Mikhail Afendikov, Chairman and Chief Executive of Cub Energy, commented:
“I am very pleased with the progress Cub has made in the first nine months of the year. We have increased production two-and-a-half times when compared to the same period in 2011.
We continue to make good progress with our program and in our production levels by bringing new wells on-stream, dual completions of existing wells and focusing on our low-risk development of proven and underexploited assets.
With the completion of our workplan for our western assets, the RK Field facilities upgrade, our acceleration of the drilling program on our eastern assets and our program for 2013 in place, we are excited about our prospects for the year ahead. Our focus for the remainder of the year and 2013 will be on the execution of our projects and commencement of the drilling program on our western assets.”
