In October, Zakhidnadraservice Group increased its natural gas production by 36% to 26.4 mcm compared to September, as evidenced by ExPro data. The company's production volumes increased by 20% compared to October last year. This is also the highest monthly level in the company's history.

The increase in production was primarily due to 4 successful hydraulic fracturing operations at the Tershakivska area of the Ugnivska field. Tacrom Ukraine carried out the work.

Also, on September 20, Horyzonty LLC resumed natural gas production at the Tynivske field - about 200 tcm per day, which is more than before the field was shut down. Production had been suspended since mid-September.

In total, over 10 months of 2024, Zakhidnadraservice Group companies produced more than 210 mcm of natural gas. The company remains the largest private producer in the Western region. Zakhidnadraservice is also among the Top 5 private companies in Ukraine in terms of natural gas production. Zinoviy Kozitskiy is the owner and Stepan Kozitskiy is the director.

The Group comprises 8 companies producing natural gas in Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk regions, including Well Co LLC, which produces gas at Uhnivska field under the Production Sharing Agreement (PSA). Zinoviy Kozytskyi also has a joint venture with the Czech MND - Horyzonty LLC.

As ExPro previously reported, Vitaliy Antonov from OKKO acquired a stake in one of Zakhidnadraservice's gas production companies.
