Two of the license areas –Salmanovskiy (formerly, Utrenniy) and Geofizicheskiy - are located in the hydrocarbon-rich Gydan peninsula, and have combined reserves of 978.6 billion cubic meters of natural gas and 46.3 million tons of liquid hydrocarbons under Russian reserve classification “ABC1 + C2”. The remaining two license areas - North-Obskiy and East-Tambeyskiy – are located offshore in the northern portion of the Gulf of Ob, and have a combined resource base of 1,763 billion cubic meters of natural gas and 220.7 million tons of liquid hydrocarbons according to the Russian reserve classification “D1 + D2”.
