Dynamics of key indicators
Gazprom Neft PJSC intends to increase hydrocarbon production to 100 million TOE per year by 2020 and continue to increase production until 2025. The Company plans to maintain a 15-year ratio of proven reserves to production. In order to achieve these goals, Gazprom Neft will strive to employ the most cost-effective methods to recover the remaining reserves from the current resource base by utilizing the best practices for optimizing field development, reducing the cost of proven technologies as well as acquiring and introducing new technologies.
The strategy involves the establishment of a new production centre in the north of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District (YNAD). Gazprom Neft is considering unconventional reserves as a growth opportunity and will develop this class of assets as a key component of its portfolio.
