Operations drilling starts at East-Messoyakhskoye field

Full-scale production drilling has begun at the East Messoyakhskoye field (part of Messoyakh fields, the most northern oil fields in Russia of those that are developed on land).

Construction of 21 wells at the six well pads will be completed by the end of the year, among which one gas – for provision of operation of the gas turbine power plant, and three production ones. In total in 2015, six rigs will be involved in the Messoyakh project, four of which will build production wells and two – exploration ones. It is planned that in 2016 the number of drilling crews will increase to ten.
