Abstract
The paper analyzes the current trends and future activities of the leading Russian oil and gas companies aimed at decarbonization and reduction of carbon footprint. Carbon emissions of oil and gas companies can be cut primarily through implementation of new technologies with lower energy intensity and carbon footprint, application of renewable energy sources (including those in combination with energy storage) for power supply, industrial waste recycling (including treatment of greenhouse gases resulting from technological processes).
