Ukrnafta plans new drilling and stimulation in 2025

In 2025, Ukrnafta plans to drill about 30 new wells, as well as workovers, equipment upgrades and production stimulation.

This was announced by Sergii Koretskyi, CEO at UKRNAFTA, on the sidelines of the conference "Supplier Day for State-Owned Oil and Gas Enterprises: Plans for 2025" organized by the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine and Naftogaz of Ukraine.

"We plan to increase production in 2025. About 30 new wells. The vast majority of them will be performed with the help of third-party contractors," said Sergii Koretskyi, "We also plan about 120 workovers - about 34 with the help of third-party contractors; and 52 hydraulic fracturing operations - about 30 with external support."

The company places great emphasis on upgrading equipment and improving energy efficiency: modernizing compressor stations, installing booster stations and modular equipment for hydrocarbon preparation and metering.

"We are preparing to conduct 3D seismic surveys over about 1,250 square kilometers of area. We also plan to conduct industrial and geophysical research, design and survey work," said the CEO at UKRNAFTA, "In 2025, we will focus on pipeline surveys: to prevent gusts and emergencies, we will need to check about 2.5 thousand kilometers."

The company also repairs and modernizes the filling stations of the largest mono-branded chain in Ukraine. About 100 existing filling stations will be partially modernized this year. Shops and cafes will appear. Modernization of existing filling stations and construction of new complexes is a goal for the coming years.

"All Ukrnafta's plans are impossible without reliable partners. Therefore, I sincerely invite everyone to follow the updates on the company's official resources, participate in open tenders in the Prozorro public procurement system and build Ukraine's energy sustainability," emphasized Sergii Koretskyi.
