The concept of the Russian Far East gas industry strategy: mission and vision

In non-stationary economic conditions, being one of the most promising macroregions of Russia and despite the existing problems, the Far Eastern Federal District possesses all the resource and technology potential essential for a breakthrough in socioeconomic development. In the Far East the potential driver of development can be presented by the gas industry on the functioning and development of which is concentrated the entire range of interests (national, public, regional, industrial, corporate and international), and which possesses a number of large-scale strategic opportunities. In case the disclosed opportunities are realized through separate projects the effect may be only of the localized and short-term character. Thus, the approach should be complex and imply the development and further implementation of a full-scale industrial strategy integrated into the general system of strategies. Doe to this, the purpose of the article is to systematize the findings of the strategic analysis of the Far East gas industry and using it as the basis for creating the concept of the industriial strategy. According to this, the author builds up the concept of the mission and the vision of the strategy for the gas industry of the Russian Far East and provides a detailed description of the strategic priorities with their resulting objectives and basic effects of the public and economic efficiency of their implementation.
