SOCAR将于一季度开发卡拉巴赫油田

据阿塞拜疆新闻网5月13日消息称，阿塞拜疆国家石油公司SOCAR活动组织和公共关系部副部长Ibrahim Ahmadov表示，该公司计划在2020年下半年安装一个平台，以开发卡拉巴赫油田。

该平台的支撑单元几乎已准备就绪，其建设由国家石油公司的子公司Bos Shelf负责监督。Ahmadov说，平台上部的设计和施工正在进行中。

Ahmadov指出：“计划在平台上钻6口石油生产井和3口水井。还将根据海底技术在油田钻2口天然气生产井。”

SOCAR和挪威公司Equinor证实，2020年3月在阿塞拜疆里海地区发现了“卡拉巴赫”油田，位于巴库以东120公里。

2019年12月23日，该油田第一口评价井开始钻探。这口井是由“Dede Gorgud”浮动钻井平台在180米深的地方钻的。生产层位于3.4公里深的地方。

根据初步估计，在该油田发现的石油和天然气量足以满足其经济高效的开发需求。据初步估计，该油田地质储量超过6000万吨石油。

根据未来几年的市场情况，将做出最佳决定，以使用从油田提取的原材料。

SOCAR to develop "Karabakh" field in Q1 2020

Azerbaijan’s state oil company SOCAR plans to install a platform in the second half of 2020 to develop the Karabakh field, SOCAR’s Deputy Head of the event organization and public relations department Ibrahim Ahmadov has said.

The support unit of the platform is almost ready and its construction is overseen by a subsidiary of the State Oil Company, Bos Shelf. The design and construction of the upper block of the platform is underway, Ahmadov said.

"Six oil production wells and three water wells are planned to be drilled on the platform. Two gas production wells will also be drilled in the field on the basis of subsea technology," Ahmadov noted.

SOCAR and Norwegian company Equinor confirmed the discovery of "Karabakh" field in the Azerbaijani sector of the Caspian Sea, 120 km east of Baku in March 2020.

Drilling of the first appraisal well in the field began on December 23, 2019. The well was drilled by the “Dede Gorgud” floating rig at a depth of 180 meters. The productive layers are located at a depth of 3.4 kilometers.

According to preliminary estimates, oil and gas volumes found in the field are sufficient for its cost-effective development. The initial estimated geological reserves of the field amount to over 60 million tons of oil.

Depending on the market situation in the coming years, the best decision will be made to use the raw materials extracted from the field.
