SOCAR与挪国油在阿塞拜疆卡拉巴油田有石油发现

据欧洲石油3月23日消息，SOCAR公司和挪威国油已经证实，在里海阿塞拜疆地区巴库以东120公里处卡拉巴油田有石油发现。

卡拉巴油田首口评价井于2019年12月23日开始钻探。这口井由SOCAR里海钻井公司运营的Dada Gorgud半潜式钻井平台在水深180米的地方进行钻探。对卡拉巴油田的商业开发而言，已发现油气储量的估计规模是令人满意的。

SOCAR总裁Rovnag Abdullayev表示：“卡拉巴油田是新时期发现的第一个油田，其石油储量估计超过6000万吨。评估能够安全、及时、顺利地交付给目标，是SOCAR与挪威国油有效合作的结果。卡拉巴油田的开发将大大增加阿塞拜疆的石油收入。”

SOCAR, Equinor confirm discovery of Karabagh Oil Field in Azerbaijan

SOCAR and Norway’s Equinor have confirmed a discovery of Karabagh field located 120 kilometers offshore, east of Baku, in the Azerbaijan sector of the Caspian Sea.

Drilling of the first appraisal well at Karabagh oil field was started on December 23, 2019. The well was drilled in water depth of 180 meters by the Dada Gorgud semi-submersible drilling rig operated by SOCAR’s Caspian Drilling Company (CDC). Estimated size of the discovered volumes of oil and gas are satisfactory for pursuing commercial development of the Karabagh field.

SOCAR’s President, Rovnag Abdullayev said: “Karabagh is the first oil field discovered during the independence period of our country and its oil reserves estimated more than 60 million tons. The successful delivery of the appraisal well to the target safely and on time is the result of effective collaboration of SOCAR and Equinor. Development of the Karabagh field will significantly contribute to Azerbaijan’s oil incomes.”
