An increase in gas fractionation and polymerisation capacities, integration of power generation assets and construction of the new ZapSibNeftekhim complex are set to play up the role of the Tobolsk Production Site for SIBUR. Hence it has been decided to assign the Tobolsk Production Site a status of a standalone business unit similar to a Division. This business unit is headed by Konstantin Belkin, SIBUR’s Management Board member and Managing Director of the Tobolsk Production Site.

The Plastics and Organic Synthesis Division and the Synthetic Rubbers Division have been merged into one business unit named Plastics, Elastomers and Organic Synthesis Division. Pavel Lyakhovich, SIBUR’s Management Board member and Managing Director, will continue being in charge of this Division.

The Hydrocarbons Division has been reorganised to streamline production assets performance management. SiburTyumenGas, formerly part of the Hydrocarbons Division, now directly reports to the Company’s COO. Uralorgsintez has become part of the Plastics, Elastomers and Organic Synthesis Division.
