Ukhta, Administrative center in Komi Republic, Russia

Ukhta extends along the banks of its namesake river, positioned 325 kilometers from Syktyvkar at an elevation of 100 meters above sea level.

The settlement began as Chibyú in 1929 near a small river tributary, later receiving its current name in 1939 and obtaining city status in 1943.

The population of 99,513 residents includes Russians, Ukrainians, and Caucasians, forming a northern community shaped by industrial development and resource extraction.

The city maintains transportation connections through its small airport, railway system, and road network, facilitating movement throughout the Komi Republic region.

Natural gas and oil production define the industrial foundation of Ukhta, with local deposits supporting refineries and contributing to national energy resources.
