The 76 Rosetti well reached a depth of 5,256 meters, contributing 4% to the national gas production for the winter of 2026-2027.

The 76 Rosetti well, part of the Caragele project, has reached a record depth of 5,256 meters and will be put into production in the second quarter of 2026. The Caragele field, located in the counties of Buzău and Brăila, is estimated to contribute approximately 4% to the total national gas production for the winter of 2026-2027. The Ministry of Economy has announced that the fifth extension of the exploration phase is underway, and two wells are expected to be operational in 2026.

The Caragele project, one of the largest onshore natural gas fields in Romania, is facing technical difficulties, but Romgaz aims to continue deep drilling. In 2026, investments of 250 million lei are estimated for the expansion of productive infrastructure, including the installation of new technological groups. Projects to increase transport and treatment capacities are essential to support future natural gas production. The Caragele field is a key element in Romgaz's development strategy, significantly contributing to gas production in Romania.
