The magazine has been published for a long time in Russian, and distributed in CIS countries, but the decision to enter the international market was influenced by reforms in the Russian power industry, in the oil and gas complex, and in housing and public utilities, as well as by the active developments in the gas turbine industry of Russia and Ukraine. The Russian domestic market already has a wide range of gas turbine models for power generation and mechanical drive. CIS powerplant engineering is entering the market with a full range of equipment and provides a number of competing products in certain power ranges. Most of these products may not be competitive in the traditional markets for international corporations from the USA, Japan, and EU countries, but Russian industry can offer equipment which is acceptable in developing countries. The main objective is to provide information to various English-speaking readers interested in promoting their products at the Russian market and looking for Russian manufacturers of power equipment.

GTT magazine studies the markets for energy equipment - the power industry, the oil and gas production and transmission industries, the housing and utilities infrastructure. We analyse the changing situation in these branches, both at the legislative level and in terms of business restructuring - mergers, acquisitions, cooperation agreements and diversification. Growth in its investment potential is opening huge opportunities for the power engineering industry. We are constantly monitoring the gas turbine market and sense that revolutionary changes are round the corner.

Special attention is devoted to analysis of the gas turbine market, to the legal framework of the power industry, to housing and utilities infrastructure, and to the oil and gas industries. We will dwell on the issues of power project financing, risks and insurance. We also show political changes in the sphere of power industry and gas transmission as well as changes taking place at RAO UES, Gazprom, oil, metallurgy and chemical industries and at customs.

The English-language magazine introduces the Russian market for European and American manufacturers as well as Russian companies for Middle East and Asia. Along with analytical articles about Russia and CIS market, articles about gas extraction and transportation in Russia, materials illustrating the situation and prospectives in power and heat industry as well as other branches where power facilities are required that is utilities, metallurgy, oil extraction and petrochemical industry we publish articles about Russian manufacturers and their equipment that we find interesting for the countries like India, China, Pakistan, etc.

We will show to the equipment manufacturers how the market is changing that would help them to form an effective marketing policy. They will be able to address the customer, learn about their competitors, their weak and strong points and get acquainted with Russian norms, laws, peculiarities of international cooperation. We are studying the process of choosing equipment and production in different industries. They will be able to evaluate obstacles and risks associated with entering the new market: technical, technological, red-tape, economic and customs aspects. We shall present the market needs depending on climate conditions, patterns of using equipment.

For the equipment users we characterise the products of various manufacturers from different points of view: technical, economic and operational. We present the experience of different manufacturers, their projects and services. Thus they will be able to choose the equipment using a complex approach on a number of parameters. We dwell on different power plant patterns offered by Russian designing companies analysing their advantages and disadvantages.
