Ukrnafta drilled the first well in 13 years at one of the company’s youngest and most promising fields. In the coming years, the company plans to build ten more new wells there..

" The working conditions are extremely difficult - 1080 meters above sea level, mountainous terrain, lack of sufficient communications, notes the director of PJSC Ukrnafta Sergey Koretsky. - The last time new facilities were built there was in 2011. In 2024, for the first time since then, we drilled a new well and carried out hydraulic fracturing at 3 sites. This year 2025 there will be 5 new wells, in 2026 – 5 more. We work on our own because the market refused - it’s too difficult. That's why we raised our own machines there"

In parallel, a large-scale infrastructure project is being implemented at the field: the throughput of pipelines is being expanded there, since the existing infrastructure is not capable of carrying the expected volume.
