three years in real terms, with these reduction targets to be used as a key performance<br />

indicator in assessing corporate and management performance<br />

(subparagraph 1f, List of Instructions No. Pr-846 of 2 April 2011 by D. A. Medvedev, Russian<br />

President)<br />

In its Order No. 86 of 30 March 2012, OAO <strong>Gazprom</strong> approved its Methodology for Calculating<br />

the Ratio of Reduction of Procurement Cost per Unit of Output. The Methodology takes account<br />

of the approaches recommended by the Russian Ministry for Energy. Final cost cutbacks are<br />

consolidated into three groups:<br />

— inventory procurement costs;<br />

— procurement costs related to core operations;<br />

— procurement costs related to investment.<br />

The resulting ratio calculated under subparagraph 1f of List of Instructions No. Pr-846 has<br />

been accepted as one of KPIs to assess OAO <strong>Gazprom</strong>’s management performance.<br />

Reduction of procurement costs related to investment<br />

(subparagraph 1f, List of Instructions No. Pr-846 of 2 April 2011 by D. A. Medvedev,<br />

The implementation of the instruction has decreased procurements costs incurred under investment<br />

projects completed in 2014 by 11.37%.<br />
