ALEXEY MILLERChairman.of.the.Board.of.DirectorsOJSC.Gazprom.Neft

The.Company.continues.to.implement.large.projects.that.will.become.a.platform.to.enable.Gazprom.Neft.to.achieve.the.goals.of.its.development.strategy..One.of.last.year’s.most.significant.projects.was.the.start.of.commercial.development.at.the.Prirazlomnoye.field..This.event.is.truly.historic,.as.we.became.the.first.company.ever.in.Russia.to.produce.oil.on.the.Arctic.shelf..All.field.production.operations,.such.as.drilling,.oil.production.and.storage,.preparation.and.shipment.of.finished.products,.are.made.possible.by.the.Prirazlomnaya.ice-resistant.offshore.stationary.platform..This.is.the.first.international.hydrocarbon.production.project.on.the.Arctic.shelf.to.use.a.stationary.platform..The.Prirazlomnaya.platform.is.designed.to.operate.under.extreme.climatic.conditions,.meets.the.strictest.safety.requirements.and.is.able.to.withstand.the.maximum.ice.load.

The.Company’s.achievements.in.refining.are.also.impressive.–.it.has.switched.to.Class.5.fuel.production.over.two.years.ahead.of.the.deadline.set.by.the.Technical.Regulations..This.is.especially.important.for.large.cities.where.the.use.of.this.fuel.will.have.a.beneficial.effect.on.the.environment..The.next.stage.will.involve.the.implementation.of.deeper.refining.projects.at.Gazprom.Neft.refineries:.we.aim.to.achieve.a.refining.depth.of.95%.by.2025.

The.Company’s.sales.segment.is.also.actively.developing.–.GAZPROM.filling.stations,.which.were.first.launched.outside.Russia.at.the.end.of.2012,.expanded.last.year.into.Bulgaria,.Bosnia.and.Herzegovina,.and.their.number.is.growing.in.Romania.and.Serbia..By.the.end.of.2015,.the.GAZPROM.chain.in.the.Balkans.will.number.at.least.250.filling.stations.

We.would.like.to.acknowledge.the.efforts.of.Gazprom.Neft.management.in.their.contribution.to.the.financial.performance..With.worsening.market.conditions.and.an.increasing.tax.burden,.the.profit.growth.demonstrated.by.Gazprom.Neft.at.the.end.of.2013.was.only.possible.due.to.the.optimization.of.commodity.flows.and.expenses,.as.well.as.other.management.actions.aimed.at.improving.the.Company’s.efficiency.and.overall.performance.

Another.achievement.was.our.shareholders’.dividend.yield,.which.remains.the.highest.among.our.industry.peers..A.new.Company.dividend.policy.was.also.approved.last.year..The.payout.will.be.25%.of.net.income,.as.calculated.under.IFRS..Gazprom.Neft.was.the.first.company.to.start.paying.interim.dividends..This.decision.will.enable.the.Company.to.follow.best.corporate.practices,.while.Gazprom.Neft.shareholders.will.be.able.to.obtain.their.share.in.the.Company’s.profit.in.less.time..

In.2013.we.set.new.milestones.for.the.further.development.of.Gazprom.Neft.and.approved.the.Company’s.strategy.up.to.2025..Gazprom.Neft.intends.to.maintain.production.level.at.100.million.tonnes.of.oil.equivalent.per.year,.and.keep.the.current.reserves.level,.which.is.currently.about.20.years..Gazprom.Neft’s.production.priorities.until.2025.remain.the.same:.retain.its.leading.positions.when.implementing.projects.in.the.North.of.the.YaNAD,.develop.shelf.operations,.use.non-conventional.reserves.through.the.application.of.high-end.technology.and.develop.actively.overseas..After.an.intensive.modernization.program,.the.Company’s.Russian.refining.facilities.will.reach.global.configuration.standards..This.will.enable.Gazprom.Neft.to.actively.continue.increasing.its.shareholder.value.

“In 2013, Gazprom Neft met all its business plan targets and continued to work towards attaining its strategic objectives. The.Company’s.two.key.strategic.focus.areas.are:.the.continuing.modernization.of.refineries.in.order.to.ensure.industry-leading.positions;.and.the.development.of.fields.in.new.regions,.including.the.Arctic.shelf.

Gazprom.Neft.remains.one.of.the.leaders.in.the.oil.industry.in.terms.of.efficiency.and.ranks.first.by.key.indicators.such.as.return.on.capital.and.total.shareholder.yield.”

ADDRESSES

A YEAR OF NEW OPPORTUNITIESADDRESS BY THE CHAIRMAN OF THE MANAGEMENT BOARD

Dear shareholders and investors2013.was.a.successful.year.for.Gazprom.Neft.across.all.its.business.lines..Despite.challenging.macroeconomic.conditions.–.higher.tax.rates.and.natural.monopoly.rates.subject.to.the.same.oil.prices.–.the.Company.performed.very.well.against.its.key.financial.and.operating.indicators.

By.optimizing.existing.fields,.actively.implementing.new.technology.and.increasing.its.asset.portfolio,.production.increased.by.4.3%.to.more.than.62.million.tonnes.of.oil.equivalent..A.significant.event,.not.only.for.our.Company.but.also.for.the.whole.international.oil.industry,.was.the.first.ever.production.of.oil.on.the.Arctic.shelf:.as.a.project.operator,.Gazprom.Neft.started.commercial.development.of.the.Prirazlomnoye.filed.in.the.Pechora.Sea.

Gazprom.Neft.continues.to.develop.its.new.production.cluster.in.the.North.of.the.YaNAD.and.the.Yamal.Peninsula..Preparations.are.well.under.way.to.develop.new.large.fields.–.the.Novoportovskoye.and.Messoyakhskoye.fields.(the.second.project.is.implemented.jointly.with.our.partner,.Rosneft)..We.increased.our.share.in.SeverEnergia.by.over.40%.last.year.

The.Company.is.actively.employing.new.technology.to.develop.hard-to-recover.reserves.at.brown.fields.that.were.previously.considered.inefficient..Gazprom.Neft’s.hard-to-recover.reserve.program.approved.in.2012.will.add.another.300.million.tonnes.of.reserves.to.its.development.portfolio.by.2020..At.year.end.2013,.over.22.million.tonnes.of.hard-to-recover.reserves.were.already.in.development..The.active.implementation.of.innovative.techniques.in.this.area.is.clearly.demonstrated.by.the.fact.that.the.share.of.high-technology.wells.of.the.total.volume.of.drilled.wells.has.increased.from.4%.to.35%.over.the.last.two.years,.making.the.Company.one.of.Russia’s.oil.&.gas.leaders.with.respect.to.this.indicator.

We.continue.to.build.up.our.resource.base.and.were.able.to.increase.proven.reserves.to.1.34.billion.tonnes.of.oil.equivalent.at.year-end.2013..This.means.that.during.the.past.year.we.have.increased.proven.reserves.by.almost.12%,.with.a.reserve.replacement.ratio.of.333%.

Gazprom.Neft’s.international.projects.also.made.good.progress.last.year..We.produced.the.first.oil.in.the.Badra.field.in.Iraq.and.took.part.in.a.new.project.in.the.North.of.the.country,.in.Kurdistan.

In.the.refining.segment,.the.most.important.event.was.the.completion.of.the.quality.program.at.all.of.the.Company’s.refineries.and.the.switch.over.to.the.production.of.higher.class.fuels.to.Euro.5.emission.standards..It.is.notable.that.the.Company.switched.over.to.the.production.of.Euro.5.fuel.quickly.–.2.5.years.earlier.than.required.by.law..In.the.refinery.segment,.our.focus.is.now.turning.to.the.implementation.of.a.deeper.refining.program..As.a.result,.within.a.few.years,.the.refining.depth.will.increase.to.95%.and.the.share.of.light.products.will.be.77%.

At.the.end.of.the.past.year,.the.average.daily.sales.at.filling.stations.grew.by.more.than.8%.to.19.tonnes,.a.record.for.the.Russian.industry..This.was.made.possible.due.to.the.rebuilding.and.rebranding.of.the.filling.station.chain.and.the.implementation.of.our.loyalty.programme.

We.also.extended.the.line.of.G-Drive.premium.fuels.and.G-Energy.and.G-Profi.premium.motor.oils.with.improved.environmental.characteristics..We.are.actively.developing.new.premium.products,.particularly.the.production.of.high.quality.bitumen.materials..Today,.our.Company.is.the.largest.Russian.producer.of.polymer-bituminous.binding.materials.

The.dividend.yield.of.Gazprom.Neft.remains.at.a.steady,.high.level..We.have.the.highest.dividend.yield.in.the.industry.and,.despite.the.growth.of.our.investment.activity,.the.Company.intends.to.maintain.dividend.payments.at.25%.of.consolidated.profits,.as.calculated.under.IFRS..In.2014,.we.will.continue.our.work.to.implement.advanced.technology.to.maintain.production.levels.in.our.traditional.operating.regions,.implement.new.large-scale.projects.both.in.Russia.and.abroad,.continue.to.modernize.our.refineries.and.develop.the.retail.chain...These.actions.will.help.us.to..ensure.further,.sustainable.growth.in.the.Company`s.shareholder.value.

ALEXANDER DYUKOVChairman.of.the.Management.BoardOJSC.Gazprom.Neft

“Over.the.past.year,.Gazprom.Neft.has.continued.to.strengthen.its.operational.and.financial.performance..The.Company’s.results.achieved.in.2013.made.it.one.of.the.industry.leaders.in.terms.of.operating.profit.per.BOE.produced.and.growth.of.adjusted.operation.profit,.subject.to.the.performance.of.its.joint.ventures..

Using the most modern and high-tech methods, we have achieved production growth not only at our new projects, but also at mature fields in traditional regions..Our.main.goals.for.2014.include.our.continuing.refinery.modernization.program,.the.start.of.production.at.the.Badra.field.in.Iraq,.and.further.expansion.of.our.premium.distribution.channels.”

COMPANY STRATEGY:.

NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR INCREASING SHAREHOLDER VALUE

The 2025 Development Strategy for OJSC Gazprom Neft was adopted in May 2013. The document reaffirms the 2020 goals, develops ways to achieve them in the key business segments – hydrocarbon production, oil refining and sales of petroleum products – subject to the changing industry environment and global economy, and also states a key objective for the period from 2020 to 2025 – to maintain the business level achieved by 2020. Today the Company is building its exploration and production project portfolio and expects a plateau in hydrocarbon production to start in 2020. Its goal, therefore, to offset any further decline in production from its aging fields and to maintain the production level at 100 million tonnes of oil equivalent is just as ambitious as the 2020 plans. In the refining and sales segment, the Company remains focused on modernizing its refining facilities and maximizing sales of its petroleum product output through its own premium-class distribution channels.

BUSINESS TARGETS FOR THE COMPANYThe implementation of the plans outlined in the 2025 Strategy is designed to create the maximum shareholder value within the Russian oil & gas industry.

COMPANY STRATEGY

UPDATE ON PROGRESS OF COMPANY STRATEGY IN THE REPORTING YEAR

This reporting year was a successful one for Gazprom Neft. The Company improved its performance against almost all operating and financial indicators; production, operating and net profits increased, despite negative market conditions including a fall in oil and petroleum product prices, the increase in MET and natural monopoly rates, and an increase in excise duties on different fuel types.

The.Gazprom.Neft.Group’s.proven.hydrocarbon.reserves.as.of.December.31,.2013.totalled.1.34.billion.TOE,.a.year-on-year.growth.of.11.9%..The.current.indicator.for.the.Company’s.reserves-to-production.ratio,.for.its.proven.hydrocarbon.reserves.as.per.the.PRMS-SPE.standards,.is.in.excess.of.20.years.

The.resource.base.was.expanded.in.2013.mainly.due.to.an.increase.in.Gazprom.Neft’s.share.of.SeverEnergia.and.its.exploration.results..The.Company’s.subsidiaries.achieved.a.high.level.of.exploration.drilling,.with.a.success.rate.of.75%.at.the.end.of.last.year..In.2013,.the.East.Myginskoe.field.was.discovered.in.the.Tomsk.region,.along.with.another.31.oil.deposits.and.one.gas.deposit..Through.a.targeted.program.to.develop.hard-to-recover.reserves.the.Company.has.successfully.increased.its.oil.recovery.rate.at.nine.fields.

The.Company’s.production.reached.62.26.million.TOE.in.2013,.a.year-on-year.increase.of.4.3%.These.results.are.mainly.due.to.growing.production.in.the.Orenburg.Region.and.at.the.Priobskoye.field.(KhMAD-Yugra),.the.production.and.sale.of.Muravlenkovskoye.field.gas,.the.start.of.oil.production.in.SeverEnergia’s.Samburgskoye.field,.growth.of.APG.utilization,.as.well.as.the.successful.application.of.high.technology.operations.at.the.Company’s.mature.assets..

“One of the challenges any company is facing today is choosing and implementing new technologies effectively. Handling hard-to-recover reserves is a serious technological challenge. We are creating special competency centers that are accumulating, adapting, and helping to share successful technological solutions. All of this will allow us to bring new reserves into development, boost production, and increase efficiency” said Gazprom Neft First Deputy CEO Vadim Yakovlev.

PERFORMANCE BY SEGMENT

EXPLORATION & PRODUCTION OF CRUDE OIL & GAS

In line with the Company’s 2025 Development Strategy covering exploration and production, Gazprom Neft intends to increase hydrocarbon production to 100 million tonnes per year. The reserves-to-production ratio should remain at this level for at least 20 years and international projects should account for over 10% of total production. This target will be achieved by utilizing existing assets, projects in which Gazprom Neft has a share, and oil fields transferred to Gazprom Neft by Gazprom. The Company also plans to expand its asset portfolio by acquiring as yet unallocated rights to sub-soil areas, acquiring assets in the Russian market, and developing projects outside Russia. The implementation of the Company’s long-term plan is based, inter alia, on achieving medium-term goals and focusing on current priorities.

Since.late.2007,.OJSC.Gazprom.Neft.and.OJSC.Oil.Company.Rosneft.have.been.equal.joint.venture.partners,.with.alternating.management,.of.OJSC.Tomskneft.VNK.(in.accordance.with.their.shareholder.agreement)..Starting.in.January.2011,.the.operating.control.of.OJSC.Tomskneft.VNK.was.transferred.to.Gazprom.Neft.for.a.three-year.period.

OJSC.Tomskneft.VNK.produced.10.152.million.tonnes.of.oil,.which.is.0.6%.lower.than.the.Business.Plan.targets.and.0.7%.more.than.in.the.previous.year;.Gazprom.Neft’s.share.was.5.075.million.tonnes.of.oil.

OJSC.NGK.Slavneft.is.a.joint.venture.between.Gazprom.Neft.and.OJSC.RN.Holding.(formerly.TNK-BP)..The.company.is.developing.reserves.in.the.Khanty-Mansiysk.Autonomous.District.and.carrying.out.exploration.and.production.in.the.Krasnoyarsk.Territory..

The.company.produced.16.802.million.tonnes.of.oil.in.2013,.which.is.5.9%.less.than.in.2012;.Gazprom.Neft’s.share.was.8.401.million.tonnes.of.oil.and.0.41.billion.cubic.meters.of.gas..

Since.June.2009,.OJSC.Gazprom.Neft.has.held.a.50%.interest.in.Salym.Petroleum.Development,.a.joint.venture.with.Royal.Dutch.Shell..In.2013,.Salym.Petroleum.Development.produced.6.987.million.tonnes,.of.which.a.share.of.3.494.million.tonnes.was.attributed.to.Gazprom.Neft,.an.8.1%.reduction.versus.2012.

Gazprom.Neft’s.overseas.business,.through.Serbia-based.NIS,.succeeded.in.considerably.increasing.its.oil.output..In.2013,.NIS.produced.1.255.thousand.tonnes,.which.is.2.5%.more.than.in.2012.(1.223.thousand.tonnes).

Gazprom.Neft.maintained.its.leading.position.among.Russian.producers.by.oil.and.gas.volume.output.in.2013.

Gazprom.Neft’s.consolidated.crude.oil.production.was.50.575.million.tonnes.of.oil.in.2013,.a.0.4%.decrease.compared.to.2012,.and.also.0.65%.lower.than.its.2013.Business.Plan.targets.

GAS FIELD DEVELOPMENT & PRODUCTION

The.Company.is.rapidly.developing.its.gas.business,.which.is.focused.on.commercializing.associated.and.natural.gas.reserves.at.oil.fields.and.realizing.the.maximum.value.of.gas.

The.Gazprom.Neft.Group’s.gas.production.program.envisions.rapid.growth.of.gas.production.in.Russia..The.target.is.to.increase.gas.production.and.utilization.from.14.5.billion.cubic.meters.in.2013,.to.22.0.billion.cubic.meters.in.2016.

In.2013,.the.total.production.and.utilization.of.gas.by.Gazprom.Neft.Group.(including.its.share.of.production.from.joint.ventures).was.14.55.billion.cubic.meters..

Total.natural.gas.produced.by.subsidiaries.and.affiliates.was.5.96.billion.cubic.meters,.including.5.91.billion.cubic.meters.of.marketable.gas..The.supply.of.natural.gas.increased.due.to.the.expansion.of.the.Muravlenkovskoye.gas.field.in.Q4.2012.

Peak.annual.natural.gas.production.at.Muravlenkovskoye.rose.from.3.2.billion.cubic.meters.to.4.6.billion.cubic.meters.per.year..In.2013,.an.additional.1.3.billion.cubic.meters.of.gas.was.placed.on.the.market,.which.resulted.in.a.production.increase.of.1.0.million.tonnes.of.oil.equivalent.

Compared.to.2011,.the.average.daily.supply.of.marketable.gas.increased.by.30%..

This.increase.was.due.both.to.the.successful.implementation.of.the.above.production.project.(at.the.Muravlenkovskoye.field).and.projects.for.utilizing.associated.gas,.including.the.main.project,.Noyabrsky.Integrated.Project,.which.completed.its.initial.phase.in.October.2012..In.addition,.a.compressor.station.went.into.operation.in.the.southern.license.area.of.the.Priobskoye.field.in.the.middle.of.2013,.bringing.additional.APG.utilization.up.to.over.100.million.cubic.meters.in.2013.

As.part.of.the.APG.utilization.improvement.project.at.the.Yuzhno-Priobskaya.area,.the.optimal.options.and.configuration.were.approved.for.the.construction.of.a.new.gas.processing.plant.(GPP).with.an.annual.processing.capacity.of.900.million.cubic.meters.based.at.the.existing.Yuzhno-Priobskaya.compressor.station..In.December.2013,.Gazprom.Neft.and.SIBUR.signed.an.agreement.for.the.construction.of.this.GPP.in.the.Khanty-Mansi.Autonomous.District.

PERFORMANCE BY SEGMENT EXPLORATION & PRODUCTION OF CRUDE OIL & GAS

PRODUCTION DRILLING

Gazprom.Neft’s.approved.Business.Plan.for.2014.has.set.a.3.6%.increase.in.hydrocarbon.production.to.64.5.tonnes.of.oil.equivalent.

The.planned.steps.to.slow.down.the.decline.in.production.and.achieve.targets.are.as.follows:.drilling.new.wells,.using.new.technology.to.maximize.yield.from.strata,.reopening.idle.wells,.improving.the.water.injection.system.at.mature.fields,.and.implementing.measures.to.maintain.formation.pressure.in.new.production.areas.

The.plan.for.2014.is.to.drill.754.new.wells.with.a.target.yield.of.28.1.tonnes.per.day..This.will.include.282.horizontal.wells,.with.the.multi-stage.fracturing.technique.used.at.167.wells,.which.is.21%.higher.than.the.reported.horizontal.drilling.in.2013..

Most.of.the.drilling.will.be.performed.at.the.Priobskoye,.Novoportovskoye,.Vyngapurskoye,.Vyngayakhinskoye,.Sugmutskoye,.Kraineye,.Zimneye,.Shinginskoye,.Archinskoye,.Zapadno-Luginetskoye,.Umseyskoye,.and.Yety-Purovskoye.fields..CJSC.Messoyakhaneftegaz.will.continue.the.pilot.commercial.drilling.at.fields.under.development.

The.rates.of.hydrocarbon.output.growth.in.the.coming.years.will.remain.at.4%.to.5%.

This.performance.is.to.be.achieved.by.the.phased.commissioning.of.explored.oil.fields.belonging.to.OJSC.Gazprom.Neft,.following.the.commissioning.of.the.Yamal.fields,.and.the.expansion.of.the.resource.base.by.commissioning.oil.field.assets.of.other.companies.within.the.Group.

The.main.challenge.over.the.next.two.to.three.years.will.be.the.updating.of.the.Group’s.hydrocarbon.production.strategy.to.improve.operations.from.a.depleted.resource.base.

CRUDE OIL PURCHASES

The.36.8%.decline.in.crude.oil.purchases.in.Russia.is.due.to.the.termination.of.the.oil.supply.contract.with.TNK.BP.

OIL REFININGAs a vertically integrated company, Gazprom Neft is, inter alia, focused on refining crude oil and producing petroleum products. Gazprom Neft produces a wide range of oil-refining products and petrochemicals. The Company’s main product lines include automotive gasoline, diesel fuel, lube products, construction and road bitumen, marine fuels, boiler fuel (fuel oil), aviation jet fuel, paraffin wax products, and also a whole range of aromatic hydrocarbons, liquefied petroleum gases, and catalysts.

The.Company’s.main.hydrocarbon.production.priority.to.increase.production.efficiency,.improve.the.environmental.performance.of.fuels,.increase.its.refining.depth,.and.expand.its.volumes.and.product.range.(high-octane.gasoline,.diesel.fuels,.aromatic.hydrocarbons,.coke,.modern.bituminous.materials,.and.petrochemicals)..In.addition,.Gazprom.Neft.places.great.emphasis.on.ensuring.the.safety.of.its.production.operations.and.the.protection.of.the.environment.through.its.integrated.industrial,.occupational.and.environmental.safety.management.system.at.the.Company’s.production.facilities.

Since.2009,.OJSC.Gazprom.Neft.has.been.implementing.a.large-scale.refinery.modernization.program,.not.only.to.improve.the.quality.of.its.products,.but.also.to.make.motor.fuels.more.environmentally-friendly.and.minimize.their.environmental.impact..In.2013,.Gazprom.Neft.refineries.switched.over,.ahead.of.the.deadline.set.by.the.Technical.Regulations,.to.the.production.of.Euro.4.and.Euro.5.motor.fuels.

According.to.2013.figures,.the.modernization.and.product.line.optimization.programs.at.the.Company’s.refineries.in.Russia.increased.the.output.of.Euro.4.and.Euro.5.automotive.gasoline.by.52%.and.Euro.4.and.Euro.5.diesel.fuel.by.129%.compared.to.2012.

In.2013,.Gazprom.Neft.maintained.its.leading.position.among.Russian.oil.companies.in.terms.of.refining.output..During.the.reporting.year,.42.63.million.tonnes.of.crude.oil.were.refined.and.40.5.million.tonnes.of.commercial.petroleum.products.were.produced.at.the.Company’s.facilities..

In.2013,.there.was.a.slight.reduction.compared.to.2012.(-1.6%).in.the.total.refining.volume.at.the.Company’s.refineries.due.to.planned.maintenance.at.the.crude.oil.distillation.plants.of.the.Omsk.Refinery.(September-October.2013).and.the.Yaroslavl.Refinery.(March-April.2013),.as.well.as.the.decline.in.refining.volumes.at.the.Mozyr.Refinery.

PERFORMANCE BY SEGMENT SALES OF PETROLEUM PRODUCTS

The dynamic development of Gazprom Neft’s bunkering business has become the basis for setting even more ambitious goals to achieve before 2025. The main trend in the international bunkering market is the increasingly demanding environmental standards for marine fuels. Therefore, besides actively expanding its international presence, Gazpromneft Marine Bunker is planning to expand its range of fuels and implement a liquefied natural gas bunkerage project in the near future, which will facilitate the formation of a new market segment.

CONTENTS

Gazprom Neft’s long-term development strategy is based on maximum business efficiency and feasibility as a key competitive factor. In 2013, the Gazprom Neft Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2020 Innovation Development Program that includes information on the main areas of Gazprom Neft’s innovation development, cooperation plans with external organization, as well as key performance indicators corresponding to the indicators of the Innovative Development Program of OJSC Gazprom, the major shareholder. The key objectives include field exploration and development under adverse geological and climatic conditions, economic and energy efficient production at depleted fields, as well as the development of oil refining and petrochemistry.

CONTENTS

For.the.first.time.in.Russia,.a.horizontal.well.was.brought.on-stream.following.a.ten-stage.hydraulic.fracturing.at.Gazprom.Neft’s.Vyngapurovskoye.field,.operated.by.OJSC.Gazpromneft.Noyabrskneftegaz..The.depth.of.the.new.well.is.nearly.4,500.meters,.and.the.length.of.the.horizontal.section.is.over.1,000.meters..There.was.an.additional.operational.difficulty.–.the.formation.through.which.the.horizontal.section.of.the.well.was.drilled.was.only.four.meters.thick..Moreover,.the.effective.horizontal.well.length.(i.e..the.section.of.the.well.that.penetrates.the.oil-containing.formation.without.coming.into.contact.with.the.surrounding.rock).reached.90%,.which.is.above.average.even.for.wells.with.shorter.horizontal.wellbores.

The.flow.rate.obtained.at.the.well.was.over.135.tonnes.per.day,.which.exceeded.the.results.obtained.at.horizontal.wells.with.a.lower.number.of.hydraulic.fracturing.stages.by.approximately.one.third.

An.acid.multiple.hydraulic.fracturing.operation.was.carried.out.for.the.first.time.in.the.East.area.of.the.Orenburg.oil.and.gas.condensate.field.as.part.of.Gazprom.Neft’s.depleted.reserves.program..Acid.multiple.hydraulic.fracturing.involves.metered.injections.of.a.special.gelatinous.compound.and.inhibited.hydrochloric.acid.into.the.stratum..During.the.first.stage,.a.viscous.layer.fills.the.cracks.in.the.reservoir..Subsequent.acid.processing.makes.it.possible.to.achieve.a.deeper.penetration.of.the.compound.into.the.stratum..The.treated.channels.remain.open,.which.allows.the.cracks.to.have.a.high.throughput.and.increases.the.influx.of.oil.into.the.well.

The.hydraulic.fracturing.consisted.of.five.stages..The.length.of.the.horizontal.section.was.600.meters..A.total.of.two.hydraulic.fracturing.operations.were.performed.on.two.separate.production.wells..Once.the.operations.have.been.completed,.the.combined.average.flow.rate.of.both.wells.will.add.up.to.approximately.80.tonnes.of.oil.per.day..The.wells.function.via.natural.flow.

In.the.past.year,.Salym.Petroleum.Development,.a.joint.venture.between.Gazprom.Neft.and.Shell,.continued.the.implementation.of.its.pilot.project.(covering.the.period.2013-2016).to.introduce.a.technology.for.alkali-surfactant-polymer.(ASP).water.flooding.to.increase.oil.yield.from.formations.at.the.Zapadno-Salymskoye.field..� Adjusting.experiments.were.performed.to.establish.the.phase.behaviour.and.formula.specification.and.concentration.of.the.main.chemical.agents.(surfactant,.polymer,.soda).found.in.the.ASP.solution.

.� Core.experiments.were.performed.in.order.to.determine.the.amount.of.surfactant.absorption.in.rock.

.� Main.pilot.project.facilities.were.designed.

.� Research.into.Russian-produced.surfactant.analogues.commenced.

.� Laboratory.experiments.were.carried.out.to.determine.the.efficiency.of.a.chemical.‘cocktail’.of.ASP.and.oil.from.the.Pogranichnoye.field.

.� A.technical.and.economic.assessment.was.performed.into.the.application.of.ASP.water.flooding.in.the.Pogranichnoye.field.in.order.to.determine.project.optimization.methods.

Another.milestone.in.2013.was.the.drilling.of.multilateral.wells..Gazprom.Neft.drilled.the.very.first.Russian.four-borehole.horizontal.well.at.the.Umseyskoye.field..

At.present,.most.of.Gazprom.Neft.fields.are.at.stages.3.and.4.of.development..It.needs.to.be.taken.into.consideration.that.some.fields.have.adverse.geological.conditions.which,.given.the.late.stages.of.development,.create.an.imbalance.in.the.proportion.of.reserves.recovered.from.watering..Sidetracking.solves.the.problem.of.recovering.geologically-complex.reserves.and.immovable.oil.recovery.in.the.development.process,.and.helps.to.avoid.high.watercuts.

In.2013,.the.rotary.steerable.systems.–.a.new.generation.of.downhole.equipment.for.drilling.wells.–.reduced.capital.costs.by.0.6%,.whilst.increasing.hydrocarbon.production.by.0.6.million.tonnes..The.total.incremental.increase.between.2013.and.2016.is.expected.to.reach.2.1.million.tonnes..

A.development.project.at.Bazhena.is.being.implemented.within.the.Palianovskaya.area.of.the.Krasnoleninskoye.field..Based.on.paleotectonic.reconstruction.and.geomechanical.modelling,.a.model.of.a.fracture-block.stratum.structure.was.built..The.model.allows.the.identification.of.potentially.productive.zones.for.the.drilling.of.new.wells..The.results.from.the.pilot.well.drilling.support.the.development.methods.recognized.for.the.Bazhenovskaya.suite.of.deposits..The.well.revealed.that.the.fracture.zone.was.an.oil.filtration.channel..Where.it.was.impossible.to.find.potentially.productive.fracture.zones.for.any.reason.by.drilling.a.well,.recommendations.were.made.to.carry.out.acid.multiple.hydraulic.fracturing.operations.in.order.to.actively.develop.filtration.channels.

CONTENTS

DEBT PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT & CREDIT RATINGS

The.Company.follows.a.conservative.debt.financing.policy..One.of.the.main.principles.of.this.policy.is.to.ensure.a.strong.financial.position,.which.is.indicated,.inter.alia,.by.maintaining.the.Net.Debt/EBITDA.ratio.calculated.for.the.entire.Gazprom.Neft.Group..The.Company.makes.every.effort.to.ensure.that.the.ratio.is.maintained.at.a.level.no.higher.than.1.5..During.the.reporting.period,.the.Company’s.Net.Debt./.EBITDA.ratio.remained.much.lower.than.the.threshold...As.of.December.31,.2012.it.was.0.51;.and.as.of.December.31,.2013.it.was.0.59,.according.to.IFRS.consolidated.statements.

An.important.principle.in.attracting.debt.financing.is.to.optimize.the.rates.and.borrowing.periods.by.aligning.them.to.the.Company’s.financing.projects.and.the.situation.on.the.debt.markets..For.example,.the.long-term.nature.of.the.Company’s.investment.projects.caused.the.average.debt.period.to.increase.from.3.81.years.as.of.December.31,.2012,.to.5.15.years.as.of.December.31,.2013...In.the.meantime,.a.careful.selection.of.financing.instruments.(including.rate.type,.investors,.and.debt.currency).and.the.timing.of.market.access,.allowed.the.weighted.average.interest.rate.to.remain.at.almost.the.same.level.–.3.48%.as.of.December.31,.2012.and.3.68%.as.of.December.31,.2013..The.proportion.of.short-term.borrowing.to.total.debt.decreased.considerably.from.31.7%.as.of.December.31,.2012.to.16.7%.as.of.December.31,.20131.

In order to finance its activities, Gazprom Neft relies upon both its own funding sources, such as revenue from its operations, and borrowings. By setting a target debt-to-equity ratio for its capital structure, the Company seeks to attain an optimal balance between the total cost of capital on the one hand, and the Company’s assured long-term financial stability on the other.

BASIC PRINCIPLES OF DEBT PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

1. In.accordance.with.the.Group’s.Management.Discussion.and.Analysis.for.the.three.months.ending.December.31,.and.September.30,.2013,.and.for.the.years.ending.on.December.31,.2013.and.2012.

KEY IRMS DEPLOYMENT STAGES

Implementation of the integrated risk management system at the Company began in August 2008, when the Company’s management board approved the concept.

2008–2010 2011–2012 2013–2014 (aims)

Developed.the.IRMS.implementation.concept.and.received.the.Management.Board’s.approval.

The.scope.of.the.IRMS.was.expanded.to.include.subsidiaries.and.affiliates,.joint.ventures.and.major.projects..Risk.management.procedures.were.established.for.major.projects..

Continued.integration.of.the.IRMS.at.new.assets.

Introduced.a.new.corporate.standard,.“IRMS:.Procedure.for.identifying.and.assessing.risks,.preparing.responses,.and.monitoring.compliance”.

Introduced.risk-oriented.planning.for.internal.audit. Further.improvement.of.risk.assessment.methodology,.adoption.of.regulatory.and.methodology.documents.for.the.quantitative.assessment.of.individual.risks.

Expanded.the.scope.of.the.IRMS.to.cover.29.business.entities.(20.subsidiaries.and.affiliates,.and.nine.sub-divisions.at.the.Corporate.Center)..

Analyzed.the.IRMS.to.ascertain.its.compliance.with.best.international.practices.(Ernst.&.Young)...The.development.of.the.IRMS.was.recognized.as.compliant.with.best.practice..Integrated.IRMS.processes.into.executive.decision-making.procedures,.an.important.factor.in.the.current.stage.of.corporate.development.

Integration.of.the.IRMS.into.corporate.business.processes.(business.planning,.project.management,.target-based.management,.and.others).

In.two.phases,.in.June.2009.and.March.2011,.the.IRMS.was.analyzed.to.ascertain.its.compliance.with.best.practices.(by.Ernst.&.Young)..The.risk.management.system.was.found.to.be.compliant.with.best.international.practice.in.terms.of.ERM.(Enterprise.Risk.Management).system.building.

Developing.an.IT.system.to.support.IRMS.processes.

IRMS DEPLOYMENT

The.Company.has.developed.and.formalized.a.uniform.approach.to.its.risk.management.processes,.which.is.fully.contained.in.the.”Integrated.Risk.Management.System”.(IRMS).corporate.standard.

Gazprom.Neft’s.IRMS.is.a.systematic,.continuous.process.that.identifies,.assesses.and.manages.risks.

Its.key.principle.is.that.the.responsibility.for.managing.different.risks.is.assigned.to.managers.at.various.levels,.depending.on.the.potential.financial.impact.of.each.specific.risk.

By.late.2011,.the.Company.had.implemented.basic.IRMS.processes.at.most.of.its.major.subsidiaries.and.affiliates,.and.was.therefore.able.to.develop.a.detailed.corporate.risk.map.for.2011.by.consolidating.identified.risks.from.individual.subsidiary.and.affiliate.levels.across.the.entire.Company..In.2012-2013,.the.scope.of.the.IRMS.was.extended.as.the.asset.portfolio.grew,..with.11.new.assets.in.the.Exploration.and.Production.Segment.(EPS)..and.four.assets.added.to.the.Logistics,.Refinement.and.Sales.Segment.(LRSS)..At.the.end.of.2013,.the.IRMS.covered.all.of.OJSC.Gazprom.Neft’s.major.assets;.it.will.be.extended.further.whenever.new.projects.are.launched.or.operating.assets.are.acquired.

This.approach.made.it.possible.to.outline.risk.management.responsibility.areas,.and.to.monitor.these.at.every.level.of.corporate.management,.and.to.have.customized.response.plans.to.address.material.risks.at.each.subsidiary/affiliate.and.throughout.the.Company.

The.IRMS.standards.and.methods.are.included.in.the.following.documents:.� Risk.management.policy;.� The.corporate.standard.“Integrated.Risk.Management.System.Procedure.for.identifying.and.assessing.risks,.preparing.responses,.and.monitoring.compliance”;.and

.� Guidelines.for.the.risk.management.process,.including.the.Risk.Registry,.Card.and.Matrix.templates.

The.Company.works.continuously.to.improve.its.basic.IRMS.processes.with.a.particular.emphasis.on.assessing.risks.and.integrating.risk.management.processes.into.key.corporate.processes,.such.as.business.planning,.project.management.and.M&A.

To.make.IRMS.processes.more.efficient,.in.2013.Gazprom.Neft.embarked.upon.an.IRMS.automation.project..By.the.year.end,.phase.one.was.completed,.which.involved.the.creating.and.commissioning.of.a.central.database.to.monitor.the.Company’s.risks..The.plan.for.2014.is.to.populate.the.database.with.updated.content,.train.users.and.produce.executive.reports.

INTEGRATION OF THE IRMS INTO THE BUSINESS PLANNING PROCESS

During.the.reporting.year,.risk.assessment.became.an.integral.part.of.the.business.planning.process..As.a.result,.EPS-.and.LRSS-related.business.plans.for.2013.to.2015.are,.therefore,.characterized.by.a.more.detailed.approach.to.risk.assessment:.the.existing.assessment.and.description.of.risk.factors.have.been.revised.at.the.subsidiary.and.affiliate.level.taking.into.account.changing.conditions.and.new.plans;.and.information.on.the.key.risks.faced.by.subsidiaries,.affiliates.and.business.blocks,.as.well.as.risk.mitigation.measures,.have.been.incorporated.into.the.respective.business.plans.

As.part.of.the.efforts.to.integrate.risk.management.processes.into.the.Company’s.project.management.processes.(primarily.major.exploration.and.production.projects),.a.methodological.base.was.developed.in.2013.to.enable.analysis.of.project.risks..Its.purpose.is.to.work.out.a.project.plan.(starting.with.a.time.schedule).that.is.balanced.through.correlation.of.the.objectives.with.the.level.of.uncertainty.(risks);.this.helps.to.set.goals.that.are.both.ambitious.and.achievable..In.2014,.the.Company.plans.to.fully.deploy.this.methodology.on.each.major.project.

Risks Description Risk management activities

Risks related to possible changes in prices for purchased materials and services

In.the.course.of.its.business,.Gazprom.Neft.utilizes.the.transportation.infrastructure.of.monopolistic.providers.for.crude.oil.and.petroleum.transportation;..and.purchases.electricity.from.monopolistic.suppliers

The.Company.has.no.control.over.the.infrastructure.of.these.monopolistic.providers,.nor.can.it.control.the.tariff.rates.payable..It.should.be.noted.that.tariff.rates.are.controlled.by.Russian.Government.agencies,.but.the.rates.increase.from.year.to.year,.creating.additional.costs.for.the.Company.

The.Company.takes.various.steps.to.mitigate.such.risks:.� Long-term.planning.of.commodity.flows;.timely.reservation.of.transportation.services.and.rolling.stock.for.crude.oil.and.petroleum.products;

.� Optimizing.the.distribution.of.commodity.flows.between.different.types.of.transportation;.and

.� Using.alternative.energy.and.the.Company’s.own.sources.of.power.generation.

These.steps.reduce.the.risks.related.to.services.and.products.purchased.from.monopolists.to.acceptable.levels,.and.ensure.the.continuity.of.the.Company’s.operations.

Risks related to possible changes in prices for crude oil and petrochemicals

The.Company’s.financial.performance.relates.directly.to.the.prices.of.its.crude.oil.and.petrochemicals..The.Company.is.unable.to.fully.control.the.prices.of.its.products,.which.depend.on.the.balance.of.supply.and.demand.in.global.and.domestic.markets.for.crude.oil.and.petroleum.products,.and.on.the.actions.of.regulatory.agencies.

.� The.Company.uses.a.range.of.actions.to.reduce.mineral.extraction.costs;

.� A.business.planning.system.is.used.to.calculate.different.scenarios.for.the.Company’s.key.performance.factors.depending.on.global.oil.prices..This.approach.can.decrease.costs.by.reducing.or.rescheduling.investment.programs,.and.by.other.mechanisms.

Such.activities.help.to.lower.risks.to.an.acceptable.level.and.ensure.that.the.Company.can.perform.as.planned.

INDUSTRY RISKSThe.main.businesses.of.Gazprom.Neft.are.the.production.of.crude.oil.and.gas,.oil.refining,.and.the.sales.of.crude.oil.and.petroleum.products..Therefore,.the.risks.that.the.Company.faces.are.typical.for.the.whole.oil.and.gas.industry,.specifically:

.� Risks.related.to.possible.changes.in.prices.for.purchased.materials.and.services;

.� Risks.related.to.possible.changes.in.prices.for.crude.oil.and.petrochemicals;

.� Risks.related.to.competition.within.the.industry;.and

.� Risks.related.to.geological.exploration.

INDUSTRY RISKS (CONTINUED)

Risks Description Risk management activities

Risks related to competition within the industry

There.is.tough.competition.between.leading.Russian.oil.and.gas.producers.in.their.main.lines.of.business,.including:.� The.acquisition.of.sub-soil.usage.licenses.for.hydrocarbon.production.in.auction.sales.arranged.by.the.Russian.Government;

.� The.purchase.of.other.companies.that.own.sub-soil.licenses.or.assets.related.to.hydrocarbon.production;

.� The.implementation.of.foreign.projects;

.� Contracting.with.major.third-party.service.providers;

.� The.purchase.of.high-tech.equipment;

.� The.purchase.of.existing.retail.chains.and.of.land.to.build.new.retail.outlets;.and

.� Expanding.sales.markets.and.sales.volumes.

Management.implements.a.portfolio.of.strategic.projects.to.develop.Gazprom.Neft’s.business.in.its.main.segments,.ensuring.the.gradual.strengthening.of.the.Company’s.positions.in.the.competitive.oil.and.gas.industry,.and.reducing.risks.associated.with.industry.competition.

Gazprom.Neft.has.extensive.experience.in.geological.surveying.and.in.using.the.most.advanced.geophysical.methods.for.hydrocarbon.exploration.and.surveying;.and.also.has.modern.technologies.for.drilling.and.deposit.development..These.capabilities.reduce.risks.related.to.geological.factors.

Risks related to geological exploration

A.key.strategic.objective.for.the.Company.is.to.increase.the.quantity.and.quality.of.its.hydrocarbon.resource.base.in.order.to.ensure.satisfactory.production.levels..This,.in.turn,.is.largely.dependent.on.the.success.of.geological.exploration.

The.main.risk.associated.with.geological.exploration.is.that.target.levels.of.hydrocarbon.reserves.will.fail.to.be.confirmed..Another.important.factor.is.that.geological.surveying.is.carried.out.in.various.geographical.regions,.including.some.with.harsh.climates,.which.often.incurs.the.risk.of.additional.costs..

On.the.whole,.the.Company.views.the.political.situation.in.Russia.as.stable.and.does.not.see.any.risk.of.negative.developments.at.present.

Risks related to foreign assets

The.Company.has.undertaken.a.number.of.foreign.projects.with.the.aim.of.expanding.its.geographical.areas.of.production.

Expansion.into.new.regions.is.associated.both.with.the.possible.benefit.of.obtaining.extra.competitive.advantages,.and.with.the.risk.of.underestimating.the.economic.and.political.situation.in.the.countries.where.the.Company’s.assets.are.located..This.could.then.lead.to.a.failure.to.achieve.performance.targets.

Currently,.Gazprom.Neft.sees.the.level.of.risks.related.to.its.foreign.assets.as.acceptable;.however,.adverse.changes.cannot.be.ruled.out,.since.such.risks.are.beyond.the.Company’s.control.

Corruption risks As.the.Company.actively.enters.new.international.mar-kets,.there.are.increasing.risks.of.anti-corruption.laws.in.the.US.and.UK.being.extended.to.the.Company..

Gazprom.Neft.is.working.on.a.program.to.control.corruption.risks..Essentially,.the.strategy.is.to.take.proactive.steps.to.minimize.the.risks.of.liability.for.any.lack.of.procedures.to.prevent.bribery..The.program.will.assess.the.role.of.corruption.risk.in.the.Company’s.risk.management.system,.design.a.corporate.policy,.and.devise.a.communications.strategy.and.provide.appropriate.employee.training.required.for.the.project.implementation.

ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS

LEGAL RISKSGazprom.Neft.acts.in.strict.compliance.with.the.requirements.of.Russian.law.and.those.of.other.jurisdictions.where.it.operates.

The.Company.cannot.rule.out.the.risk.of.any.future.changes.in.Russian.law.that.may.have.a.negative.impact.on.the.Company,.since.most.associated.risk.factors.are.beyond.the.Company’s.control.

Negative.impacts.in.this.risk.category.are.mitigated.by.monitoring.and.responding.in.a.timely.manner.to.changes.in.various.areas.of.the.law,.and.through.continuous.engagement.with.legislative.and.executive.governments,.and.with.social.organizations.in.relation.to.the.interpretation,.correct.application,.and.improvement.in.legislation.

Risks Description Risk management activities

Risks related to changes in tax law

Gazprom.Neft.is.one.of.the.largest.taxpayers.in.the.Russian.Federation;.it.pays.federal.taxes,.regional.and.local.taxes,.including.value-added.tax,.corporate.income.tax,.mineral.extraction.taxes,.corporate.property.taxes.and.land.taxes..

In.the.course.of.its.business,.the.Company.constantly.monitors.all.changes.in.tax.law,.and.changes.in.the.interpretation.and.application.of.existing.tax.law..The.Company.also.advises.the.Government.on.improving.legislation.and.on.creating.new.regulatory.acts.in.the.field.of.taxation.

Risks related to changes in customs regulations and duties

The.Company.is.engaged.in.foreign.trade,.and.is.therefore.exposed.to.risks.related.to.changes.in.laws.and.government.regulation.in.the.area.of.foreign.trade,.and.to.customs.laws.which.specify.procedures.for.the.passage.of.commodities.across.the.customs.border.of.the.Russian.Federation,.adoption.and.enforcement.of.customs.regimes,.and.the.introduction.and.collection.of.customs.duties.

Risks.include.the.possibility.that.the.Russian.Government.might.change.the.level.of.customs.duties.(both.import.and.export.duties).payable.on.various.commodities.for.which.Gazprom.Neft.has.signed.foreign.contracts..The.main.consequence.of.such.risk.would.be.higher.costs.and.a.less.efficient.exports.business.

OJSC.Gazprom.Neft.complies.with.customs.control.procedures.and.processes.all.documents.required.for.both.export.and.import.operations..It.has.sufficient.financial.and.human.resources.to.ensure.compliance.with.customs-related.rules.and.regulations.

Risks related to changes in license compliance for main business lines

Sub-soil.legislation.is.evolving.towards.a.more.detailed.regulation.of.sub-soil.usage.by.the.Government,.more.rational.use.of.sub-soil.areas,.and.strict.compliance.with.legal.standards.for.environmental.protection.

Gazprom.Neft.operates.its.license.areas.in.strict.compliance.with.the.requirements.of.Russian.sub-soil.legislation,.and.updates.its.license.agreements.to.ensure.their.compliance.with.relevant.laws.

The.Company.analyzes.and.assesses.legislative.initiatives.by.relevant.ministries.and.departments.in.the.area.of.sub-soil.legislation.and.licensing..The.proposed.and.discussed.amendments.to.the.current.legislation.will.have.an.overall.positive.effect.on.the.regime.of.sub-soil.use.and.on.the.performance.of.licensable.operations.in.the.Russian.Federation.

Gazprom.Neft.is.not.aware.of.any.legal.risks.directly.associated.with.the.loss.of.sub-soil.rights.or.breaches.of.current.law.due.to.these.legislative.changes.

Risks related to changes in court practice on issues relevant to Company business

Under.the.current.system.of.enforcement,.in.the.Russian.Federation.the.highest.courts.have.the.most.significant.legal.positions.(the.Constitutional.Court.of.the.Russian.Fed-eration,.the.Supreme.Court.of.the.Russian.Federation,.and.the.Supreme.Arbitration.Court.of.the.Russian.Federation),.which.can.influence.the.Company’s.business.activities.

Gazprom.Neft.regularly.monitors.verdicts.by.high.courts,.and.assesses.the.impact.of.trends.in.legal.interpretation.by.district.arbitration.courts..The.Company.proactively.uses.the.results.of.such.monitoring.to.protect.its.lawful.rights.and.interests.in.court,.and.to.resolve.legal.issues.that.arise.from.its.operations..Therefore,.risks.related.to.changes.in.court.practices.are.viewed.as.negligible.
