The decline in oil and petroleum product prices on global markets was held in check by growth in sales volume and prices on the Russian market, which only resulted in a 2.1% decrease in revenue taking into account duties.
Growth in hydrocarbon production and management’s actions to optimise the volume of refining and the output structure not only compensated for the negative impact of the major tax manoeuvre (introduced at the start of 2015), but also ensured an 18.2% increase in adjusted EBITDA.
The decrease in net profit attributable to Gazprom neft PJSC shareholders (—10.2%) compared with the growth in EBITDA (+18.2%) resulted from the negative impact of foreign exchange differences from the revaluation of loans and credits, an increase in depreciation charges as a result of the investment programme, the creation of asset impairment provisions and growth in financial expenses due to increased borrowing costs in the Russian Federation.
