Q4 2016 average daily liquid hydrocarbon production amounted to 4.46 mmboed with 12.1% increase vs. Q3 2016 and 13.3% - vs. Q4 2015. The main growth factors were Bashneft integration in October, commissioning of production assets at the East Messoyakhskoe field and comprehensive testing of oil production, treatment and transport facilities at Suzun field, consistent improvement at RN-Yuganskneftegaz (+2.5% vs. Q4 2015), Samaraneftegaz (+3.0% vs. Q4 2015) and RN-Severnaya Neft (+8.8% vs. Q4 2015).

Total liquid hydrocarbon production in 2016 grew by 3.6% to 210.0 mmtoe. Net of Bashneft acquisition the liquid hydrocarbon production increased by 0.9% YoY.

The development drilling in 2016 increased by 35% to 9.3 mln m in accordance with planned figures. Commissioning of over 2.6 th. new wells in 2016 (43% YoY increase) 32% of which were horizontal represented the new record for the Company. The share of in-house drilling service in the overall footage steadily exceeds 50%.

For further development of in-house services the Company in 2016 acquired 15 sets of new heavy drill rigs BU 5000/320 and purchased Targin service company. By the end of 2016 the number of active drilling rigs increased to 280 units (+26% YoY).

In mid-November accumulated production from the development startup at RN-Yuganskneftegaz reached 2.2 bln tons. Despite the field’s long history current production trend in RN-Yuganskneftegaz is steadily positive: annual liquid hydrocarbon production grew by 2.0% to 63.7 mmt.

The East Messoyakhskoye field was brought on stream in September. Due to modern technical and engineering solutions the field infrastructure was built within less than 3 years. In preparing for the 1^st development stage, the Company started comprehensive testing of oil treatment and transportation facilities at Suzun field: final operations at 1^st Start Up Complex of Oil Treatment Facility with a rated capacity of 4.5 mmtpa and the pipeline from Suzun OTF to Vankor OTF, continued infrastructure setup at 6 well pads and related infrastructure. 2016 oil production at Suzun and Vostochno-Messoyakhskoye fields already exceeded 1.7 mmt.

In Q3 2015 Labaganskoe field was put on stream. 0.9 mmt were produced at the field in 2016 in accordance with basic targets.

The construction of Central Processing Facility (CPF) started at Russkoe field ahead of schedule for preparation of the field for FFD. The facility with the throughput capacity of more than 6.3 mmt will be intended for the oil treatment to ensure its commercial properties for further transportation.
