The drilling of production wells for the pilot commercial development of the oil rim started in the Chayandinskoye field in Yakutia, the basic field of the Yakutia gas production center.

Pilot commercial development is a crucial stage preceding the commercial operation of a field. As part of this stage geophysical, production and other properties of a pay zone will be determined and the selected technical solutions will be assessed.

At present, three production wells are being drilled in the Chayandinskoye field. All in all, 11 production wells will be drilled during pilot commercial development of the oil rim.
