History
Gazprom dobycha Yamburg has been operating in YaNAO since 1984.
The history of the company started with the Yamburg oil, gas and condensate field development, with more than 3 tcm of natural gas produced. At the moment the work is underway on intensive development of peripheral areas of the field: in December 2005 the Aneryakhinskaya area was brought to its nominal capacity – 10 bcm per year. A year later the gas treatment unit # 9 of the Kharutvinskaya area was put into operation. In late October 2007 the gas pre-treatment plant # 10 was launched.
In 2001 the Zapolyarnoye field was put into operation. 100 bcm of gas per year coming from the Zapolyarnoye field to the Unified Gas Supply System (UGSS) of Russia since 2004 – almost a fifth of all gas volumes produced by Gazprom. In July 2007 a new development stage commenced at Zapolyarnoye. First wells of the Neocomian deposit first startup complex were drilled.
