Joint Stock Company Gazprom Promgaz (Russian: Акционерное Общество "Газпром промгаз", abbreviated JSC Gazprom Promgaz, (Russian: ОАО "Газпром промгаз"), IPA: [ɡɐsˈprom promˈɡas]) is a Russian company that specializes in structural engineering, design, research, heating, the electric power market, and other services related to natural gas. The company is a research institute of Gazprom and was established in 1949.[2][4][5][6][7][8]
The headquarters of the company are in Moscow. Gazprom Promgaz has branches in Vidnoye (Moscow Oblast), Novokuznetsk (Kemerovo Oblast), Oryol, Saint Petersburg, Ufa, Stavropol, Astrakhan (Russia), Minsk (Belarus),[9][10][11] and Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan).[12] Gazprom Promgaz has also an associated company, Ltd "Kamensk Plant of Gas Equipment" (Russian: ООО "Каменский завод газоиспользующего оборудования") in Kamensk-Shakhtinsky (Rostov Oblast).[13][14]
History
[edit]The organization was established on 17 June 1949 and was primarily called the All-Union Research and Design Institute of Underground Coal Gasification or VNIIPodzemgaz (Russian: Всесоюзный научно-исследовательский и проектный институт подземной газификации углей, or ВНИИПодземгаз). It was created from the Laboratory of Underground Gasification of the All-Union Gas Research Institute (Russian: ВНИГИ), and developed technologies of underground coal, oil shale and petroleum gasification.
The first director of VNIIPodzemgaz was Andrey Chernyshov. Under his direction, the basis of technology of underground coal gasification was developed and awarded the Stalin prize. In 1954, technicians of VNIIPodzemgaz made hydraulic fracturing of the coal-bed for the first time in the world.[15]
In 1964, VNIIPodzemgaz was renamed as the All-Union Research and Designed Institute of Industrial Gasification or VNIIPromgaz (Russian: ВНИИПромгаз).
In the 1970s, the organization transformed into the all-Union research association, which consisted of the following:
- Research institute
- Central Asian branch in Tashkent (Uzbekistan)
- Three plants for making gas-powered equipment:
- Kamensk-Shakhtinsky (Russia)
- Fastov (Ukraine)
- Leninabad (now Qanliko‘l, Uzbekistan) - Startup and adjustment sectors
- State test center for gas burner devices
- Special planning and design bureau
During these years, the organization was headed by Nikolay Fyodorov. Since the early 1970s to the mid-1980s, the organization worked as the Coordinating Сentre for the Comecon countries on development of methods to use gas as a fuel and the creation of gas-powered equipment.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union and a series of reforms (including transformation of state enterprises into joint stock companies in 1994), VNIIPromgaz became Open Joint Stock Company Promgaz (OAO Promgaz, Russian: ОАО "Промгаз") and was entirely focused on the development of technologies for effective gas use.
In 2008, Promgaz was renamed to OJSC Gazprom Promgaz.
In February 2013, professor Yury Spector became CEO.[16]
In 2014, the company projected the general scheme for gas supply of Kyrgyzstan.[17]
In 2015, Oleg Andreyev became CEO.[18] OJSC Gazprom Promgaz was renamed to JSC Gazprom Promgaz (Russian: АО "Газпром промгаз").[4] The company projected the general schemes for gas supply of South Ossetia[19][20] and Armenia.[21]
