Rosneft Hosts Corporate Environmental Race in Moscow

29 July 2024

Rosneft organised an environmental event in Moscow's Fili Park - a plogging race where employees cleaned up litter.

The event was attended by more than 70 of the Company's employees and their family members. The eco-volunteers covered a distance of more than 7 kilometres and collected almost 250 kg of litter.

Preservation of the environment for future generations is an integral part of Rosneft's social policy. The Company promotes a culture of healthy living and supports professional and amateur sport. Plogging is an international environmental movement in which participants combine jogging with litter picking. As well as helping to improve the environment, the event brings people together, giving them a chance to spend time outdoors and recharge their batteries.

Volunteering has become an important part of Rosneft's corporate culture in recent years. As part of the Platform of Good Deeds corporate programme, approximately 800 different actions were organised in the 6 months of 2024, in which more than 50 thousand employees of the Company participated.

Volunteering projects by several of the Company's subsidiaries were recognised by regional and federal authorities. For example, the Syzran refinery received the Ecobalance Public Award for its contribution to the development of corporate volunteering and environmental protection in the Samara Region, reforestation and greening of the city of Syzran. SamaraNIPIneft won first place in two categories of the Russian Organisation of High Social Efficiency national competition: «for development of human resources potential in non-production organisations» and «for support of employees with large families and their children in organisations». The Kuibyshev Refinery was also named a winner of the Kommersant-Volga competition in the Environmental Education category.

In the first half of the year the Platform of Good Deeds corporate volunteering programme, 142 projects were dedicated to supporting children and 65 to helping veterans. Joint activities with the Movement of Firsts, including education and sports projects, have been successfully implemented. Environmental initiatives were the most widespread, with more than 20,000 employees and their family members taking part.

These include the annual Green Spring national campaign, during which Kharampurneftegaz employees cleaned up Izyskateley Square in Tyumen. Sakhalinmorneftegaz-Shelf staff took part in the Water of Russia national campaign and cleaned a two-kilometre stretch of the coast, collecting 500 kg of rubbish. Eco-volunteers also cleaned up the walking area of the Sakhalin Botanical Garden.
