The largest and most recently-acquired block, Suyanovskoye, encompases an area of 300 sq km., which brings the company's total license area to 540 sq km.

Bashkiria
Shelton Petroleum's Russian license blocks are located in Bashkiria, a federal subject of the Russian Federation. Bashkiria is located south-west of the Ural Mountains. It is rich in crude oil reserves and was one of the principal centres of oil extraction in the Soviet Union.
Bashkiria has a population of four million and an area of 140,000 sq km. The capital is Ufa. Compared to the severe climate conditions of Siberia, Bashkiria is quite favourable as the climate allows work all year around.
