Russia's Rosneft is to carry out a full-scale commercial development of the North Danilovskoye oilfield in East Siberia's Irkutsk region after running a trial production programme since 2015, writes Vladimir Afanasiev.

According to the company, the development plan calls for the drilling of 95 production wells from 10 clusters, construction of gas-fired energy-generating facilities, in-field pipelines, roads, reservoir pressure management units and other supporting infrastructure.
