application of this technology on the Russian market as well as the

Group. In particular, the objective is to quickly and comprehensively
generate synergies in the management and administration of business
operations. Additionally, the new Management Board aims to further

oil field service know-how in order to secure the company's
sustainable competitiveness in the future.

2015. The company, LLC "Petro Welt Technologies", short LLC
"Pe-We-Te" headquartered in Moscow, has the right to issue directives

procurement. This step is designed to serve as the basis for
generating synergies and ensuring the ongoing further development of
unified quality standards.
