ChinOil develops new trends

This is the search for optimal well completion based on best practices.

The Head of the Drilling Department says: “Let’s say that we have already drilled a thousand wells and somewhere we have reached an optimal completion (which at the lowest speed with the same reservoir properties gives the best well performance), and somewhere it was the most successful. Thus, we can, having described past experience with the help of graphs and multidimensional models, combine it with the best results of other objects, including other companies. The model will be constantly optimized”.

Wherever there is a task of optimization, digital solutions are always more efficient. At the end of the first quarter of 2018, during the reconstruction of the well at the ChinOil field, the sidetrack with horizontal tailing-in of more than 750 meters was completed. It is a record indicator for the company. The total length of the well was 3.7 thousand meters.
