Natural gas

In the early 2000, natural gas reserves were discovered on Ostrovo. Potential reserves were estimated at 200 million cubic meters with the possible production of 10,000 cubic meters per day for 12 years. Profitability index was estimated to 1:7 and the extraction could start in 2001. Paraffin petroleum reserves were also discovered. Based on this, a big underground gas storage and a regional pipeline to Smederevo and Požarevac were proposed. Even though by 2003 everything was prepared for the works to begin, by 2017 no progress was made on the ground.[1]
