Soviet Oil Industry Restructured In the early 1990s, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, in Russia began privatisation, because government did not have enought money to keep all plants and factories that were nationalised in the 1930th -1950th. . At this time were formed Russian gangsterism and mafia. People from government and their friends were the first who began to buy property. The same situation was in the Russian oil industry - it consisted of hundreds of stand-alone state-owned entities, each with a narrow area of specialization, limited geographic reach, and specific economic interests.

Many of these were inefficient, unprofitable, and overstaffed, and survived only by virtue of continued state support. The Russian government set out to fundamentally restructure the sector to make it viable in a global market environment by combining groups of existing entities and corporatizing them to create vertically integrated oil companies. Thus it was that YUKOS was founded on April 15, 1993 by Decree No. 354 of the Russian government. First Fully Privatized Russian Oil Company In 1995 structure YUKOS` included association "Samarneftegas", new marketing enterprises, line of research institutes.
