The Company presented a video series showing that most common things around us, such as smartphones, laptops, medicine, some clothes, et al. are made of oil products and that total refusal to use oil will lead to a meltdown and harm global industrialization. The videos' coverage exceeded 300 million viewers.
LUKOIL Walks the Planet – another project, devoted to the Company's 30th anniversary – became the best campaign in Western Asia for promoting tourism, mountain climbing, and amateur sports. The project consisted of LUKOIL workers climbing the highest mountain peaks of Russia and Europe (including Elbrus) under the Company's flag.
