The Russia-Vietnam Joint Venture – Vietsovpetro[3] (VSP; [4]Vietnamese: Liên doanh Việt – Nga Vietsovpetro, lit. 'Viet-Russo Joint venture Vietsovpetro', [5]Russian: Совместное российско-вьетнамское предприятие «Вьетсовпетро», romanized: Sovmestnoye rossiysko-v'yetnamskoye predpriyatiye «V'yetsovpetro», lit. 'Joint Russian-Vietnamese venture «Vietsovpetro»') is a joint Russia -Vietnamese enterprise for oil and gas exploration headquartered in Vung Tau, Vietnam.[6] According to the VNR500 (Top 500) ranking, Vietsovpetro was Vietnam's 8th largest company.[7][8]

It was established in 1981 under an inter-governmental agreement between the JSC Zarubezhneft of the Soviet Union (later inherited by the Russian Federation) and Vietnam's state-owned Petrovietnam, with each side holding half of stake.[9]

On 10 December 2010, VietsovPetro agreed to extend its cooperation with JSC Zarubezhneft for 20 years until 2030. As per the new arrangement, PetroVietnam will hold a 51% stake in the joint venture with the Russian company holding 49%.[9]
