It is very hard for Russia to compete with other countries since it is the second largest oil reserve and largest natural gas reserve countries. The only tool or business may be in the category of military weapons and aerospace technologies.
It would be extremely hard for Russia to compete.  As the largest oil and gas producer in the world, oil makes up a massive part of Russia's economy.  Although Russia has significant technological and industrial capabilities in other sectors (e.g. mining, forestry, agriculture, military equipment, aeropspace) it cannot be said that its economy is well-diversified or that it is very competitive.
