  The Day of Remembrance and Reconciliation serves as a reminder of the extraordinarily high price humanity paid for the victory over Nazism. We commemorate the soldiers, the victims of war, deportations, and crimes against humanity. At the same time, this is a day of respect for the veterans of World War II who defeated Nazism, the participants in the Ukrainian liberation movement, and all those who suffered from Nazi persecution.

  For NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy», this day holds special significance as a symbol of generational continuity and resilience in the struggle for freedom. We honor our veterans of the Russia’s war against Ukraine and support our colleagues and all the soldiers who are currently holding back the enemy on the front lines. Their courage, resilience, and loyalty to the state are a continuation of the struggle of previous generations. It is our duty to be a reliable rear guard in this struggle.

  The Day of Remembrance and Reconciliation is not only about history but also about responsibility toward the future. It unites society around shared values: freedom, dignity, peace, and independence. By remembering the lessons of the past, we strengthen the resilience of the state today and lay the foundation for its secure future.

Within the framework of the roundtable, Roman Dvoretskyi presented a report titled «Current Status and Prospects for Developing Shale Gas Deposits in Ukraine». The presentation emphasized the role of unconventional hydrocarbon sources in ensuring the state’s energy security and the strategic importance of shale gas for achieving Ukraine’s energy independence.

“The systematic research work conducted by SE «Ukrnaukageocenter» contributes to forming an appropriate foundation for the development of the domestic resource base. Confirmation of the gas potential of shale formations and the identification of prospective areas is not only the result of years of expertise but also a practical step toward strengthening Ukraine’s energy independence. Our priority is to transform scientific developments into specific extraction projects that will strengthen the state’s energy resilience,” noted Mr. Viktor Novikov, Chairman of the Board of NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy».

Since 2012, by order of the State Service of Geology and Subsoil of Ukraine and NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy», specialists of SE «Ukrnaukageocenter» have been carrying out comprehensive geological-analytical and laboratory studies of shale formations. As part of this work, reinterpretation of geophysical materials using modern methods, analysis of vitrinite reflectance with map construction, reprocessing of petrographic and paleontological data, and generalization of drilling results were conducted. An important stage was the study of core material that had been stored in the enterprise’s archives for over 40 years. As a result, the presence of hydrocarbon gases was confirmed, indicating the gas-bearing potential of shale rocks and their prospects for further exploration and appraisal work. Based on the synthesis of data, six main prospective areas have been identified within the Eastern and Western oil and gas regions of Ukraine. This creates a basis for intensifying geological exploration work and increasing the hydrocarbon resource base.

The roundtable brought together leading scientists and industry practitioners. Participants discussed the implementation of innovative solutions in the energy complex, as well as issues of its resilience and security under martial law. In particular, specialists from specialized universities, scientific institutions of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, and industry enterprises presented their findings. As a reminder, NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy» tripled its contributions to the budget in the first quarter of 2026.

“Our priority is scaling the business, investment attraction, and partnership development. This is not only about increasing production but about creating a competitive model that enables integration into Western supply chains, ensure the stability of the resource base, and generates added value within the country. NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy» is already working on developing a portfolio of projects that meets modern market requirements and can become growth drivers for both the Company and the industry as a whole», noted Chairman of the Board Mr. Viktor Novikov.

The discussion centered on the pivotal role of critical minerals, including titanium, graphite, manganese, and rare earth elements, which are becoming the foundation of a new industrial policy and a crucial component of the West’s security strategy. Forum participants discussed how the growing demand for these resources is reshaping global supply chains and forming new geo-economic priorities. Special attention was paid to Ukraine’s potential as a country with significant mineral reserves that can play a vital role in ensuring the stability of critical raw material supplies for international partners. The participation of NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy» representatives in the event marked an important step in strengthening dialogue with international partners and investors, as well as in promoting Ukraine as a reliable supplier of critical resources to global markets. As a reminder, «Westgazinvest» LLC has recently defended its report on the geological and economic assessment of a gas field.

“For over four years, Ukraine has been experiencing what the entire world is now facing. The energy crisis has become global. Our task is to systematically increase efficiency at every facility, gradually scaling up production. Even small results are a step toward a larger goal: the energy resilience of the country. We are consistently working at all our facilities and are convinced that this approach will yield a tangible result in the near future,” noted Mr. Viktor Novikov, Chairman of the Board of NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy».

Operations at the final stage of development require specialized expertise: with the decrease in reservoir pressure, every cubic meter of gas requires additional technological inputs. Thanks to the implementation of modern intensification methods, optimization of well operations, and the use of mobile compressor units, it is possible to ensure a stable level of production. WESTGASINVEST LLC is an affiliate enterprise of NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy» which owns 100% of the Company’s shares. The enterprise holds six special permits for subsoil use with hydrocarbon deposits in Lviv, Volyn, and Ivano-Frankivsk regions. It is worth noting that, in 2025, NJSC «Nadra Ukrainy» received a net profit that is double the cumulative financial result of the previous ten years of operation.
