ASHGABAT, Turkmenistan, January 5. A commercial
inflow of around 300,000 cubic meters of natural gas per day has
been obtained at the Toparjulba gas field in Turkmenistan following
the drilling of a new operational well, Trend reports via the
government of the country.
In addition, a new natural gas inflow was obtained at the
Toparjulba gas field, which is part of the Central Karakum group of
gas deposits. As part of efforts to increase the production of
sulfur-free gas, an operational well, No. 264, was drilled at the
field to a depth of 1,200 meters on behalf of the
Dovletabatgazchykarysh directorate. During development of the Lower
Cretaceous section at depths of 1,085-1,082 meters, the well
delivered a stable commercial gas flow.
At the Galkynysh gas field, an operational well, No. 110, with a
depth of 4,180 meters, was drilled by Turkmengazburavlayysh on
behalf of the Marygazchykarysh directorate as part of the first
stage of field development. Test operations conducted in the
open-hole interval of 4,149-4,015 meters resulted in a commercial
inflow of natural gas with a daily production rate exceeding 2
million cubic meters.
Earlier, a new gas well with a daily output of 120,000 cubic
meters opened in the Lebap region by the state concern
Lebapgazchykarysh.
The well, designated Hazarly-2, was drilled by experts from the
Marynebitgazgozleg expedition under the State Corporation
"Turkmengeologiya" and is situated near the Bovrideshik gas field
in the Hazarly region. This will be the first well in this area
where commercial gas production will begin.
