Russian fuel and energy complex digitalization market. TAdviser 2024 review

In 2024, several new stable "aggregate states" could be observed on the digitalization market of the fuel and energy complex of Russia: an explosive increase in the introduction of artificial intelligence, an increase in the role of the state in stimulating the development of domestic technologies for the fuel and energy complex, the end of the transition period, which began in 2022. Read more about all trends in a new piece produced by TAdviser Market Intelligence and Reviews in conjunction with industry experts.

In 2024, the digitalization market of the fuel and energy complex of the Russian Federation fully adapted to new conditions, sanctions, and the "demarche" of foreign vendors. The market is rated as stable, growing with confidence. Businesses are moving from reactive behavior to long-term investment.

The stage of "classical digitalization" is completed. Key players strive to optimize costs against the background of significant changes in the economy, invest in the creation and implementation of predictive analytics information systems. The main point of development is the distributed monitoring of all fuel and energy complex components for continuous control.

Certain successes were noted in import substitution. For example, Russian databases and server operating systems almost completely replaced foreign ones, new generation domestic firewalls appeared, and a testing laboratory for certification of hardware and software systems for critical information infrastructure began to operate on the basis of Rosatom.

Cybersecurity systems were subjected to new challenges. So, at the end of 2024, a wave of DDoS attacks hit the websites of fuel and energy complex companies in the Siberian, North-West and Volga federal districts.

In 2024, 69 companies provided TAdviser with data on revenue from the implementation of IT projects in the fuel and energy sector. SIGMA is the clear leader among them: the company's revenue amounted to over ₽18,7 billion, an increase of almost 30% over the year. The top three also included Innostage and UTSB.

A number of technological trends noted by experts in assessing the processes that took place in the fuel and energy complex digitalization market continued to influence in 2024. As key trends, we can indicate complex import substitution, the development of platform solutions, the large-scale use of artificial intelligence technologies, machine learning and big data analytics. Regularly updated cybersecurity requirements oblige to strengthen work to protect enterprises. The development of digital twins remained relevant - the creation of virtual models of physical objects for monitoring and optimizing their work.

By the beginning of 2025, new technological trends were also outlined, including microservice architecture, the introduction of specialized operator tools and a focus on cross-platform solutions. Activity has increased in the direction of building corporate data management systems entirely on the Russian solution stack.

According to the TAdviser project database, among the various classes of IT solutions in fuel and energy companies (power, oil and gas industries), enterprise resource planning systems () ERP and systems () are most in demand. electronic document management EDMS

For each class of IT systems implemented in certain industries, the TAdviser database allows you to identify the most popular solutions and vendors of these products. 1C, Directum, ELMA - these Russian companies develop products that are most often implemented in the most popular classes of IT systems in the Russian power, in the oil and gas industry.
