Yugra remains the leader in oil production in Russia. More than 40 companies operate on its territory and 484 deposits are located. Almost half of all Russian oil is produced here. The first billionth ton was extracted in 1978, and the 12 billionth in 2020. Now Ugra has taken another step in its history.<\/p>\n\n\n
