Nefteyugansk, Oil industry center in Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, Russia
Located on an island between channels of the Yuganskaya Ob River, Nefteyugansk stands as the third largest city in the Khanty-Mansi region with 128,700 residents.
The city emerged after the 1961 discovery of the Ust-Balyk oil field, when an expedition led by Mikhail Petrov established the first settlement on the riverbank.
The city museum, established in 1982, documents the regional petroleum industry development and preserves artifacts from the early settlement period through modern times.
The Surgut International Airport connects Nefteyugansk with major Russian cities, while the bridge across Yuganskaya Ob provides essential road access to neighboring regions.
The extraction from oil well R-63 in December 1962 produced 800 tons daily, marking it as the largest oil fountain in the Tyumen region at that time.
