As of the end of 2019, the Russian drilling company Naftagaz-Drilling constructed 188 wells, that's more than 2018. They include 129 horizontal wells amounting to about 70% of the order portfolio.

"Our company is ready to take on complex projects, as we have the required experience and skills," says Islam Nazarliev, CEO of Management Company NaftaGaz JSC. "In addition to horizontal wells, we also drill pressure controlled wells (“underbalanced wells”) and multilateral wells."
