history

The development of the settlement is closely linked to the developing forestry and timber industry. In April 1958, the first forest management facility was put into operation in the area where it is today. Construction of the settlement began in 1963, at that time under the name Swetly ( Светлый ). A forest enterprise and a work settlement for the local wood industry workers were established. For the transport of wood and people, the construction of the Tawda – Sotnik ( Сотник ; village near Mezhduretschensky ) railway line began in 1964 . On December 31, 1964, the place received the status of an urban-type settlement under the new name Kuminski. The forest enterprise, which had 104 workers at that time, was renamed the Kuminski Forestry Enterprise ( Куминский леспромхоз ) in 1965 . The first school was built in the rapidly growing settlement in autumn 1965. The Tawda – Sotnik railway section was completed in December 1966.

The development of oil and natural gas deposits in the west of the Chanten and Mansi Autonomous Okrug began as early as the 1960s. There is also a pumping station and pipelines for the transport of crude oil in Kuminski. The discovery of large gas deposits in the area opens up prospective opportunities for the site in the area of ​​the natural gas industry.
