The well opened up prospects for a previously undiscovered block in one of the fields in eastern Ukraine with promising resources of more than 6 billion cubic meters.
company Ukrgasdobycha launched a new exploration well with a depth of 5,800 m. Currently, its flow rate is 580 thousand cubic meters. m of gas per day Naftogaz on Wednesday, May 24th.
It is indicated that this is one of the strongest wells in recent years. In addition, it opened up prospects for a previously unexplored block in one of the fields in eastern Ukraine. The expected gas resources of this block are estimated at more than 6 billion cubic meters.
“Currently, two more new wells are being drilled in the said block: prospecting and exploration wells,” the report said.
It is known that this field has significant prospects, but also a complex geological structure, highly complicated by deep faults and having a block character. The discovered gas deposits are located in a high-temperature section with abnormally high pressure formation.
Due to the lack of technology, the development of promising deposits of this field at significant depths was previously impossible.
Just recently Ukrgasdobycha performed a 3D seismic survey there, which allowed this exploration to be well-directed design. Its drilling and exploration became a difficult challenge for the team of geologists, drillers and geophysicists, which they overcame.
Remember that was in April Ukrgasdobycha launched a well that produces more than 460,000 cubic meters of gas per day. Then it was called the most powerful in the last two and a half years.
before Naftogaz announced a record rate of drilling gas wells. Gas producers are losing gas production rates in the east of Ukraine, but this method is increasing them in the west.
