Technology could boost Ukrainian gas output

摘要

North American technology could give Ukraine's stagnant upstream gas sector a major boost, even turning the country into a net exporter of gas to Europe in the future, according to the head of local player JKX Oil & Gas. Speaking at the IP Week conference in London, JKX CEO Tom Reed said there could be more than 20 gas fields in Ukraine - including its own Rudenkivske field -that with the right technological approach could boost Ukrainian domestic gas output to 40 Bcm/year from the current 20 Bcm/year.
