Rosneft has been very close to the receiving of 60 billion rubles from the budget. The company is seeking the return of overpaid customs duties on oil on its asset Verkhnechonskneftegaz through court and the Energy Ministry hasn’t managed to convince the Supreme Court to suspend the decisions of previous courts that took the side of Rosneft. Now the company, if it applies for the receipt of money, will be able to get them for a month. But the Ministry of Energy still has a chance to convince the Supreme Court to review the case.
The Supreme Court refused the Ministry of Energy to suspend the decisions of the appellate and cassation courts in the dispute with Rosneft of overpaid customs duties on oil from the Verkhnechonskoye field in the Irkutsk region. The Ministry of Energy filed the relevant complaint on February 10. Now the Ministry is obliged to implement the decision of the courts and to issue Rosneft a certificate of confirmation of "special physical and chemical characteristics" of oil from this field. In turn, this will give Rosneft the right to claim a refund of the customs duties in the amount of 60 billion rubles.

The RF Ministry of Energy is in no hurry to recognize VChNG extraction.
At the request of the RF Ministry of Energy cassation court froze the execution of the decision the Court of Appeal, which supported the requirement of "Rosneft" on the recognition of backdating its eligibility on oil privileges at Verhnechonsk field. Now, before the completion of the lawsuit the company can not get the proper reference from the RF Ministry of Energy and begin the process of recovery of about 60 billion roubles of the overpaid export duty. Lawyers believe that the decision of the appeal court can tell us about the next turn of the case not in favor of "Rosneft".
