Ukrnafta specialists have developed and implemented their own software suite, WellWorkoverSupervisor, for planning and managing well workovers.
“This solution was developed in-house based on the practical experience of the company’s specialists, taking into account international best practices,” the company announced on Tuesday.
Ukrnafta explained that well workovers are one of the most complex production processes, as working with equipment at depths of several thousand meters requires precise engineering calculations, high-quality preparation, and strict adherence to safety requirements.
Previously, the company did not have a single standardized software tool for such calculations. Some of the work was performed manually or using outdated software, which took more time and increased the risk of errors.
However, engineers from the Well Repair Supervision Division of the Production and Technology Department have developed their own software product that meets the company’s actual production needs.
“Digital transformation is not just about purchasing off-the-shelf IT solutions. It also involves developing our own engineering expertise and creating tools that directly improve production efficiency,” said Bogdan Kukura, Chairman of the Board of JSC “Ukrnafta.”
According to him, the use of WellWorkoverSupervisor has already made it possible to reduce the time required to prepare work plans, minimize the risk of errors in calculations, and improve production safety.
WellWorkoverSupervisor includes over 30 specialized modules and allows users to automate key technical calculations, create graphs and engineering diagrams, generate ready-to-use PDF reports, and utilize a built-in reference guide for pipes, threaded connections, and equipment.
In terms of functionality, the software suite is on par with expensive foreign counterparts, Ukrnafta added.
JSC “Ukrnafta” is Ukraine’s largest oil production company, carrying out a full cycle of activities in the field of extraction: exploration, oil and gas production, the provision of oilfield services, as well as the management of UKRNAFTA, the largest network of gas stations in Ukraine.
The company’s balance sheet includes over 1,106 oil wells and 131 gas wells.
The shareholders of JSC “Ukrnafta” are NJSC “Naftogaz of Ukraine” and the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. Since 2022, the company has been under state management and is implementing a large-scale business transformation.
By the end of 2025, “Ukrnafta” had become the leader in the extraction industry with a turnover of 99.6 billion UAH, as reflected in Opendatabot’s Index of Top Companies.
The UKRNAFTA gas station network is the largest in Ukraine, comprising nearly 700 stations and ranking among the top three in terms of fuel sales volume. The UKRNAFTA brand now unites networks that previously operated under the Glusco, Shell, and U.Go brands.
