The company is boosting production and expanding gas pipeline infrastructure to ensure uninterrupted supply of hydrocarbons during the winter period.

On December 5, following hydraulic fracturing, the flow rate of two wells at Koratepa field reached 110,000 m³ of gas and 17 t of oil per day.

The daily production rate of Koratepa-12 well increased from 0 to 50,000 m³ of gas and 3 t of oil.

The daily production rate of Koratepa-16 well increased from 20,000 to 60,000 m³ of gas and from 8 to 14 t of oil.

These undertakings rely on modern equipment and advanced technologies. To avoid adverse effects on the environment, upon completion of relevant works, the soil from the adjacent territory will be rehabilitated.

Construction of three gas pipeline strings continues:

• “Nazarkuduk CP – Shurtanneftegaz” (67 km),
• “Tandircha CP – Shurtanneftegaz” (45 km),
• “Chigil CP – Mubarek GPP” (110 km).

The average speed of round-the-clock construction is 4km/day.

Preparation of “Nazarkuduk CP – Shurtanneftegaz” pipeline for pneumatic testing is underway.

Total for December 5:

• 29,400 t of pipes shipped
• 17,400 t of pipes received
• 56.2 km of trenches dug
