Oil and gas are very important minerals for us. They not only become raw materials for the further production of various items. This is one of the instruments of the international market that directly affects the state of the country’s economy. Russia is a country that has quite large reserves of natural resources; such scale cannot be developed without a sufficient number of specialists. All of them should have their own holiday, thanks to which people will know more about the event. This holiday is celebrated on the first Sunday of autumn.
History of the holiday
This celebration became a memorable date back in 1980. This happened on the first of October. The Presidium of the Supreme Council decided that people related to gas should be additionally honored. This holiday was intended to increase the prestige of work. When the USSR collapsed, in Russia the day was preserved on its original terms.
Industrial oil production in Ukraine began in the 18th century, and already in 1909 2 million tons of oil were produced in the Carpathian region. The gas industry dates back to the commissioning of the Dashavskoye gas field and the construction of the first Dashava-Stry gas pipeline in 1924.
It is a special occasion for those villages where oil or gas is produced. For such places, this is one of the main holidays, because small settlements are almost completely involved in such work. A similar celebration is celebrated on the same day in Belarus, but the Belarusian people add workers in the fuel sector to the number of those involved. People also call this holiday Oilman's Day.
At the beginning of September, one of the most popular professional holidays is celebrated in Russia and other post-Soviet countries - Oil and Gas Industry Workers Day, which for short is also called Oilman's Day(Gazprom employees naturally call theirs professional holiday Gas Worker's Day).
When is Oil and Gas Workers Day celebrated?
Oilman's Day and Gasman's Day celebrated on the first Sunday of September, that is, in 2016, the professional holiday of those who work in this most important industry for Russia falls on September 4. In addition to Russia, this holiday is celebrated in Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova and Ukraine, whose gas communications were created within the framework of the unified gas transportation system of the USSR.
History of the holiday
Oil and Gas Industry Workers' Day was established by the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on August 28, 1965. The holiday was a reward for Soviet oil and gas workers for the successful development of the oil and gas potential of Western Siberia, in addition, it was timed to coincide with the centenary of the domestic oil and gas industry, which was celebrated in the USSR in 1964.
On their professional holiday, oil and gas workers receive congratulations and cash bonuses; concerts and receptions are held for all industry employees.
History of the domestic oil industry
Oil has been known to mankind since ancient times; at first it was used as fuel, but gradually more beneficial uses were found for it - from medicine to construction and the chemical industry. In ancient times, people used oil that independently reached the earth's surface from the depths, but gradually learned to extract it.
In Russia, oil was used for various purposes even in pre-Petrine times. In 1723, by order of Peter I, Baku oil was distilled in the main Moscow pharmacy for the production of medicines. In 1745, an Arkhangelsk merchant Fedor Pryadunov built the world's first oil refinery, where kerosene was produced from oil, which was used for lighting.
In 1823, in the Caucasus near the Mozdok fortress, serf peasants brothers Dubinins They also built an oil distillation plant, establishing the production of fuel oil for the first time in Russia.
It is believed that the birth of the domestic oil industry associated with the beginning of mechanical drilling of wells, the walls of which were secured with metal pipes. Such drilling was first started in 1864 in the valley of the Kudako River in the Kuban. Therefore, 1864 is considered to be the year of birth of the Russian oil industry.
The oil industry is one of the main branches of the domestic heavy industry, it includes exploration of oil and oil and gas fields, drilling of wells, production of oil and associated gas, as well as pipeline transportation of oil and gas. Oil and gas are the most important mineral resources for our country, and the sale of these raw materials is one of the most important sources of budget replenishment. The national currency is also tied to the price of oil, so the country’s welfare depends on how modern and efficient the Russian oil and gas industry is. The work of oil and gas workers is difficult and often dangerous, requiring serious knowledge, skills and experience, but it is prestigious and quite highly paid. The industry employs hundreds of thousands of people, many of whom work on a rotational basis in the difficult conditions of the Far North and Western Siberia.

It seems that modern man can do almost everything. He can move several thousand kilometers in less than eighty days, can go into space, can regulate the temperature in his home, can control and make huge mechanisms work, etc. However, all this would be impossible if in the world there were no people extracting and processing coal, gas and oil.
Oil holiday in the Russian Federation
It's no secret that the work of oil and gas workers is hard. In Russia it has always been highly valued. In 1980, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR supplemented the decree on memorable and holiday dates. On the first of October, Oil and Gas Workers' Day was included in it, and the first Sunday in September was set as the “Red” date.
Most likely, this day was chosen for a reason. After all, it is in the fall that the issue of fuel becomes especially acute. But you shouldn’t think that “black gold” (as oil is popularly called) is used only as fuel. Refined petroleum is used to make chemical raw materials and motor oil. It is the basis of detergents, various dyes, plastics and other things that people use in everyday life. Crude oil is used by builders (it is used to fix dune sands). It is thanks to the value and irreplaceability of this natural raw material that we celebrate this holiday every year. On September 7, Oil, Gas and Fuel Industry Workers' Day was celebrated in 2014.
Gas and oil play a significant role in the economy Russian Federation, therefore, the country’s leadership values the people who work for its benefit. Every year, congratulations on Oil and Gas Industry Day are heard from television screens, concerts and state receptions are held at which the best workers are awarded.
How to celebrate this holiday
Most often on this day, company management organizes corporate parties for their employees. The oil and gas industry holiday is often accompanied by a variety of sporting events in which both adults and children take part. Concerts are held in many cities, famous artists and singers are invited, and the lights of fireworks and fireworks bloom in the sky.

Pioneer gas worker
Since Oil and Fuel Industry Workers' Day is most often celebrated by the entire team, it is worth paying attention to the fact that the workforce of gas and oil companies is becoming increasingly younger. A traditional event is unlikely to please them. Young people, as always, are more attracted to humor, dynamism and a minimum of formality.
It falls at the very beginning of autumn, so you can organize a holiday in nature. For example, hold a holiday in pioneer style.
It is necessary to divide all the participants of the celebration into two teams, tie red ties around their necks and put them on their heads. The teams will take part in various competitions, and after active fun they will sit by the fire, prepare a camp lunch, sing with a guitar and dance on the lawn. Such a holiday will definitely leave all participants, regardless of age, with a lot of positive emotions.
Gold rush
Don't delay too much with the official part. After all the congratulations on Oil and Gas Industry Day have been heard, it is necessary to entertain the guests with something. For example, you can schedule themed party. One of the interesting ideas is a holiday in the style of the “gold rush” (after all, oil is called “black gold”). Let the hard-working oil workers become real “gold miners” for one evening. The boss needs to be given a sheriff's star, the chief accountant - a large wooden abacus, and the rest of the employees - wide-brimmed hats and scarves around their necks.
Organize competitions, joke, play - in general, fantasize.
By the way, this theme is also suitable for a corporate event for gas company employees (gas, as you know, is also called gold, only blue).
Where else is this holiday celebrated?
It is not only in the Russian Federation that coal, gas and oil are valued. Previously, the holiday of the oil and gas industry was celebrated by the entire union. A huge country has collapsed, but some countries continue to celebrate this day. In Moldova, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Armenia and Belarus, on the first Sunday in September they always congratulate their heroes of labor.
The oil industry, for better or worse, remains one of the pillars of the Russian economy. Oil and gas are the main sources of revenue for the country's budget from exports, so the profession of an oil worker cannot but be revered. Let's find out when Oilman's Day is celebrated in 2019, in which cities this holiday is one of the most important throughout the year.
When is Oilman's Day celebrated in 2019?
The full name of this holiday today sounds like this: Day of Oil, Gas and Fuel Industry Workers. Since its inception in 1980, Oil and Gas Worker's Day has been celebrated on the first Sunday in September. Thus, Oil Worker's Day is celebrated in 2019 September 1.
Since this holiday appeared in Soviet times, it was celebrated in all the republics that made up the Union. After the collapse of the USSR into independent states, the fate of Oil and Gas Worker Day in each of the new states turned out to be different.
So, in Russia and Kazakhstan nothing has changed, and the holiday remains in its place. So, on September 1, 2019, not only Russian, but also Kazakh oil and gas producers will celebrate Oilman’s Day. In Ukraine, this holiday was moved up by a week - in the neighboring country it was dated to the second Sunday of the month, so this year the date of its celebration is September 8. But in Azerbaijan, the holiday is not tied to a day off, and its date is always the same - September 20.
Let's return to Russia. The celebration of Oilman's Day in many cities that stand on oil and gas fields, and whose welfare mainly depends on local oil and gas fields, is an important city holiday. In terms of significance, Oilman's Day in such cities is comparable to City Day. Such places in our country include, for example, Surgut, Nefteyugansk, Urai, Lyantor, Almetyevsk and many others.
The main oil-producing region of Russia is Khanty-Mansiysk autonomous region. Behind it, with a large lag, are the Yamalo-Nenets District, Tatarstan, Orenburg, Sakhalin regions and other regions.
The traditions of celebrating Oilman's Day are basically similar to any other professional holiday. Celebratory concerts, awards for the best workers, bonuses, etc. are dedicated to this day. Unless oil companies can afford slightly larger celebrations with a good budget and the involvement of famous artists. You should look for specific information about what this holiday will be like in 2019 in a particular city in the local press and on local Internet portals in each city.
