BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 5. Uzbekistan has
found a brand new gas-condensate discipline within the central a part of the
Ustyurt area after exploration drilling recognized commercially
important pure gasoline and condensate deposits in deep Decrease
Jurassic formations.
This was mirrored within the assertion by the Uzbekneftegaz.
The Qoratau discipline is positioned within the Muynak district of the
Republic of Karakalpakstan. Exploration properly No. 1 was drilled to a
depth of 4,860 meters as a part of geological exploration actions
on the web site.
Throughout properly testing on Oct. 3, specialists recovered a
commercially important circulation of pure gasoline and condensate from
the Decrease Jurassic formations at depths starting from 3,213 to three,273
meters, ensuing within the discovery of the brand new Qoratau
gas-condensate discipline, in accordance with Uzbekneftegaz.
“The invention of the Qoratau gas-condensate discipline creates new
prospects for geological exploration of deep formations within the
Ustyurt area and helps determine promising new areas for additional
exploration,” Uzbekneftegaz mentioned.
Underneath the exploration plan, drilling of the No. 2 exploration
properly is scheduled to be accomplished by the tip of 2026, whereas
drilling is anticipated to start at exploration wells No. 3 and No.
4.
The invention is anticipated to supply extra geological information
on the deep formations of the Ustyurt area and assist determine new
potential areas for additional exploration.
The Ustyurt area is one in all Uzbekistan’s key areas for
hydrocarbon exploration, with geological packages centered on
assessing deeper formations and increasing the nation’s useful resource
base.
