Tyumen Oil and Gas Forum Gains International Status, Official Says
Regional governor says new international status will draw more foreign partners as forum focuses on Russian industrial development and energy security
The Tyumen Oil and Gas Forum (TNF) has been granted international status, a move officials say will expand participation from foreign partners, according to a report by TASS, the Russian state news agency.
Alexander Moor, identified in the report as a regional official, said the forum's primary objective remains unchanged despite the new designation. "TNF's main goal remains to achieve practical results for the development of Russian industry and ensure energy security," Moor was quoted as saying by TASS.
The report did not provide further details on when the international status was granted, which countries or companies might participate as a result, or the scope of the forum's upcoming activities. TASS did not specify additional context regarding the forum's history or prior editions.
TNF has previously served as a venue for discussions related to Russia's oil and gas sector and industrial policy, though the source did not elaborate on the forum's schedule or agenda following the change in status.
