The world's largest oil and gas companies have already announced their withdrawal from Russian gas production projects. Naftogaz is encouraging the rest to follow the example of the "big four" oil service companies - Schlumberger, Weatherford, Halliburton, and Baker Hughes - as well as suppliers of technology and equipment.

This is stated in a press release.

Quote: "The withdrawal of international companies from Russian projects will significantly weaken the technological potential of Russia's oil and gas industry."

According to Naftogaz, this is really important not only for the defence of Ukraine, against which Russia has waged an unprecedented war, but also for the safety of the whole of Europe.
