Mishustin announced the complete transition to domestic software in the oil and gas sector

Russia has completely switched to its own software in the oil and gas and petrochemical sectors and by 90% in many other industries. This was announced on May 18 by Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

"In geological exploration, ecology, electric power industry, oil and gas and petrochemical industries, and subsurface use, all the most important management and production processes are already almost completely provided with domestic software," he said, speaking at the Digital Industry of Industrial Russia conference.

The Head of government also noted that in aviation, engine and shipbuilding, general and railway engineering, light industry, transport, logistics, trade, finance, construction and housing and communal services, the provision rate of Russian software exceeds 90%. He called this a good indicator, but noted that there are still areas where work needs to be done in this direction.
