Environmental Report<br />
The reduction of waste water discharge into surface water bodies across <strong>Gazprom</strong> Group was<br />
primarily due to reduced process water consumption at <strong>Gazprom</strong> energoholding’s companies.<br />
<strong>Gazprom</strong> Group implemented a range of environmental protection measures focusing on sustainable<br />
use of water and addressing pollution of water bodies. In 2014, 102 waste water treatment<br />
systems were put into service, with an aggregate capacity of 1.37 mmcm per day. 7 water recycling<br />
systems, with an aggregate capacity of 547,510 m 3 per day, were installed.<br />
The volume of waste generation was up by 137,700 thousand tonnes due to increased drilling<br />
waste at <strong>Gazprom</strong> neft Group and higher volumes of bottom ash waste at OAO OGK-2 as it<br />
increased the share of coal in its fuel mix.<br />
<strong>Gazprom</strong> Group’s subsidiaries and affiliates operating abroad are also conscious of their environmental<br />
footprint.<br />
