The Russian Government Supported the Investment Activities of the Company
Gazprom neftekhim Salavat's project was included in the list of modern technologies for special investment contracts.
By the Order of the Russian Federation Government dated November 9, 2023, the list of modern technologies for the conclusion of special investment contracts was expanded. Among the 69 new items there is the superabsorbent polymers production technology (hereinafter — SAP), which is being implemented at Gazprom neftekhim Salavat LLC.
Realization of the SAP project will make it possible to occupy a free niche in the production of superabsorbent polymers and become the first and only producer of SAP in Russia, as well as in the CIS and Eastern Europe, which is in high demand in the personal care industry (polymeric absorbent layer of disposable hygiene products). Ice acrylic acid of high purity produced by Acryl Salavat LLC, a subsidiary of Gazprom neftekhim Salavat LLC, will be used as feedstock for the SAP project. The capacity of the SAP project will be 45,000 tons per year.
Under the special investment contract, the investor undertakes to implement an investment project for the modern technology development and introduction to establish serial manufacture of industrial products in Russia within the contractual timeframe.
The State, in turn, guarantees the investor favorable, clear and unchangeable conditions for investments, including tax benefits and special land leasing terms without tenders.
