“Our operations are back to normal at the Lelyaki oil field. Daily production even exceeds the levels prior to the shut-in due to pressure build-up. We are very pleased with the cooperation with our partner Ukrnafta and are looking forward to further developing the field together,” says Zenon Potoczny, President of Shelton Petroleum.
In light of the recent reinstatement of production at the Lelyaki oil field, Shelton Petroleum hereby provides a report for September.

Prior to the shut-in, daily production amounted to 217 barrels per day. Production at the Rustamovskoye field in Russia amounted to 5,500 barrels, or 184 barrels per day. A development program has been launched at this field to significantly increase production levels.
