In CIS, the production of butyl alcohols is established only in Russia, where four manufacturers - Gazprom Neftekhim Salavat JSC, Sibur-Khimprom CJSC, Angarsk Petrochemical Company JSC, and Nevinnomyssky Azot JSC – generate the output sufficient to meet the domestic demand and provide the foreign market for n-butanol and isobutanol.

In the total butyl alcohols output in Russia made up 280,500 tonnes. Gazprom Neftekhim Salavat JSC produced 52% of this. Exports exceed 75% of the aggregate output of butyl alcohols annually. The situation, however, is to change in the years to come. Moreover, Russia is currently implementing a highly promising project that will help it become the world’s largest manufacturer of biobutanol.
