Transneft takes part in the Russian Energy Week International Forum

October 12, 2023

Andrey Badalov, Vice President of Transneft, speaking at the panel discussion ‘Countering New Threats to the Fuel and Energy Sector: Legislation and Practice’, shared his vision of potential risks and options for overcoming them.

Import substitution and ensuring technological independence is an unconditional priority for the development of the energy sector. “Transneft is an active participant of the Industrial Competence Centre established at the state level, which considers the company’s product – the ‘Evolution. SCADA’ platform is among the most significant digital projects. The platform has already been included in the Russian Software Register. In addition, the company has implemented its own Unified Laboratory Information System (ULIS), which has no competitors in the market and automates the activities of oil and petroleum product quality control laboratories. As part of the import substitution programme, associations of major consumers of IT products are also working, and issues related to the creation of ‘trusted software banks’ are being resolved.”

“The companies themselves, including Transneft, optimize the stack of information technologies used and create their own IT solutions to solve some tasks. At the same time, it is very important to immediately implement processes of secure development, code verification of own and purchased products,” said Andrey Badalov.

Transneft’s display is open at the REW 2023 venue. Visitors, in particular, can familiarize themselves with the results of the company’s digital transformation, IT solutions to ensure high functionality of production processes and technological independence. The largest manufacturers present high-tech products and equipment in the Transneft system: TOMZEL, Transneft-Verkhnyaya Volga, Ural Dynamic Machines, and Transneft-Syntez.
