Work on new well No. 75 has been successfully completed at the Uzynada oil and gas field in Turkmenistan. This marks an important step in the implementation of the "Program for the Development of the Oil and Gas Industry of Turkmenistan until 2030" and confirms the high professionalism of the specialists of the State Concern Turkmennebit.
The new well was drilled using a Chinese ZJ-70-DB rig and reached a depth of 6,800 meters. The well's completion has ensured a stable flow of oil and gas condensate — up to 91.7 cubic meters per day. The drilling operations were carried out by a team from the Korpeje Drilling Department of the Nebitgazburavlayysh Trust, led by Tagangeldi Amanov.
Yegenmyrat Hallyev, Chief Geologist of the Korpeje Drilling Department, noted that the successes at Uzynada are the result of the President of Turkmenistan's ongoing support for the development of a key sector of the national economy. "Our specialists are confidently mastering modern drilling rigs, which allows us to work at deep horizons and efficiently extract abundant hydrocarbon reserves," he emphasized.
Currently, three wells are being drilled simultaneously at the Uzynada field. Modern drilling rigs make it possible to develop deep horizons, and specialists continue active work at the Barsagelmez, South Bugdayly, Atjan, Altyguyy, and Ekizak fields.
The new well has become a significant contribution to Turkmenistan's energy security and strengthens the region's position as an important oil and gas production center.
The drillers express their gratitude to our country's leadership for creating the conditions for working with modern equipment, which allows them to implement advanced technologies in production.
