The Romashkino field is an oil field in Tatarstan, Russia. Discovered in 1948, it is the largest oil field of Volga-Ural Basin. The field is operated by Tatneft.
The field covers approximately 4,200 square kilometres (1,600 sq mi). The oil deposit is lays in depth of about 1,800 metres (5,900 ft) in Kinovskiy and Pashiyskiy formations. Since its commissioning, the Romashkino field had produced over 15 billion barrels (2.4×109 m3) of oil. Statistic analysis predicted depletion at 16.5 to 17.2 billion barrels (2.62×109 to 2.73×109 m3). However, advanced technologies allow for extraction of more oil.

At midday when a sunny summer breeze
Has dried the dew and all its ropes relent,”
