RNG Group and the Lensk District administration in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) have launched a five-year partnership.

It will support the district’s long-term development and cover a wide range of areas, from social and environmental initiatives to culture, education, sport, healthcare and agriculture.

Several projects are already lined up for 2026 and 2027. One of them is a new Lensk District welcome sign on the border with neighbouring Mirninsky District.

The Company has funded improvements to the main entrance at Secondary General School No. 9 named after R.V. Lonkunov, Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

The work included a complete overhaul of the steps and new non-slip surfacing.

The Company made transport available to deliver building materials for repairs to the home of a veteran in the village of Syuldyukar, Mirninsky District, Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

The request came from the Mirninsky District administration; they contacted the Company when the materials needed to be moved from Mirny to the village.

RNG has worked closely with the local authorities for many years. The partnership includes ongoing support for residents across the district in a wide range of areas.

Students and staff at the Ust-Kut Institute of Water Transport now have access to upgraded facilities after RNG Snabzhenie funded a major refresh of the Institute’s service complex.

Much of the equipment there had become outdated and was due for replacement. Following a request from the Institute, RNG Snabzhenie funded new kitchen equipment, dining-room furniture and appliances used for day-to-day maintenance.

A new helipad has opened in Svetly, with RNG helping get the site ready for use. The Company supplied crushed stone and sent in equipment at the request of the local authorities.

The new helipad is now up and running. The first helicopter touched down on 16 September, carrying Aisen Nikolaev, Head of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). He travelled to Svetly for the commissioning of the fourth generating unit at the Svetlinskaya Hydroelectric Power Plant, which supplies power to local communities and mining operations across the region.

RNG is contributing more than RUB 3.5 million to The Red Horseman, a new production being developed with the Trust Fund for Future Generations of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The Red Horseman will premiere at the D.K. Sivtsev-Suorun Omolloon State Opera and Ballet Theatre in spring 2027.

For first-graders at Secondary General School No. 9 named after R.V. Lonkunov in Tas-Yuryakh, Mirninsky District, the first day this September came with a welcome surprise from the Company.

RNG provided every first-grader with a school backpack, a shoe bag and classroom essentials ahead of the new academic year.

Our dear colleagues, partners, and friends!

Happy Oil and Gas Industry Workers Day!

I wish you every success in your work, as well as good health and all the very best for the future.

This year, second- and third-year students from the Ust-Kut Institute of Water Transport joined RNG Snabzhenie crews for practical training. Eight cadets studying to become motormen and helmsmen have been working aboard the Boyets, Vitimets, Morion and Viktoriya-1.

The cadets were given real responsibilities from the outset and quickly settled into day-to-day work on board. Practical experience, combined with guidance from senior crew members, has helped them build the skills needed to work on modern river vessels.

RNG has provided another round of practical support for the settlement of Tas-Yuryakh in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), supplying the materials needed to prepare the site for a new rural health clinic.

The request came from the Mirninsky District administration and Mirny Central District Hospital. Over the weekend, around 300 cubic metres of rock fill—roughly 20 tipper-truck loads—were delivered to the site, allowing groundwork to move ahead.

Once completed, the clinic will add an important new piece of social infrastructure to Tas-Yuryakh.
