Russia has offered assistance to its partners in the Middle East in the restoration of damaged refineries, said the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Anton Alikhanov at the plenary session of the 4th International Congress "Russian Engineer" "Currently, all global partnerships are being tested to the limit. And when refineries were damaged in the Middle East crisis, they offered their counterparts in the Arabian Peninsula assistance in their rehabilitation." According to Alikhanov, we have already developed our capabilities in oil and gas equipment enough to be an alternative to global licensees, and we have created our own set of industrial standards that compete with API, which are gradually recognized by Arab partners. Russia expects to achieve the same standard recognition for LNG equipment and offshore developments. Although here our engineers still have to assemble new equipment for supply technology networks under EPC contracts Energy Today without VPN: MAX / website.
