Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha (part of Rosneft Oil Company) is celebrating its 25th anniversary. The company is developing the Central Block and Kurungsky license area of the Srednebotuobinskoye oil and gas condensate field, located in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
By 2013, the company had built and launched the main oil field infrastructure, including oil treatment and transportation facilities. That same year, commercial production of the field began, and oil began flowing into the Eastern Siberia – Pacific Ocean main pipeline. Over the course of 25 years, the company has transformed from a small oil field into a large, high-tech production facility. Cumulative production has exceeded 40 million tons of oil.
The field's geological conditions require innovative production technologies and unconventional engineering solutions. At the Srednebotuobinskoye field, a number of advanced technologies have demonstrated high efficiency, including the organization of a reservoir pressure system in the gas-oil-water zone, the implementation of autonomous inflow control devices, hydraulic and gas-dynamic fracturing, and deep seismic exploration. Digital field technologies improve the productivity of oil workers and industrial safety.
Intensive drilling is underway at the field: since 2014, over 2.4 million meters of rock have been drilled, and more than 560 wells have been constructed. The company is replicating a project to construct multilateral wells, including up to seven sidetracks, with an average depth of 5,000 meters in the reservoir.
Taas-Yuryakh Oil and Gas Production set a record by drilling a unique well, the "Birch Leaf" configuration, with 15 sidetracks and a total reservoir length of 10,310 meters. This innovative solution increased the profitability of oil production, with the "Birch Leaf" well's productivity being ten times higher than a conventional horizontal well. The project received the highest rating from the Russian Ministry of Energy in 2020, won the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) State Prize, and took first place in the All-Russian "New Idea" competition.
Thanks to the extensive use of digital technologies and advanced domestic methods, the company's geologists have added five new deposits to the state register over the past six years.
Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha, together with Rosneft's scientific complex, continues geological exploration work at the company's licensed areas. During the 2023-2024 field season, seismic exploration work covering more than 1,300 square kilometers was completed.
The company's high production figures were achieved thanks to the coordinated work of its highly qualified team. Taas-Yuryakh Neftegazodobycha provides comfortable and safe working conditions. The field's shift worker housing complex includes a fitness center with a sauna and swimming pool, a medical center, and a cafeteria with a full hot meal preparation cycle.
The company is one of the largest taxpayers and employers in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), successfully implementing social and charitable projects in the area where it operates, and paying special attention to the environmental safety of production and the preservation of the unique natural environment in the region of its operations.
Rosneft's largest social project in Yakutia was the construction and equipping of a building for the Junior Academy of Sciences in the village of Chapaevo, Khangalassky District. The new 7,000-square-meter building houses a center for supporting talented children and a hub for research and project activities for schoolchildren throughout the Far East region. It operates on the model of the Sirius Educational Center.
