Dossier:

First Abramovich - for the whole year - gave all exports of "Sibneft" to the company "KomiTEK-Moscow", which was led by his old friend Gregory Berezkin. "KomiTEK-Moscow" was famous at that time for the highest percentage of "shrinkage and scattering" during the transportation of oil. "Shrinkage and scattering" gave a good pellet in the pockets of exporters. Clustered capital at the first stage later went on buying out a controlling stake of "Sibneft". In autumn 1996, some of CJSC "Sins" and "Oil Rifaina" consistently bought 34 percent of "Sibneft".

On September, 15, 1999, when Berezkin organized Russia's first merger of two Russian oil companies NK KomiTEK and LUKOIL. According to the media, this merger was part of a multi-pass operation on the redistribution of the Russian oil industry. The operation was accompanied by the takeover of Transneft by riot police under the direction of Semyon Weinstock (then vice-president of LUKOIL), the transfer to Roman Abramovich of a controlling stake in Purneftegaz and getting a major monetary compensation by ubiquitous Boris Berezovsky.

Gregory Berezkin was just a pawn in this game. For properly organized vote of KomiTEK shareholders, he received 120 million dollars. The largest oil and gas assets in the Komi Republic, the purchase of which immediately increased the reserves of Lukoil by 25%, was sold out by Berezkin for 500 million dollars, an amount ridiculous even for the dashing time.

Now let us talk about personalities. In the corridors of power are worn rumor that sounds most different names. From the president of "Transneft" Semen Weinstock, who has allegedly been made a formal offer to head the Fuel and Energy Ministry, to well known in the narrow circles Chairman of the Board of CJSC "Evroseverneft" Gregory Berezkin. And if Weinstock, according to the same rumors, rests with all the limbs, just to decline the offer politely, then ... Berezkin is some kind of thinking.

And there are some things to think about. According to the "MK" powerful rears stand for Berezkin. At one time he was considered an active member of the team, Abramovich - Berezovsky. It was his company that Roman Abramovich - the whole year! - Gave all exports of "Sibneft" at the time. Times were truly golden: the highest percentage of "shrinkage and scattering" of oil gave a good pellet in the pockets of exporter.

Later, sensing the weakening of the positions of his friends Gregory Berezkin went over to Anatoly Chubais, in which he found not less powerful patron. It is quite possible that Anatoly Borisovich, concerned about the recent "attacks" on the president of RAO "UES", is now pushing Berezkin in the Fuel and Energy Ministry.

On the French Riviera ended Russian secular season. A hundreds of Russian entrepreneurs with a monthly income of $ 500 thousand attended here during summer. As well as a few hundreds of their less affluent friends of creative professions.

... And now, in fact, about those, who were vacationing on the Cote d'Azur more actively. Vice-president of the company "Norilsk Nickel" Dmitry Zelenin and his wife Alla invited his friends to a rather chamber party "Samogon-party" in Saint-Tropez, in the village of Gassin, which is located in a mountainous area.

The party was stylized in Russian folk festivals, followed by vigorous disco. Many well-known entrepreneurs arrived there: head of "Norilsk Nickel" Mikhail Prokhorov, businessman Alexander Mamut, a farmer Sergei Lisowski, the governor of Chukotka Roman Abramovich, president of the company "UST" Gregory Berezkin, head of the company "World Class" Olga Sloutskaya, student Ksenia Sobchak and her friend, St. Petersburg socialite girl Ulyana Zeitlina.

Annual Cup of millionaires also turned into a children's party. Organizers are considering for a long time, if not to rename it into billionaires Cup and the representativeness declines year-on-year. Millionaire in fact can now consider himself every owner of "three-room" on the Arbat. Oligarchs themselves almost did not participate in the Cup, but brought their children. Among the participants were two daughters of one of the largest power engineering Gregory Berezkin and daughter Anastasia of Vladimir Potanin. This year she, however, took only the second place - in summer Nastya injured her foot on the aqua bike and still is not fully recovered from the injury. By the way, unlike other siblings, she has never appeared in nightclubs of Courchevel.

The example of Potanin followed many other colleagues in the former social life. Once the king of parties, a businessman, and now Tver Governor Dmitry Zelenin travels in the Alps exclusively with three children, which he puts on skis. But the victory of his daughter Sonya in the millionaires Cup brought the greatest joy in this season of Courchevel to energy magnate Gregory Berezkin.

In 1993, Berezkin met Roman Abramovich, who was then engaged in the Komi oil and gas business. In the second half of 1994 shareholders of Komineft, Ukhta Refinery, and Kominefteprodukt approved a merge under the holding of KomiTEK. Komineft already had a high status of special exporter and KomiTEK had the status of a government agent for the oil of Komi region, Arkhangelsk region, and Nenets Autonomous District. Business relations between Berezkin and Abramovich withstood the test of time. In 1996 -1997 Berezkin headed Komi TEK - Moscow (KTM sales structure of KomiTEK). Berezkin’s team worked directly for Sibneft, helping to establish new marketing strategy. First of all, Roman Abramovich - for a year - gave all exports of Sibneft to KTM. Gregory Berezkin brought waste coefficient in the preparation of oil for transportation up to 0.88. That is, KTM headed by Berezkin had a loss of 12% of all exported oil (usually this figure does not exceed 4-6%). Capital raised thanks to the efforts of Berezkin later was spent to purchase by Roman Abramovich and Boris Berezovsky of a controlling stake in Sibneft.

Since October 2003, a number of Gazprom bodies began buying electricity on the wholesale market through Rusenergosbyt controlled by Berezkin. As a result, the cost of electricity production for the gas monopoly rose by 60%. Moreover, power tariffs during that period rose by only 17% and Gazprom has extracted only 3% more gas. As a result of Berezkin’s mediation the increase of costs for Gazprom amounted to more than 125 million dollars.

"Osnova Telecom", a minority co-owner of which is subordinated of the Ministry of Defense "Voentelekom", already in mid-August can get a rate for the construction of a federal 4G network out of the competition, in spite of the protests of MTS, "MegaFon" and "VimpelCom". But among the contenders for the frequency are not only "Osnova Telecom", but also "Rusenergotelekom" (RET), a joint venture of "Rostelecom" (25%) and a group UST of Gregory Berezkin (75%). Thus, the dispute between the Ministry of Defense and Ministry of Communications may end with a compromise: the military will receive part of the 2.3-2.4 GHz, and 2.5-2.7 GHz will depart to RET. Wherein a  "big three" will be left without 4G.

Kommersant, 28.07.2010

 

In 2010, the conflict flared around the Ministry of Communications after the leaders of the MTS, VimpelCom, and MegaFon sent a letter addressed to Prime Minister Vladimir Putin with a request to bring order to the distribution of frequencies. According to representatives of the so-called Big Three, the frequencies for 4G (technology LTE) were distributed with no competition and in favour of the “newly established small companies.”

The "small companies", to which Ministry of Communications officials promised the licenses bypassing the competitive bid, included Osnova Telecom and Rusenergotelekom (RET). RET was set up several months before the competition and is owned by Gregory Berezkin, one of the most controversial and reserved businessmen in Russia.

On July, 30, 2010 Roskomnadzor unexpectedly withdrew its own order on the allocation of a number of frequencies to Scartel. Scartel promoted a well-known brand Yota in Moscow and several regions and used the very same frequency 2.5-2.7 GHz for that, which were promised now to RET.

Ministry of Communications announced that the decision was related to the check, during which they revealed violations of the law "by some officials." But most experts attributed this decision of the Ministry of Communications to the fact that negotiations of Gregory Berezkin about buying Scartel ended in failure. Maybe had Scartel management given Berezkin their company, there would have been no "irregularities" found in the licenses obtaining process.

Reporters quickly found out that under "small companies", which bypass tender procedures Communications Ministry officials have promised the coveted license, is implied "Osnova Telecom" and "Rusenergotelekom" ("RET").

The first of these was registered only 3 June 2010 with the participation of "Voentelekom" - the company under the Ministry of Defense, and the second established a few months ago and, as it turns out, it belong to Gregory Berezkin - one of the most controversial and closed Russian businessmen.

Despite the appeals and requests of the federal mobile market's main players, the ministry, apparently, is not going to cancel its "opaque" decisions. According to mass media reports, a conciliation meeting of the State Commission for Radio Frequencies (SCR) is scheduled on August 11, after which the license for 4G will be able to go to companies that do not have any experience or qualified personnel or own funds. Thus, according to the newspaper "Kommersant", the license for the frequency 2.3-2.4 GHz band in 39 regions will have "Rostelecom" (which won them in spring of 2010), other frequencies in this range will get "Based Telecom", and frequency 2.5-2.7 GHz will depart to "RET".

In 2007 his connections in the Federal State Unitary Enterprise Water Canal them. Moscow Berezkin received contracts for the lease of two plots of land. It was 58 hectares in a protected area on the banks of the Moskva River (near the village of Rechnik). According to estimates of market analysts 1 hectare of land was worth 15-20 million dollars and Berezkin’s company had to pay the government only 400 rubles a year.

After receiving such amazing contracts, employees of Berezkin took to immediate eviction of Muscovites, whose homes were near the rented area. Berezkin planned to build up this side of Moskva River with elite houses. But the residents of besieged houses sent a letter to Viktor Zubkov, telling about threats and blackmail by the new contractors, and soon the ambiguous contracts were terminated.

Berezkin had many projects; most of them are associated with state-owned companies - and were built on the same scheme: Berezkin came with the idea, became a partner, and carried out the project himself. In conversations with "Vedomosti" he is often referred as the "seller of ideas", but he replies: "I'm not a salesperson, I am an implementer of ideas." Not all projects were obtained, but the score is in the favor of Berezkin: Forbes estimates his financial state at $ 700 million. Berezkin himself doesn't comment this numeral and modestly consider himself to a "middle business".

... Berezkin angered a bunch of businessmen, including quite influential, in business of which he was trying to integrate with the reference to the president's orders, says the source of Medvedev's entourage. "Talks about some of my special relationship with the president - is a fantasy" - retorted Berezkin. Presidential press secretary Natalya Timakova declined to comment.

In 1994 Berezkin became Deputy General Director of "Komineft" (production - about 3 million tons per year; had a special exporter status). During this period, he met with Roman Abramovich, who also had a business in Komi. It is not clear, how it happened: all sources of "Vedomosti" remember them partners already, all in one voice say that Berezkin was larger oil trader than Abramovich. If this is true, it is logical that in 1996-1997 trader "KomiTEK - Moscow” headed by Berezkin, exported oil of "Sibneft".

But then between Berezkin and Abramovich ran a cat, says a former employee of the businessman. ... The deposit was 10% of the initial package price - $ 10.1 million, an additional $ 189.9 million the participant was supposed to deposit in the account of the pledgee (two years before the state laid the package at the auction). "KomiTEK" received money from the structures of Abramovich, but officially it has not been formalized. Berezkin eventually returned the money, but not immediately. This story said "Vedomosti" the man, who worked at that time on Berezkin and participate in conflict resolution, and confirmed a businessman, close to Abramovich. ...

By the time Berezkin himself became the owner of a major oil company - the same "KomiTEK". ... To solve problems with "Tebukneft" finally became able much later - and not Berezkin, but "Lukoil" who bought "KomiTEK" in 1999 for their shares (amount of the transaction was approximately $ 500 million, including $ 200 million of debt). ...

 "After the deal with the "Lukoil" I had a lot of money at that time - says Berezkin. - But I do not become a rentier; I already had a good experience in industrial business management. [The head of RAO "UES of Russia" Anatoly] Chubais took the first steps towards the reform of electric power industry. It was clear that he needed people; I came to him and asked in the management of "Kolenergo"....

In 2002, at a meeting of the Board was considered the report of "ESN Energo" about the results of management, and the board found them unsatisfactory. According to performance indicators (accident, conventional fuel consumption and occupational injuries) there was a negative dynamics. A company's financial position has improved because "ESN Energo" raised tariffs to consumers in more than two times. After the board meeting, continue sources of "Vedomosti", RAO received a complaint from the trade union "Kolenergo". It said that the workers are forced to sell the shares. Subsequently, it was discovered that structures of "ESN Energo" collected about 10% of "Kolenergo", and then sold it to structures of "Norilsk Nickel".

"Vedomosti" asked to comment on the information of the former deputy chairman of RAO Michael Abyzov. He said that such facts have taken place. A former top manager of "Norilsk Nickel" confirmed that Berezkin helped his company to buy a package of "Kolenergo".

Berezkin came with two proposals to “Gazprom": one - to buy up shares of RAO UES, then during the reform of electric power industry to exchange them on the assets, the other - to supply the gas monopoly with cheap electricity, says former deputy chairman of "Gazprom" Alexander Ryazanov. Berezkin have had a good relationship with the chairman of "Gazprom" Board of Directors (since October 2003 - the head of the presidential administration), Dmitry Medvedev, and he advised the Chairman of the board of the monopoly Alexei Miller to accept Berezkin and listen to him, remember the managers of "Gazprom". .

In 2004 Berezkin began to sell electricity to another state-owned companies - Russian Railways (2003 Railways spent on electricity for more than 30 billion rubles). As in the case with "Gazprom", the contract went to "daughter" of UST - "Rusenergosbyt" - without competition. ... Rostelecom" and the Federal Grid Company (FGC), which is a minority shareholder of ESN, held negotiations on the establishment of a joint company" Rusenergotelekom". It was assumed, that "Rusenergotelekom" would build a single fiber-optic communication line network (fiber optic) for the Unified National Power Grid subjects. Such a scheme was discussed: "Rostelecom" will be the network operator and will get 25% in "Rusenergotelekom", the remaining 75% will take UST of Berezkin and FGS will simply rent to "Rusenergotelekom" its fiber-optic network (20 000 km). Such a distribution of shares is difficult to explain. However, in April, the head of "Energostroyinvest-Holding", a major contractor of FGC, Igor Jaroslavtsev, called in an interview with "Kommersant" a management of FGC a "junior business partners" of Berezkin.

Berezkin angered a bunch of businessmen, including quite influential, in business of which he was trying to integrate with the reference to the president's orders, says the source of Medvedev's entourage. "Talks about some of my special relationship with the president - is a fantasy" - retorted Berezkin.
