On February 14, the Board of Directors of Sibir Energy adopted a resolution to reduce the company's share capital by 86.25 mln. shares (22.39%). Affiliated to the Moscow government, Central Fuel Company (Tsentralnaya Toplivnaya Kompaniya, TsTK) took a decision to withdraw membership in Sibir Energy.

Consequently, Gazprom Neft becomes a sole shareholder in Sibir Energy starting from February 15. TsTK will receive compensation for the previously held block of shares in Sibir Energy in the amount of $740 mln.
