Another well was drilled ahead of schedule on the territory of Ustyurt

The work carried out by Uzbekneftegaz JSC to digitalize gas production processes, apply new approaches, and reduce drilling time is yielding results.

Last year, information was given that well No. 17 at the Kuyi Sharkiy Berdak field was drilled in 82 days, which according to the plan was to be drilled in 150 days.

As a result of the application of this experiment, drilling operations at well No. 20 were completed in 83 days. Drilling operations at the well were started on December 25, 2023 and completed on March 17 of this year.
The drilling period was reduced to 64 days due to the equipment of the drilling rig, the complete digitalization of the control of the "day plan", as well as the efforts of industry workers.

This is the second best result obtained for drilling wells with a design depth of 4,500 meters in the Ustyurt region.

It was noted that the hard work of the drilling crew workers, who are doing an excellent job, despite the cold winter days in the Ustyurt region, will be deservedly encouraged by the management.
