By: The_Energy_Report
Renaissance Capital oil and gas analyst Alex Burgansky, who ranks at the top of the list of sector analysts in Russia, shares his insights on the industry and its issues in this exclusive Energy Report interview. Russia's 2009 oil production is up a bit—contrary to the collapse many commentators had predicted—but issues remain.

He also talks how Europe's infrastructure affects the gas it imports from Russia and other parts of the world.

Russian Oligarchs Escape from Russia Leaving Ruined Companies Behind / Companies / Russia
By: Pravda
As soon as air castles built on oil money start crumbling, Russian businessmen run to escape behind the thick walls of their oversea mansions.
