KYIV, March 30 – President Petro Poroshenko signed a bill deregulating the license issue in the oil and gas production sphere, according to post on Parliament’s website.

The law permits the use of the servitude tool for the construction of oil and gas production facilities and pipelines (without changing the purpose of land use).

The obligatory introduction of deposits to research, industrial and commercial development is canceled by the decision of the Ministry of Energy and Coal Industry.
