KYIV, Nov 28 – DTEK Naftogaz is ready to boost new drilling if the deposit use royalties are cut, DTEK Naftogaz CEO Ihor Schurov has said at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine.

He recalled that from 2013 through 2016, gas production by the company grew from 0.5 to 1.6 billion cubic meters (bcm). In 2017, the production pace almost did not change due to the existing fiscal policy.
