The Company ensured the increment of recoverable C1 oil reserves in the volume of 6.5 million tons (4.4 million tons in KhMAO-Yugra and 2.1 million tons in the Krasnoyarsk region) due to the exploration jobs carried out in the past year.
The Company’s resource base was increased due to extension of the boundaries of the Achimovsky license area located in KhMAO-Yugra (the increment of C1 oil reserves amounted to 6.1 million tons).
