmansk / Indiga / will solve this problem. In addition, it will create a transport reserve for the Russian export capacities. It is no secret that the pipeline system, in particular the Druzhba oil pipeline, built back in the 60s, needs technical renovation. In this sense, the oil pipeline to Murmansk will reduce the risks in fulfilling export obligations and will be a kind of reserve for Druzhba. The construction plans for the first stage of the Kharyaga-Indiga section are absolutely correct, since this, at least, will allow solving not only the transport problem in Timan-Pechora, but also the problem of maintaining the quality of oil in Russia as a whole.

    Question: Unlike other companies, Surgutneftegaz has never used the services of western service contractors. In your opinion, is this an economically sound approach?

    Answer: The principle of Surgutneftegaz's work with Western service companies differs from those that govern many Russian companies. We follow the path of purchasing software and technical means, equipment from Western companies, if necessary, we involve supervisors at the implementation stage. In this regard, we work closely with firms Baker Hughes, Shlumberger, Hollyburton. Contracts with Baker Hughes, for example, amount to about $ 120-130 million annually.

    Our specialists undergo training in Western companies - every year we send 50-60 people for training.

    Technique, equipment, software and knowledge gained by the personnel allow us to successfully solve all the tasks in the field of field modeling, geological exploration, enhanced oil recovery, etc.

    The cost of performing various service operations - hydraulic fracturing, sidetracking, continuous pipe operations - is 4-5 times lower in our country than in western countries. service companies... In addition, in terms of the volume of service operations, the level of technical equipment - hydraulic fracturing fleets, installations with a continuous pipe, etc. - we are ahead of many western service companies today. Therefore, we believe that there is no point in attracting Western contractors for the entire scope of work.

    In addition, during the operation of foreign machinery and equipment, we are looking for the possibility of manufacturing analogs at domestic factories. We have developed an import substitution program, which is being successfully implemented jointly with defense industry enterprises, scientific and technical centers, and machine-building plants. The economic efficiency of the implementation of this program in 2004 amounted to 364 million rubles.

    Question: The problem of improving the quality of petroleum products is becoming more and more important for oil companies. Reaching a new level of quality in oil refining is a necessary component to increase the efficiency of the business of oil holdings. What are the prospects for Surgutneftegaz in this direction?

    Answer: In my opinion, today's problems in oil refining are rooted in the distant past. The energy development strategy, focused first on the consumption of coal, and then fuel oil, has led to the fact that Russian refineries are largely for a long time focused on the production of dark petroleum products. Now market conditions dictate to us the need to transfer oil refineries to new technological processes, to increase the depth of oil refining.

    In 2008, Surgutneftegaz plans to commission a deep oil refining complex at Kirishinefteorgsintez, which will process up to 4.8 million tons of fuel oil per year. The launch of hydrocracking and then catcracking will increase the processing depth to 93 percent. This is very important, given the export orientation of our plant, geographically and historically since Soviet times.

    In addition, increasing environmental requirements dictate the need for technical re-equipment of Russian refineries. Moreover, this applies to the plant in Kirishi, which is located in close proximity to the largest metropolis - St. Petersburg. In this sense, the transition to the production of petroleum products that meet European standards is a requirement of the time, and all companies will undoubtedly have to deal with the issues of refinery modernization.

    At the same time, the introduction of new technologies for the transition to the production of petroleum products of European quality standards also requires a special state policy that would create conditions that would stimulate companies to increase the depth of refining at their refineries and to produce petroleum products with high consumer and environmental properties. This will make it possible to qualitatively change the structure of exports and move from the prevailing sale of crude oil to the sale of a basket of petroleum products.

    Today, companies have no incentives for a large-scale transition to high-quality fuel. For example, Surgutneftegaz is investing about $ 2 billion in the construction of a hydrocracking complex. In the conditions when the state reduces duties on fuel oil and raises them on diesel fuel, it is difficult to talk about the effectiveness of such investments. The company has already several times applied to the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade with a request to consider the possibility of providing an "investment vacation" for the payback period of investments in projects for the production of petroleum products that meet European standards.

    In general, in order to ensure a decrease in prices for petroleum products within the country, which is so much talked about today, it is necessary to stimulate the loading of refineries. The more oil is processed domestically, the more oil products will enter the domestic market, given the technical restrictions on exports. Thus, it will be possible to stimulate the excess of supply over demand, which will lead to lower prices.

    Today, the rise in prices for petroleum products in the domestic market is largely predetermined by the fiscal policy - MET and excise tax, as well as the rise in tariffs and prices for metal products. But more than 82% of the material resources consumed by oil companies are in one form or another metallurgical products, the prices of which have recently doubled. Ultimately, all this hits the consumer's pocket and spins the inflation flywheel.

    Question: How is Surgutneftegaz's export policy structured?

    Answer: Surgutneftegaz's export policy is based, as a rule, on annual contracts. Partners are selected on a tender basis. Now we have direct contracts with the Norwegian Statoil, Finnish Neste, French Total, Anglo-Dutch Shell, British BP.

    In addition to annual contracts for the supply of oil to European refineries, Surgutneftegaz also holds monthly tenders for the remaining export volumes under framework contracts with trading companies.

    Today, not without the efforts of Surgutneftegaz, which is the largest exporter in Druzhba, Russian companies have succeeded in making the export through the pipe one of the most efficient, and comparable to the efficiency of export through Novorossiysk.

    Question: At present, the criteria for differentiation in calculating the mineral extraction tax are widely discussed. A number of heads of oil companies expressed the opinion that it is impossible to create an objective formula for differentiation in the Russian Federation. In your opinion, is it possible to define these criteria, and if so, what parameters should form the basis of differentiation?

    Is Surgutneftegaz satisfied new concept Law "On Subsoil"? What, in your opinion, are the positive and negative aspects of the new concept?

    Answer: Differentiation of mineral extraction tax in Russia should be introduced as soon as possible, otherwise a drop in oil production in the Russian Federation cannot be ruled out. In my opinion, the main differentiation criteria should be mining and geological conditions, the state of field development. At the same time, it is necessary, first of all, to stimulate oil production at the initial stage of field development, providing tax holidays for at least 5 years for the period of return on investment. In addition, there should be a special tax regime for the fields of the last stage of development, when it is necessary to apply secondary and tertiary oil recovery methods. It is very important for the state that these fields have a maximum oil recovery factor, so that the reserves are extracted and not simply written off. Thus, differentiation should stimulate oil production at the stage of reserves development up to 40% and after 70%.

    The second criterion that should be taken into account in differentiation is the transport component, since the geographical location is also a kind of natural advantage. The closer the deposits are to the center, the higher the coefficient of differentiation should be applied. In my opinion, these are the simplest criteria that can be used and which are easy for the state to control.

    As for the draft law "On Subsoil", the biggest problem is that it is not directly applicable. There are a lot of references in the draft to the decrees of ministries and departments, which is the basis for a bureaucratic rampant. Although there are positive aspects in the law - through licenses, the removal of restrictions on the depth of drilling in the license area.

    In fact, the transition to contractual relations proposed in the new law should simplify the relationship between the subsoil user and the state. At the very least, bureaucratic approval systems, such as land acquisition, should be simplified. However, so far the proposed draft related laws, in particular the Forest Code, imply a multiple increase in approvals. If earlier we collected up to 8 thousand signatures for land allocation, then after adoption the Forest Code in the proposed form will increase the number of approvals to 21 thousand signatures.

    Question: " Surgutneftegaz "has always been conservative in attracting Western borrowed funds. Can the company's credit policy change?

    Answer: Surgutneftegaz does not exclude the possibility of attracting Western investments if the company has large international projects. We are studying the possibility of participating in some foreign projects, in particular, we have proposals from the Iranian government, we are interested in Iraq. If these plans are implemented, we will enter international financial markets so that there are no difficulties with the export of capital.

    Question: Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the need for Russian business to reach a transnational level. As you see the place of Surgutneftegaz in this process? Answer: In principle, Surgutneftegaz may well become a transnational company in the future: the production, scientific and personnel potential of the company leaves no doubt that it can work effectively not only in Russia. Recently, the European Public Commission awarded Surgutneftegas with the European Standard Prize for the development and implementation of systemic programs in the field of industrial ecology, contributing to the achievement of international safety standards for the extraction, transportation and processing of petroleum products. In fact, this award is a certificate of conformity of product quality and management to standards generally accepted in the united Europe. So our confidence is well grounded.

    Drilling and Oil , 12.06.16 , "Hero of Labor. A real statesman "

    General Director of OJSC “Surgutneftegas” V.L. Bogdanov celebrated his 65th birthday on May 28, 2016. Shortly before that, the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, by his decree, conferred on Vladimir Leonidovich the high title of Hero of Labor of Russia and presented the gold star of the Hero.

    How heroes are born

    Vladimir Leonidovich Bogdanov was born on May 28, 1951 in the village of Suerka, Uporovsky District, Tyumen Region. According to the teachers, Volodya was a very diligent student, meticulous in a good sense of the word, who did not leave "blank spots" in mastering certain topics and subjects. I gave preference to exact sciences: physics and mathematics. Great natural inclinations and abilities were accompanied by excellent diligence and perseverance, without which they would hardly have been realized. He actively participated in the social life of the school. Every day he organized a game of football and hockey, then fishing, then a hike for berries or mushrooms. Erudition and friendly attitude towards peers united the youth around him. The early revealed strong leadership qualities made him a Komsomol leader.

    Samotlor was opened in the sixties of the last century. Romance has seized the youth. The supernatural boys also dreamed of the Tyumen North. Volodya became a student at the Tyumen Industrial Institute, having chosen the specialty “Drilling of oil and gas wells”. He studied selflessly. The nickname "Plowman" was assigned to him. After classes I spent a long time in the library. I dug everything myself. Overgrown with knowledge.

    After graduating from the institute in 1973, the young man began his career as a pomboor in the brigade of the renowned drilling foreman G.M. Levin. The position is not high, but all the graduates of the drilling department passed through it. Gennady Mikhailovich recalls the episode: “We scored a direction. It is not safe to be on the rig. Everyone leaves. He stands and looks attentively. He needed to know everything. "

    Volodya became a student at the Tyumen Industrial Institute, having chosen the specialty “Drilling of oil and gas wells”. He studied selflessly. The nickname "Plowman" was assigned to him. After classes I spent a long time in the library. I dug everything myself. Overgrown with knowledge

    In those days, production grew and expanded rapidly. Persistent, enthusiastic, hard-working people were noticed and promoted to new positions. In the period from 1973 to 1976, Vladimir Leonidovich went through the main stages of professional growth - from a pombur, driller, senior engineer of the production and technical department (PTO), deputy head of the technological department to shift manager of the central engineering and technological service in the Nizhnevartovsk drilling department No. 1. at the time there were difficulties with well completion. The department of final works was created in the department. The drillers were sometimes indignant. They need speed, meters of penetration, bonuses, and here is a young principled specialist with his own requirements. Here the qualities of V.L. Bogdanov not only as a knowledgeable specialist, but also as a demanding and uncompromising engineer who requires high Quality works. He worked for wear and tear, especially when the columns were lowered. According to the testimony of relatives, then he was not at home for weeks.

    In 1976 V.L. Bogdanov was transferred to the city of Surgut, to SUBR-2 as a technologist, then he was appointed chief engineer of the department.
    From 1978 to 1980, he worked at the Yuganskneftegaz Production Association as Deputy Head of the Drilling Department, later as Deputy General Director - Head of the Drilling Department. In December 1980 he was again transferred to Surgut, and until February 1983 he was Deputy General Director for the organization of work in the northern regions, Deputy General Director - Head of the Drilling Department of the Surgutneftegaz Production Association.
    1983 - 1984 Vladimir Leonidovich was the Deputy Head of Drilling at Glavtyumenneftegaz in Tyumen.

    In June 1984 Bogdanov was urgently summoned to Moscow and also urgently by order of the Minister of Oil Industry of the USSR N.A. Maltsev at the age of 33 was appointed General Director of the production association "Surgutneftegas" - the largest enterpriseensuring the economic stability of the country

    While preparing this article, I repeated the lines that had just been born to myself:

    Nature has generously rewarded
    His talent and intelligence.
    Life has endowed with grip, intelligence
    Strengthening them with great difficulty.

    Agile and "almost volatile"
    I got used to always be ahead.
    Steel will, mighty mind
    And ... a fiery motor in the chest.

    Such is the portrait of a real hero.

    Surgut hardening

    During the first 10 years of his working career, he traveled through winter roads, along dozens of deposits. I spent the night in cars, in trailers - if there was a place ... Such selfless work could not fail to notice.

    Bogdanov has no ready-made standard cripples in decision-making. He does not think like everyone else, and acts independently - "in Bogdanov style", not looking up to other people's authorities

    In June 1984 Bogdanov was urgently summoned to Moscow and also urgently by order of the Minister of Oil Industry of the USSR N.A. Maltsev, at the age of 33, was appointed general director of the production association Surgutneftegas, the largest enterprise that ensures the country's economic stability.
    Of course, for many, this appointment was completely unexpected. In the USSR, personnel were consistently raised, but such a decision is only a credit of trust from the then general director of the association A.V. Usoltsev and the country as a whole (since the approval of the candidacy took place at different, including the highest levels of power) cannot be named. And V.L. Bogdanov fully justified this trust.

    According to Vagit Alekperov, head of LUKOIL, “Bogdanov was young, active, and energetic. His desire to do it with high quality and to hand over the object faster earned respect from everyone. "

    But sometimes in some difficult situations he makes decisions that are incomprehensible and not obvious to many. And this is surprising at first. Time passes, and it becomes clear to everyone that Bogdanov was right once again

    Congratulating the work collective with the coming 1985, V.L. Bogdanov said: "We are celebrating the New Year among the laggards, but there should be no room for despondency and confusion in our ranks." He set the team up for hard work. But it turned out to be more difficult than any assumptions. Restructuring, economic collapse, deficit of everything. But there was really no confusion. There was work without holidays and days off, every day until late at night. And to her he gave all of himself. In this incredibly difficult time, he did everything to ensure that the workers at the enterprise and their families did not experience interruptions in the supply of foodstuffs, everything necessary to improve passenger rail and air transportation, and to save the staff of specialists as much as possible. A few years later, the political and economic climate changed in the country. There were structural transformations. The transition to market rails required corporatization of companies. The winds of change then destroyed many oil and gas enterprises. Some top managers were unable to protect their enterprises and their chairs from collapse and raider takeover. Bogdanov managed to preserve both the Surgutneftegaz team and his influence on the country's economy in the most difficult times for it.

    Lukoil President Vagit Alekperov says: “I'm sure he is proud of Surgutneftegaz. He is its founder. He created the company in the most difficult period of the early 90s and managed to keep it. Today it is actively developing. This is his brainchild. This is his pride "

    When the production association (PO) "Surgutneftegas" was transformed into an open joint-stock company, V.L. Bogdanov.

    Thanks to competent technical and economic solutions Vladimir Leonidovich raised the bar of the company to the level of world-class leading enterprises. The actions of the general were non-standard, but carefully thought out and therefore effective. Everyone is working on the results of geological exploration dating back to Soviet times - they abandoned exploration drilling. Surgutneftegaz has its own point of view on this: exploration drilling has never been in the corral here. Or take taxes, for example. Everyone turned inside out in order to minimize costs or even get away from the tax burden. Surgutneftegaz pays in good faith and strictly according to the law: according to analysts, the largest deductions from the enterprise headed by V.L. Bogdanov. Gas utilization is especially typical for the Surgutyan collective. The country's leadership gives strict targets, sets deadlines to bring associated gas utilization to 95 percent. And in "Surgutneftegaz" this level has long been overcome and keep the figure at around 99 percent.

    Surgutneftegaz fundamentally does not participate in offshore business operations. “We have never used transfer schemes,” V.L. Bogdanova Russian Forbes

    Bogdanov has no ready-made standard cripples in decision-making. He does not think like everyone else, and acts independently - “in Bogdanov style”, not being equal to fashion trends. As a result, while a number of territories groan from the lack of opportunities to do something for their own citizens (because industrial enterprises do not want or cannot fill regional budgets), the well-being of the Surgut region, Surgut, Yugra, where the main production facilities of the company are based, normal. And this is thanks to Surgutneftegaz and directly to its General Director, Vladimir Leonidovich Bogdanov. We are not afraid of such a high generalization, partly even the country's budget depends on this successful oil company ...

    Form style

    Corporate management style, managerial wisdom and foresight are the qualities of an effective leader. But sometimes in some difficult situations he makes decisions that are incomprehensible and not obvious to many. And this is surprising at first. Time passes, and it becomes clear to everyone that Bogdanov was right once again. This was the case with his persistent pushing for the idea of \u200b\u200bcreating and developing well workover services. Subsequently, the "capitalists" were able to handle the most modern technologies, including "coiled tubing" and sidetracking. Effective work with the well stock helped to maintain production, and the commissioning of new wells allowed to increase it. It became obvious how correctly V.L. Bogdanov development strategy for the years ahead.

    The current round date of Vladimir Leonidovich is his 65th birthday, special - it is consecrated by the light of the golden star of the Hero

    Everyone remembers the massive trend towards the withdrawal from the leading oil and gas companies of service services, drilling crews and even entire drilling departments as non-core assets. Only Bogdanov resisted the temptation to follow the beaten path. Vladimir Leonidovich strove at all costs to keep the drillers, rig operators, and grinders as part of Surgutneftegaz. Sometimes unpopular measures taken on time also worked: it was necessary to restrain unreasonable growth of salaries in order to invest the saved funds in production. And this step made it possible to ensure both a decent salary and an increase in the well-being of the company's team in the future.

    He objected to the once fashionable fad of joint ventures (JVs) as a panacea for all ills. V.L. Bogdanov said: “Why give work to foreign workers if ours do it with greater efficiency? The main thing is to buy advanced equipment and technologies and learn how to work with them. "

    And this eloquently testifies to managerial talent, the ability to choose the only correct solution from many others.

    Obviously, the manager has every reason to be happy with the job. Lukoil President Vagit Alekperov says about it this way: “I am sure he is proud of Surgutneftegaz. He is its founder. He created the company in the most difficult period of the early 90s and managed to keep it. Today it is actively developing. This is his brainchild. This is his pride. "

    The name "Surgutneftegas" is identified with such concepts as stability, financial stability, reliable partnership

    Surgutneftegaz has invested over 100 billion rubles in the creation of infrastructure in Eastern Siberia.

    Forward looking

    In 1990 V.L. Bogdanov received a second higher education, graduating from the Academy of National Economy under the Council of Ministers of the USSR (now - the Russian Academy of National Economy and public service under the President of the Russian Federation - RANH and GS). He is a doctor of economic sciences, a full member of a number of academies: mining sciences, natural sciences, technological sciences. He has published several books, many articles in industry publications dedicated to improving the management system of the fuel and energy complex of Russia, modern drilling and oil production technologies, and other topics.

    With the hope of influencing the adoption of laws necessary for the country's economy and his region, Vladimir Leonidovich began to be elected to local and federal authorities: 1985 - 1993 - deputy of the Tyumen Regional Council of People's Deputies, 1990 - 1993 - deputy of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, since 1994 deputy of the Duma of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug ... Since 2012 V.L. Bogdanov is a member of the commission on strategic development of the fuel and energy complex and environmental safety, headed by the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin.

    Among the examples of Vladimir Leonidovich's creative talent is the development of the Talakan deposit. What was created there in the middle of the taiga in just one decade, boggles the imagination of even experienced oilmen. Surgutneftegaz has invested more than 100 billion rubles in the creation of infrastructure in Eastern Siberia. The funds were used not only for production needs - exploration and production drilling, but also for the construction of an airport (2012), a major highway 117 km (2011), bridges, power lines, pipelines, a complex for the production of bitumen, a modern river a berth, a commodity park, a gas piston power plant, production service bases, as well as social facilities.

    This year in Tyumen it is planned to commission the second core storage of OJSC “Surgutneftegas” with a design capacity of up to 120 thousand m. The first, with a capacity of up to 100 thousand m, was built in 2003.

    The present state approach is shown by V.L. Bogdanov to the procurement strategy. Perhaps no other oil and gas company supports the domestic industry and its producer as much as Surgutneftegaz does. He orders large deliveries of Russian drilling rigs, top drives, rock cutting tools, well completion equipment, coring, production pumps and much more.

    The statesman Bogdanov never created any dummy structures in the West. Surgut-Neftegaz is fundamentally not involved in offshore business operations. “We have never used transfer schemes,” V.L. Bogdanov Russian Forbes.

    Realizing that the task of the state is to protect and replenish the treasury, V.L. Bogdanov is categorically against undeserved benefits and state support. In his opinion, competition should be fair, and the conditions for all companies should be the same “We have never asked the state for anything, except for normal laws, and we do not intend to ask or bargain for special conditions for ourselves in the future,” the head states responsibly. Surgutneftegaz ".

    In a multitasking environment

    The company seeks to expand the geography of its activities. In one of his interviews, Vladimir Leonidovich said that Surgutneftegaz has ceased to be a mono-regional company focused on one oil production center - Western Siberia. “The geography of our business has gone beyond the boundaries of the traditional West Siberian region, and we can safely talk about three centers of oil production, including the East Siberian and Nenets,” he said.

    Bogdanov has no ready-made standard cripples in decision-making. He does not think like everyone else, and acts independently - "in Bogdanov style", not being equal to fashion trends

    Thanks to competent technical and economic solutions, Vladimir Leonidovich raised the company's bar to the level of advanced world-class enterprises

    The well-being of the Surgut region, Surgut, Yugra, where the main production facilities of the company are based, is managed to maintain normal thanks to Surgutneftegaz

    OJSC "Surgutneftegas" painstakingly works on training and retraining of personnel. The company is engaged in the selection of applicants for training in institutions of secondary vocational or higher education. Students sent to study at OJSC "Surgutneftegas" are guaranteed partial payment for successful training, internship and subsequent employment in structural units OJSC "Surgutneftegas".

    The basic university for training specialists with higher education is the Tyumen State Oil and Gas University - TyumGNGU (after the merger with the Tyumen State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, the new name of the educational institution is the Tyumen Industrial University). In 2015, it had about five hundred students in the direction of the community - more than from any other oil and gas company. An example for students is V.L. Bogdanov, who graduated from this university more than 40 years ago and made himself, becoming a real master, a high professional. The poet Robert Rozhdestvensky wrote about such people:

    Time
    moves by masters
    and hopes
    on the masters!
    And they stand
    like a fortress
    right
    of their labor.

    And they cannot do otherwise.
    And required
    urgently!
    hurry!
    everywhere!
    always!

    Today Surgutneftegaz is a recognized leader in the industry in the introduction of new equipment and new technologies, in the amount of investment in research and development, in terms of production culture. The name “Surgutneftegas” is associated with such concepts as stability, financial stability, and reliable partnership.

    "By profession - a driller"

    Vladimir Leonidovich says about himself: "I am a driller by profession." Perhaps that is why the general treats this direction with special attention. Apparently, this is why Surgutneftegaz is the undisputed leader in the country in terms of production and exploration drilling. This makes it possible not only to maintain the current level, but also to increase production, not to “eat through” but to increase the growth of hydrocarbon reserves.

    V.L. Bogdanov does a lot for the social sphere: those employed at Surgutneftegaz should have a decent salary, good living conditions for a comfortable life, modern schools, kindergartens, nurseries - so that people are confident in the future. The company employs sanatoriums, dispensaries for recreation and recovery of the health of employees, summer camps for children. The company has unparalleled benefits in modern Russia for employees and their families. Therefore, there is no end to those wishing to work at Surgutneftegaz.

    For his contribution to the development and formation of the oil industry in Russia V.L. Bogdanov was awarded the honorary titles: "Honored Worker of the Oil and Gas Industry of the Russian Federation" (1993), "Honorary Worker of the Oil and Gas Complex" (1999), "Honored Worker of the Oil and Gas Industry of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug" (2000).

    He is an Honorary Citizen of Surgut (1997), Surgut region (1998), Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug (1999). Vladimir Leonidovich has a large number of state and public awards: the Order of the Badge of Honor (1981), the Red Banner of Labor (1986), the Order of Merit to the Fatherland IV, III and II degrees (1997, 2001, 2006), the Order of Honor ( 2010), medal “For the exploration of mineral resources and the development of the oil and gas complex of Western Siberia” (1984), Certificate of Honor of the President of the Russian Federation (2011), Commendation of the President of the Russian Federation (2012, 2007) Order of the Polar Star (Yakutia, 2008) Order of Honor ( Belarus, 2001). And one more was added to them - very high and the most honorable: on April 21, 2016 by the decree of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Leonidovich Bogdanov was awarded the high title of Hero of Labor of the Russian Federation. This is the highest state award. It is awarded for special labor services to the state and people associated with the achievement of outstanding results in the state, public and economic activityaimed at ensuring the well-being and prosperity of Russia.

    After graduating from the institute V.L. Bogdanov began his career as a pomboor in the brigade of the renowned drilling foreman, Hero of Socialist Labor G.M. Levin

    The current round date of Vladimir Leonidovich is his 65th birthday, special - it is consecrated by the light of the golden star of the Hero. Truly a person who, without sparing himself, selflessly works, ignoring sometimes weekends and vacations, for the good of the company and the country, achieving outstanding results, fully deserves this highest award. He is not only a role model for young people.

    Work honestly, conscientiously, and fame and recognition will find you.
