According to mail.ru, the oil and gas forum has first been included in 10 most frequently visited industry sites in the Russian Internet.  The active development of the project started early this summer when installation of advanced software was completed. Today, this is both the most frequently visited internet forum in the oil and gas industry and an industry community with branches on Odnoklassniki, LiveJournal, Vkontakte and other blog servers. Experts forecast that before the end of the year www.oilforum.ru will become one of the most frequently visited industry communities of the Russian Internet.  Members of the community are oil and gas professionals in West Siberia, Komi Republic, Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, and former USSR republic (Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan).
