State gas producer UkrGazVydobuvannya opened in November its fourth field in Kharkiv region this year. Using Schlumberger’s Petrel software to model the field, UGV estimates recoverable gas to be 3.7 million cubic meters. The three other Kharkiv fields add up to an additional 4.5 million cubic meters of recoverable gas. UGV supports the government’s move to electronic tenders of exploration permits, saying it needs 20 permits a year to meet its exploration and production goals.
