Executive summary

In Russia, oil and gas sector development poses irreversible damage to the environment. The

Soviet heritage of extensive poorly maintained infrastructure, bad operational practices, high level

of corruption, lack of control over compliance with environmental standards, and traditional lack of

attention to environmental problems enhance this damage.
