Overview

"Rosneft (Russian: Росне́фть, IPA: [rɐˈsʲnʲefʲtʲ]) is an integrated oil and gas company majority owned by the Government of Russia. It traces its roots back to the companies, which are now affiliated with Rosneft, which first appeared in the late 19th century. It was established in April 1993 as a unitary enterprise with assets previously held by Rosneftegaz, the successor to the Soviet Union's Ministry of Oil and Gas. During the early 1990s almost all Russian oil companies and refineries were extracted from Rosneft to form ten integrated companies. Later their number was halved as a result of acquisitions. On 29 September 1995, an Order of the Government of Russia №971 transformed Rosneft into an open joint stock company."
