OREANDA-NEWS. March 24, 2010. Yuzhno-Roslavlkoye oilfield was discovered by the geologists of ANGG drilling exploration well No 21 in 1993, and was put into test operation in 2009. Horizontal well No 1 was drilled at the well pad No 1 of Yuzhno-Roslavlskoye oilfield. In the course of drilling there was tapped oil reservoir БВ-8.

Commissioning of the horizontal well  enabled the Company from the beginning of this year to raise by 28 % daily hydrocarbon stock production at OAO MPC “Aganneftegasgeologia”, a subsidiary of NK “RussNeft”, which is developing Yuzhno-Roslavlskoye oilfield. This fact not only helped to stabilize the amount of oil production of the company, but also to form up a steady tendency of production determinants’ growth. Thus, daily production output of ANGG this March   as compared with January this year has grown by 800 tons and amounted to 2461 tons. 

“RussNeft”  goes on actively developing its oilfields in Western Siberia.  At present the company is drilling slanted wells at Yuzhno-Roslavlskoye and Vostochno-Golevoye oilfields, a horizontal well at Mokhtikovskoye oilfield. At the same time the company is actively exploring the deposits of Yuzhno-Roslavlskoye oilfield which will permit to specify the structure of lower seated oil reservoirs of this license area. The holding is planning to reach further growth of hydrocarbon stock production output at these oilfield  due to implementation of the programs of drilling and geologic and technical works.
