Naftogaz launched the first tight gas field - Svyatohirske
The Exploration and Production Division of Naftogaz has launched a new gas treatment plant (GTP) at the Svyatohirske tight reservoirs field. And the gas brought to the required quality standards is supplied to the system of the main gas pipelines. This was stated on the Facebook page by the Chair of Naftogaz, Andriy Kobolyev.
Recall that the Svyatohirske field is located in the middle of the Yuzivska area recently acquired by Naftogaz.
In addition to the commissioning of a new state-of-the-art GTP that can process 1 mcm of gas per day, 26 km of the pipeline was built and three wells were tied-in. The wells were drilled in low permeability layers, from which it is much more difficult to produce gas. However, it is possible if modern technologies are used. The company has acquired a wide aperture 3D seismic.
Using this data, another well is being drilled at the so-called sweet spot - the area of the highest gas concentration. Based on the drilling results, a decision on the further field development program will be made.
