UGV increases 3D seismic scope to build up hydrocarbon reserves

Ukrgasvydobuvannya JSC increases the scope of 3D-seismic to increase hydrocarbon reserves and improve the success degree of exploration drilling. This is reported on the company’s Facebook page, in the new GeoTransformation section.

According to the report, 3D wide-aperture seismic surveys were completed last month at the Bezpalivska-South-Bezpalivska area. 275 sq.km. survey covered the Bezpalivske field, Komsomolska area and the North-Yefremivska section, the license for which UGV acquired last year. In the course of research results obtaining, it is already planned to drill a new exploration well in 2021.

The company notes that high-quality research using modern methods directly affects the success of the search for new hydrocarbon reserves. To determine the locations for drilling prospecting and exploration wells, we must create a portfolio of geological data, analyse them in detail and select the so-called “sweet spots» – concentrations of hydrocarbons. The more accurate the analysis of UGV specialists is the less risks during the drilling of the new wells arise.

The seismic works were performed by external contractors. Data processing and interpretation was performed using modern methods of international Paradigm and Schlumberger companies
