For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 net sales of gas to Europe and other countries increased by RUB 42,364 million, or 4%, to RUB 1,068,815 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This change was primarily due to increase of average realized prices in RUB terms (including customs duties) by 9%, which was partially compensated by decrease in volumes of gas sold by 3%, or 3.4 bcm.
Net sales of gas to FSU countries decreased by RUB 72,964 million, or 16%, to RUB 385,644 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease of sales in this segment is explained by the decrease of volumes of gas sold by 23%, or 14.6 bcm, which was partially compensated by the increase of the average realized prices in RUB terms (including customs duties) by 20%.
Net sales of gas in the domestic market increased by RUB 5,852 million, or 1%, to RUB 508,123 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This is explained primarily by the increase in the average domestic price for gas by 7%, which was partially compensated by the decrease of volumes of gas sold by 6%, or 11.5 bcm.
Net sales of refined products increased by RUB 155,860 million, or 22%, to RUB 873,583 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase was due to the increase of prices for refined products and increase of volumes sold.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2012 net sales of crude oil and gas condensate increased by RUB 35,831 million, or 22%, to RUB 200,269 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in net sales of crude oil primarily resulted from Gazprom neft activities: net sales of crude oil increased by RUB 34,211 million, or 26%, to RUB 167,579 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 mainly due to the increase in oil prices and volumes of oil sold.
Net electric and heat energy sales increased by RUB 6,200 million, or 3%, to RUB 243,745 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in electric and heat energy sales was mainly caused by expanding of Gazprom Group’s scope of consolidation, which was partially compensated by decrease in revenues from electric and heat energy sales due to reduction of electricity prices at the day-ahead market and decrease in sales volumes of electric and heat energy during six months ended June 30, 2012.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2012 net gas transportation sales increased by RUB 7,813 million, or 9%, to RUB 90,314 million. The increase in net gas transportation sales was primarily due to the increase in volumes of gas transportation services rendered to independent gas suppliers.
Operating expenses increased by RUB 372,444 million, or 18%, to RUB 2,491,733 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
Major item in the total amount of operating expenses is «Purchased gas and oil» which increased by RUB 38,393 million, or 6%. Cost of purchased gas decreased by RUB 35,030 million, or 8%. This decrease mainly relates to the decrease in volumes of gas purchased and prices for gas purchased from third parties outside the Russian Federation. The cost of purchased oil included in the cost of purchased gas and oil increased by RUB 73,423 million, or 39%, and amounted to RUB 259,932 million in the nine months period ended September 30, 2012 in comparison with RUB 186,509 million in the nine months period ended September 30, 2011 due to increase both in volumes and prices of oil purchased.
The increase in operating expenses was mostly influenced by the following items: «Taxes other than on income» (increase by RUB 123,811 million), «Depreciation» (increase by RUB 40,463 million), «Transit of gas, oil and refined products» (increase by RUB 40,062 million),«Staff costs» (increase by RUB 38,137 million), «Materials» (increase by RUB 23,739 million), «Cost of goods for resale, including refined products» (increase by RUB 9,333 million).
