Gazprom Corporation is among the largest players in the Russian and global economy. How is the corporate governance structure organized? In which cities does Gazprom operate?
General information about the company
Before considering what constitutes the organizational structure of Gazprom, we will study the basic information about the company.
Gazprom is traditionally viewed as a global energy corporation. Its main areas of activity:
Mineral exploration;
Fuel extraction;
Gas transportation;
Processing and sale of fuel.
In addition, the corporation also produces and sells heat and electricity. Gazprom has at its disposal the richest natural gas reserves in the world. The value of the corresponding reserves is about 18% of the world and 72% of the Russian. In turn, if we talk about that, the corporation accounts for about 14% of its global volumes and 14% of Russian ones.
The company is actively developing projects in vast territories - in Yamal, Arctic shelf Russia, Siberia, the Far East. Settlements, the economy of which is largely based on the facilities owned by Gazprom - Urengoy, Astrakhan, Nadym, and many others. Actually, it can be one of the city-forming in these settlements.
Gazprom has a developed transport and industrial infrastructure at its disposal. The company is also actively developing processing industries. Gazprom's capabilities make it possible to almost completely satisfy the domestic demand of the Russian economy for natural gas.
In addition, Gazprom has branches abroad. The activities of these structures are also largely related to the exploration and production of fuel. The corporation supplies gas to both the Russian and foreign markets.
The corporation is one of the key players in the European fuel market. Gazprom's largest projects for the development of fields abroad are being implemented in Venezuela, India, and Algeria. Managers of the Russian corporation actively interact with colleagues on a wide range of issues: investment, implementation of joint projects, exchange of experience in the application of technologies for the extraction and delivery of fuel.
In Russia, Gazprom owns the Unified Gas Supply System. Its total length exceeds 168 thousand km. In fact, the company is the only manufacturer in the Russian Federation, as well as an exporter liquefied gas.
Gazprom was founded as a public company in 1989. Its turnover during the active periods of capitalization was fixed at about 3.9 trillion rubles.
The city in which the head office of Gazprom is located is Moscow. The largest structures of the corporation are also located in St. Petersburg. It is known that it is planned to move the main office of Gazprom to the Northern capital in 2018.
history of the company
It will be useful to get acquainted with the main facts from the history of the company's development.
In the middle of the 20th century, a number of large gas fields were discovered by Soviet specialists in Siberia, the Urals, and the Volga region. They began to be quickly mastered, and, as a result, in the 1980s, the USSR became one of the largest countries in the world in the field of gas production.
In 1965, the Ministry of the Gas Industry was established in the USSR. He was in charge of mineral exploration, fuel extraction, its delivery and sale to consumers. In August 1989, this department was transformed into an economic entity - the Gazprom concern.
In 1993, it was renamed RAO Gazprom. The ownership structure of a corporation has changed significantly over time. Thus, in the 1990s, a significant part of the corporation's shares were sold as part of the privatization mechanism. By 2004, the state in Gazprom owned 38.7% of the shares. Besides, Russian Federation held a majority on the board of directors of the company. Subsequently, the state's share was increased to more than 50%.
In 2000, the corporation actively increased its turnover. In 2008, in terms of capitalization, it was among the top 3 largest global businesses. In 2009, Gazprom launched the first liquefied natural gas plant in Russia. The European direction of business was actively developing. Thus, in 2012 the company launched the second branch of the Nord Stream pipeline. Soon, Gazprom officially launched production at one of the largest gas fields, Bovanenkovskoye.
In May 2014, Gazprom and the Chinese corporation CNPC signed a major contract for gas supplies to China. The contract price was $400 billion. The agreement is for 30 years.
Company owners
Who is the owner of Gazprom? The ownership structure of a corporation has the following features.
The main shareholder of the corporation is the Federal Property Management Agency, which in this case is represented by the state. This department - in fact, the country - owns 38.373% of Gazprom's shares. The next largest shareholder of the corporation is The Bank of New York Mellon. He owns 26.955% of the corporation's securities. Rosneftegaz owns a 10.74% stake in Gazprom. Rosgazifikatsiya has a 0.889% stake in the gas corporation's capital structure. Other persons own 23.043% of the company's shares.
One way or another, the state owns 50% plus 1 share of Gazprom Corporation. The management structure of the company is as follows.
Corporation Management: General Meeting of Shareholders
The supreme governing body of the company is the General Meeting of Shareholders. Its formation is carried out annually. In addition, extraordinary General Meetings are possible. Owners of ordinary shares have the right to vote.
All holders of the relevant type of securities, independently or through a representative, may exercise the right to participate in the General Meeting. An event of the corresponding type is recognized as eligible if the attendance of shareholders is ensured, who collectively have more than half of the votes.
The competence of the general meeting is represented, in particular:
Amending the provisions of the company's Articles of Association;
The definition of the auditor;
income distribution;
Election of members of the Board of Directors, as well as the Audit Commission;
Making decisions on changing the structure of the company's management;
Making decisions on changing the size of the authorized capital of Gazprom.
General management of the corporation is carried out by the Board of Directors. It will be useful to study its features.
The activities of the Corporation's Board of Directors are regulated by a separate Regulation. The considered internal corporate structure of the Gazprom company resolves business development issues if they are not within the competence of the higher corporate management body - the General Meeting. At the same time, among the relevant competencies is the election of members of the Board of Directors. This procedure is carried out annually.
The Chairman of the Board of Directors of Gazprom is in charge of the company's management structure under consideration. The main competencies of the relevant body:
Approval of the corporate budget for the year;
Development of investment programs;
Making decisions on the formation of general meetings;
Legal issues.
Audit Commission of Gazprom
There is another important structure that is part of the management structure of the Gazprom corporation. We are talking about the Audit Commission. It is accountable to the General Assembly and is an elected body. The work of the Audit Commission of the company is also regulated by a separate Regulation.
In addition, the relevant structure of Gazprom is guided in its activities by the legislation of the Russian Federation, the Company's Charter, as well as decisions of the General Meeting. The main tasks that this structure solves:
Control over the formation of reports and other information reflecting the indicators of the company's economic development, as well as characterizing its property status;
Control over the compliance of accounting methods used in the corporation with the provisions of Russian legislation;
Ensuring the timeliness of reporting by the corporation to interested structures;
Preparation of proposals aimed at improving the efficiency of the disposal of the corporation's assets, as well as the implementation of other areas of financial and economic activities of companies;
Preparation of proposals to reduce economic risks, optimize internal control mechanisms in the corporation.
This is how one of the largest companies in the world works, this is how its management is organized. In terms of its structure, Gazprom is generally organized like other corporations of the same size. But given the importance of the tasks that the company solves in the course of its activities, the organization of business management in this case requires the use of the most effective approaches in management.
De jure, the head of Gazprom - the chairman of the company's Board of Directors, as well as his subordinates solve difficult tasks to bring the corporation's management system in line with this criterion.
Company branches
In the course of building the Gazprom management model, its branches were transformed into independent legal entities. They began to function as regional corporations in the gas sector. Each branch of Gazprom is thus de jure independent of the main company, although, of course, it develops in the context of the strategic priorities developed by the head office of the corporation.
Migration of management to the Northern capital
The management of the largest Russian gas corporation is characterized by a very remarkable trend - the steady migration of Gazprom's internal corporate structures to the Northern capital. We already know that the city where the main office of the Gazprom corporation is located is Moscow. But now St. Petersburg has every chance of becoming a key city in Russia in terms of brand presence at various levels of legal relations. With what it can be connected? What attracts such a corporation as Gazprom, St. Petersburg?
First of all, of course, it is worth noting that the northern capital of Russia is a wonderful city in itself, and this circumstance alone can become a factor in the desire of the country's leading managers to work there. According to experts, the largest Russian gas corporation now occupies about 20% of St. Petersburg offices in the luxury segment.
By 2018 in northern capital planned to house the company's headquarters. It is assumed that the new head office of Gazprom will be located in the Lakhta Center building, which is currently being built in the Primorsky district of St. Petersburg. The building will be represented by a skyscraper, as well as an office complex. The total area of the facility will be about 400 thousand square meters. meters.
At what address in the Northern capital will the main office of Gazprom be located? The address of the Lakhta Center is Lakhtinsky Prospekt, 2, bldg. 3. The construction of the structure began in 2013. It is expected that the skyscraper of the center will be the highest among the buildings in Russia and Europe. In particular, it will be 88 meters higher than the Federation Tower, which is located in the Moscow City office complex.
Office address
Actually, where is the headquarters of the Gazprom company now located? The address of the current head office of the corporation: Moscow, st. Nametkina, 16. The building is thus located in the South-West of the Russian capital. It is possible that after Gazprom moves (St. Petersburg and Lakhta Center are still in a state of expectation of this), competent structures involved in the management of the company will nevertheless continue to work in the building of the current headquarters of the corporation .
Gazprom's subsidiaries and departments operate in St. Petersburg.
