PJSC Ukrnafta plans to start construction of 30 new wells in the west and east of the country in 2024, the company said in a press release citing the company’s director Serhiy Koretsky on Monday.
“In 2024, we plan to start construction of 30 new wells in the East and West of the country, some of which may become transitional wells due to the full utilization of our own rigs and the small capacity of the drilling market in Ukraine,” the CEO said.
According to him, Ukrnafta does not rule out the possibility of accelerating the processes through cooperation with international and Ukrainian partners.
“I am grateful to drillers, geologists, engineers and partners for the fact that Ukraine can increase production of the resource,” Koretsky added.
As reported by the company, Ukrnafta commissioned eight new wells in western and eastern Ukraine in 2023 with a total production rate of 238 tons of oil per day. Five wells were drilled with the company’s own drilling rigs, and three were drilled with the help of contractors who won tenders in the state procurement system Prozorro.
“Nine new wells were planned, and we held a tender for the last one at the end of 2023, but it takes time to bring the equipment to the site. Drilling will begin in the coming days,” the company said.
As reported, in 2023, Ukrnafta increased oil and condensate production by 3% (by 39.9 thousand tons) compared to 2022 – up to 1 million 409.9 thousand tons, gas production by 5.8% (by 60.4 million cubic meters), up to 1 billion 97.4 million cubic meters.
“Ukrnafta’s strategic goal is to double its oil and natural gas production to 3 million tons and 2 billion cubic meters by 2027, respectively.
“Ukrnafta is Ukraine’s largest oil producer and operator of a national network of 537 filling stations, of which 456 are in operation.
Ukrnafta’s largest shareholder is Naftogaz of Ukraine with a 50%+1 share. On November 5, 2022, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine decided to transfer the corporate rights of the company owned by private owners, which is now managed by the Ministry of Defense, to the state.
