Russian M&A review 2017 3 Overview Although deal activity increased by 13% in 2017, the value of Russian M&A Deal was 12% lower than the previous activity 13% year, at USD66.9 billion, mainly due to an absence of larger deals. This was in particular reflected in the oil and gas sector, which in 2016 was characterised by three large deals with a combined value exceeding USD28 billion. The good news is that investors have adjusted to the realities of sanctions and lower oil prices, and sought opportunities brought by both the economic recovery and governmental efforts to create a new industrial strategy. 2017 saw a significant rise in the number and value of deals outside the Deal more traditional extractive industries value 37% and utility sectors, which have historically driven Russian M&A. Oil and gas sector is excluded If the oil and gas sector is excluded, then the value of deals rose by 37%, from USD35.5 billion in 2016 to USD48.5 billion in 2017.

  • Russia's Top Ten Gas Export Destinations 2012
    Lesson five teacher notes In this lesson, students will study global interactions between Russia and other places, including the European Union and China. These interactions include the exchange of fossil fuels for money. Other countries depend on Russia for the natural resources they need. In turn, financial flows, generated by gas and oil sales, make Russia richer. However, much of the petrodollar wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few individuals and corporations, sometimes referred to as the oil oligarchs (an oligarchy is a power structure where power lies in the hands of a small group of people). They will continue to consider important connections in human geography between different places, creating a state of inter-dependency. In terms of skills, they will develop an ability to plot proportional arrows and deign choropleth maps. They will think critically about the reasons why Russia’s neighbours in Europe have strived to build a good geopolitical relationship with Russia Russian gas and oil exports Russia’s top ten gas export destinations 2012 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 Billion Billion cubicmetres peryear 0 Belarus Belgium Czech France Germany Hungary Italy Poland Turkey Ukraine Republic Source: BP Russia’s top five oil export destinations 2012 Barrels per year Belarus 157 million Poland 172 million China 175 million Netherlands 201 million Germany 250 million Source: US Energy Information Administration Imports from Russia as a percentage of total imports of natural gas, 2012 Austria 71 Bulgaria 100 Czech Republic 100 Estonia 100 Finland 100 France 16 Germany 36 Greece 60 Hungary 44 Italy 28 Latvia 100 Lithuania 100 Netherlands 11 Poland 80 Romania 86 Slovakia 99 Slovenia 28 UK Unknown Source: Financial Times Keeping an eye on Russian-Chinese deals Source Global Research website: http://www.globalresearch.ca/global-geopolitics-and-the-russia-china-gas-deal-of-the-century/5383286 Gas Russia is the second-largest producer of dry natural gas and third-largest liquid fuels producer in the world.
