In the first half of 2018 LUKOIL Group’s hydrocarbon production excluding West Qurna-2 project was 2,287 thousand boe per day, which is 3.2% higher year-on-year.

The increase was driven by the development of gas projects. In the second quarter of 2018 production was 2,289 thousand boe per day and flat quarter-on-quarter.

2,289 2,286 Total (excluding West-Qurna 2 project) 2,287 2,217

Oil production excluding West Qurna-2 project in the first half of 2018 was 42.1 million tonnes, including 21.1 million tonnes produced in the second quarter, which is flat quarter-on-quarter in average daily terms. Starting January 2017 LUKOIL Group’s oil production volumes and dynamics are mainly defined by the external limitations of Russian companies’ production volumes.

Active development of the priority projects continued. The third well was launched in June 2018 at the second development stage of the V. Filanovsky field, which allowed to reach sustainable daily plateau production level equivalent to 6 million tonnes of oil per year. In the first half of 2018 production at the field increased by 43% year-on-year, to 2.9 million tonnes.

The drilling of the first production well started at the second development stage of the Yu. Korchagin field and was completed in July 2018. The initial well flow amounted to 500 tonnes of oil per day.

Further development of the Yaregskoe field and Permian reservoir of the Usinskoe field allowed to increase high viscosity oil production in the first half of 2018 by 35% year-on-year, to 2 million tonnes.

Oil and gas condensate production at the Pyakyakhinskoe field in West Siberia increased by 7% year-on-year, to 0.8 million tonnes.

The share of the abovementioned five projects in the LUKOIL Group’s oil production excluding West Qurna-2 project amounted to 14% in the first half of 2018, 3 percentage points up year-on-year.

The main driver of gas production growth was the successful development of projects in Uzbekistan. Due to the launch of new gas treatment facilities, production at Kandym and Gissar projects in the first half of 2018 doubled year-on-year to 6.1 billion cubic meters.
