KIEV, Nov. 2 - Chornomornaftogaz, an off-shore subsidiary of national energy company Naftogaz Ukrayiny, produced 947 million cubic meters of gas in January-October, a 14.8% year-on-year increase, the company reported Friday.

The bulk of the increase was due to active operations on the country's shelf: the build-up of the Shtormove and Arkhanhelske deposits and the capital overhaul of a well at the Holitsynske deposit.
