Advanced approaches to field development allow increasing the coverage of a productive reservoir and increasing the oil recovery factor.
In 2016, the enterprise began to advance oil supplies to the system of main oil pipelines. In 2017, operation began in the integrated testing mode of the Oil Treatment Unit-1, which made it possible to reach an oil production level of 2.3 million tons per year in 2018.
