For September 2016 - August 2019, JSC Ukrgasvydobuvannya has received more than 4 bcm of the accumulated gas production due to 384 hydraulic fracturing operations (HF).
From the beginning of 2019, UGV has performed 94 operations as of the beginning of August. The HF operations were performed by both the UGV-Service branch and PU "Belorusneft" and Tacrom Services SRL service companies that won the electronic tenders in the Prozorro automated trading system.
Note that at the end of Q1 2019, after completion of upgrading and refitting operations, JSC Ukrgasvydobuvannya has started performing production stimulation operations using its own HF fleet.
A new fleet made it possible not only to increase the amount of production stimulation works but also to create new jobs. The specialists who started working with their fleet have undergone several training courses. They participated in HF operations performed by external contractors and adopted their foreign colleagues' experience and practical skills. Its plans hold additional practical and theoretical sessions for UGV-SERVICE employees, along with the performance of the works, with the involvement of the "big four" companies as the best effect is achieved by the combination of theory and practice.
