Browder believes that the stock held by Surgut subsidiaries should be classified as treasury shares and cancelled because it hasn’t been used in a year. The Russian Law on JointStock Companies states that a company must cancel unissued treasury shares held on its balance sheet if they are not used within one year. The company can neither receive divi dends from those shares, nor vote with them. In Surgutneftegas’ case, its shares are held by its subsidiaries, and both vote and receive dividends. We see no direct violation of the law. However, the minority investors have said they believe the law should be applied more strictly in this case. Surgut’s managers control the company through shares held by the subsidiaries. Canceling the shares would in our view reduce manage ment control over Surgut and make it a takeover target. We believe that Surgut minority investors have lit tle chance of winning the case.

  • The Future of Russian Oil Production in the Short, Medium, and Long Term
    September 2019 The Future of Russian Oil Production in the Short, Medium, and Long Term Introduction This paper has two major goals. The first is to update reports published by the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies in April 2015 and February 2017 which both assessed the short-term outlook for Russian oil production in the light of sanctions and the first OPEC+ agreement which committed Russia to a production cut of 300,000 bpd from January 2017. Both these papers argued that, despite the impact of sanctions on the financing of the Russian oil sector and the availability of international technology in some spheres (most specifically offshore, the Arctic, and shale oil), the immediate impact on Russian oil production would be low due to the number of new projects already under development or close to production. Indeed, it was already clear in February 2017 that the main constraint on Russian oil output in the short-term would be the low oil price and the resulting cooperation between OPEC and non-OPEC producers to constrain production in order to reduce the oversupply of oil in the global market. As will be discussed below, the initial plan for a six-month production cut by the OPEC+ group was ultimately extended to 18 months, and then after only a six-month period of increased output a new agreement was put into place at the start of 2019. As a result, the full potential of Russian production has yet to be proven, with the Russian oil companies remaining frustrated at the necessity of holding back new fields and restraining production at many existing assets.
