JSC Ukrgazvydobuvannia has resumed the work of two previously stopped wells in Poltava region with a production capacity of 250,000 cubic meters per day, the company said in the Telegram channel on Monday.
“Specialists of Ukrgazvydobuvannia resumed the life of two wells that had previously stopped producing gas due to the depletion of gas-bearing horizons. Now, after an overhaul, we are extracting about 250,000 cubic meters of gas per day from them,” it informed.
As the company explained, in order to resume the work of wells, the specialists of Ukrgazvydobuvannia decided to use other promising horizons, for which they replaced old worn-out pipes and perforated them.
Both workover operations were performed by the internal service contractor UGV-Service.
“Despite the danger and difficulties with logistics and the provision of necessary materials, the employees of the branch continue to perform both basic repairs and highly complex operations to remove emergency equipment, prepare for hydraulic fracturing operations and test wells after development and exploratory drilling,” Ukrgazvydobuvannia said.
Thanks to an overhaul at one of the mentioned wells, an opportunity has also opened up to increase gas reserves that were not previously taken into account.
As reported, in January-June 2022 Ukrgazvydobuvannia reduced the supply of commercial gas by 1.5% compared to the same period in 2021, to 6.31 billion cubic meters.
