Special report:
Liquefied Natural Gas Outlook: Expectations and Reality
World market has shown interest to liquefied gas. Russia has so far been aside of it. However, producers have announced several large LNG projects. The new study will help investigate this delicate subject and understand what is in store for LNG production and export in the nearest years.Analytical series “The Fuel and Energy Complex of Russia”:
State System of Administrating the Oil and Gas Sector
Dmitry Medvedev has passed the equator of his first presidential term. Considering the past two years one can already make conclusions about the work of the state system regulating the oil and gas sector launched in 2008. Its designer is certainly Vladimir Putin, who remains the main figure in the Russian economy and politics despite all speculations by experts. Yet, the new mechanism has some serious differences from what we observed during the eight years of Putin’s tenure.Gas Pipeline Wars in Europe and Central Asia
Scared by the concept of turning Russia (the main gas supplier) into an energy superpower Europe declared the course aimed at diversifying supplies at any cost. Meanwhile, both players have missed sharp strengthening of China’s positions in Central Asia, which makes this geopolitical solitaire even more confusing and intriguing.Anti-Crisis Policy in the Oil and Gas Sector And Its Consequences
Vladimir Putin is facing a necessity to decide on the role the oil and gas industry should play. The selection of anti-crisis measures in the sector depends on that. Different roles Vladimir Putin plays result in some chaos in managing the sector. In particular, on one side, he deals quite willingly with Gazprom’s development. But on the other side, the company is interested in raising domestic gas prices by ensuring equal profitability of exports and supplies to the domestic market. However, this will be a serious blow to the Russian industry Putin is responsible for being the prime minister.Analytical series “The Political compass”:
Political power in Russia after presidential election
The new report analyzes the situation which followed «reformatting» of the political system in Russia within the «Successor» operation. Currently the new management structure and inter-elite situation have been formed aggressively in view of the existing model of «Putin-Medvedev» duumvirate.State Corporations in the Russian Economy
The new study analyses state corporations that many consider a new long-term direction of Russian economy development. Currently, these corporations are becoming nearly the main mechanism for Russian elite to convert and cash out political power. Therefore it is important to understand affiliation of different state corporations with dominating political players, their role in the 2008 election campaign and place in the next executive power configuration that we will see completed by spring-summer 2008. It is also interesting to analyze possible ways the state corporations may transform into other forms of property in the nearest and medium-term future.Political Results of 2007: Russia on the Eve of Power Shuffle
The new study analyzes political and socio-economic state of Russia after Duma election on December 2 2007 and possible consequences of power shuffle in March-May 2008.
