Abstract
The article is a continuation of several publications by the authors in the journal "Issues of Risk Analysis". It is aimed at identifying the dynamics of environmental responsibility of oil and gas industry facilities in the Russian Arctic using the rating approach for 2014—2019. The results of the rating analysis revealed the general and differentiated dynamics of greening of the Arctic oil and gas sector enterprises in three sections: management, operational and information. The leaders of the environmental rating were identified: Sakhalin energy (Sakhalin-2), LUKOIL, Gazprom, and Zarubezhneft.
