Мая 05, 2010

At the Van-Yoganskoe field of Varegannefegaz (part of TNK-BP), a program to implement infill drilling has begun. According to the unit’s plan, in the near future six new wells will be drilled in one of the pads.

According to a geological survey, the daily production rate of each will be approximately 42 tons. The prospects for the Van-Yoganskoe field related to the potential zones of remaining oil reserves will be announced once the results of geological modeling are in. At the same time, a daily production rate of 50 tons of oil was measured after hydraulic fracturing at one of the wells undergoing reservoir pressure maintenance. In accordance with the program for infill drilling, construction of another pad at the Van-Yoganskoe field is currently underway, and the drilling of an additional six wells is planned.
