PJSC Ukrgazvydobuvannia in the period from July 12 to July 16, 2017 reached the daily gas production level of 42.1 million cubic meters, which is the maximum value for the last five years.

According to a company report, this is 7.4% or 2.9 million cubic meters more than in the same period in 2016.

"The trend of the past few years, when production fell in summer, has been completely broken. Now it is growing, mainly thanks to the hydro fracturing program. But there are operations of coiled tubing and overhauls of wells, and accelerating in drilling also yields results," head of the company Oleh Prokhorenko wrote in Facebook.

According to the company, thanks to the implementation of work on intensification of layers by a hydraulic fracturing method since September 2016 the company has received an additional 261 million cubic meters of gas. In September 2016-June 2017 the company together with UGV-Service, Belorusneft and Tacrom carried out 76 hydraulic fracturing operations and all of them were recognized as successful.
