New 'Borisoj' Field Opens in Kashkadarya Region

During the testing of the exploration well, specialists recorded an industrial inflow of natural gas and condensate with a volume of 300-400 thousand cubic meters per day. Drilling began on August 5 in the Shurtan area, with the well depth reaching 3,159 meters (according to Podrobno.uz, 3.1 thousand meters). The tests were conducted by employees of Uzbekgeofizika JSC. The inflow of hydrocarbons was obtained from carbonate deposits at a depth interval of 2,842 to 3,001 meters. Currently, specialists are studying the characteristics of the productive layers to assess the reserves and potential of the site. After the completion of the tests, the extracted gas is planned to be sent for processing from October 15 for further shipment to consumers. By the end of the year, it is planned to drill a second exploration well at the field.
