The purpose is to establish the current state of affairs in the budget system and determine the relevance of the current tax policy in relation to oil and gas revenues in the context of economic sanctions. Methods. The study employs methods of comparative analysis and generalization of budget system documents. Results. The paper established the need for reliable forecasting within the entire budget system, where oil and gas revenues still play an important role in ensuring balance; for reviewing the main taxation instruments of the oil and gas industry for oil refining and petrochemical industry development. It determined that the price of Urals crude oil is one of the key instruments for generating income and ensuring the balance of the entire budget system, the price of Urals crude oil and the ruble exchange rate do not fully depend on government actions, replenishment of the National Welfare Fund is difficult, access to external sources of financing the country's deficit is limited, and raising funds through domestic loans seems to be quite expensive. Conclusions. Reliable forecasting at the level of the entire budget system and reduction of oil and gas dependence are of particular importance. It is crucial to adjust the articles of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation and the Law of the Russian Federation "On Customs Tariff" related to oil and gas revenues.
