Ukraine's state gas extraction company launches three new wells- statement

Ukraine's state gas extraction company launched three new gas wells on Friday with a collective output of over 400,000 cubic metres per day, its parent company Naftogaz said in a statement.

"Two of these wells are entirely new, while the third was restored," the statement said.

Ukraine was historically a major gas transit hub for supplies flowing from Russia to Europe, but Kyiv has sought to develop alternative sources since the start of Moscow's invasion last year.
