It began production in 1970 and produces natural gas and condensates. The total proven reserves are around 5.58 trillion cubic feet (1.58×1011 m3), and daily production was slated to be around 407.8 million cubic feet (11,550,000 m3) in 2010.[1] According to Climate Trace it is the largest single source of greenhouse gas emissions by Russia.[2]
