The PBU-2 was delivered there with a cargo helicopter MI-26 https://youtu.be/SoIbLgUtYzY.

Wells were drilled using the DTH technology using down-hole hammers d=130 мм. As a drill string, drilling pipes TBSU-63,5 l=1 500 mm produced by AO GEOMASH were used. Generally, the drill rig PBU-2 has proved to be a reliable unit working in extreme conditions at – 40 °C.
