The state company "Rosneft" has developed its own strategy for the development of the Russian gas industry, which directly touches the key monopolist industry - the state company "Gazprom", RBK reports citing sources in the state-owned companies and draft documents.
"Rosneft" proposes to divide "Gazprom" into two companies: production and transportation. This reform of the company must be held in three stages: from 2015 to 2018 "Rosneft" proposes to introduce separate tariffs for pumping gas for export and within Russian gas transport system of "Gazprom", to abolish the monopoly of "Gazprom" on gas exports and liberalize LNG exports.
