In mid-April 2019, Gazprom Neft Khantos reported that it booked a new oil pool at the Priobskoye field in Khanty-Mansiysk (Yugra) Autonomous Okrug (Western Siberia). The pool belongs to the Achimov Member (Berriasian-Valanginian). Its 3P oil reserves are estimated at 73 MMbbl in-place and 18 MMbbl of recoverable.   The discovery was made by new-pool wildcat Priobskaya Yuzhnaya 615 drilled and tested in the southeastern part of the field in 2018. The well was drilled to 3,382 m at Paleozoic. No hydrocarbons were tested from reservoirs Yu10-Yu11 (Lower Jurassic), Yu2 (Middle Jurassic) and Yu0 (Upper Jurassic). Oil flow at a rate of 81 b/d was tested from the interval 2,772-2,799 m in the Achimov Member.
