Since December 2019, the joint venture has been working with the use of modern technologies to increase oil production at the Khartoum, East Khartoum and “South Alamyshyk” fields, which have been under development for a long time.
Since the beginning of the operation, $10.7 million has been disbursed ($ 13.9 million under the project), including $3.1 million in 2021.
In 2021, as a result of the implementation of 43 geological and technical measures, daily production of 27.3 tons of crude oil and 3.9 thousand tons of additional oil was achieved.
As part of the investment project, a new track heater was installed at the “South Alamyshyk” oil treatment plant, replacement of oil collectors, and a high-pressure water pipeline with a total length of 19.6 km was laid.
A new chemical analytical laboratory was also built and commissioned, which received the approval of technical competence from the accreditation center of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
Works on installation of tele mechanics system equipment at 20 wells of the ‘South Alamyshyk” field have been completed. Commissioning is currently underway. This year, it is planned to expand tele mechanics at 20 wells of the Khartoum and East Khartoum fields.
In addition, as part of investment projects, energy-saving equipment is being introduced at production facilities to reduce costs. For this purpose, pilot field tests of two hydraulic drives of rod pumps were successfully carried out.
According to the results of the conducted OPI, it is planned to introduce six hydraulic drives, which will allow to achieve a reduction in operating maintenance costs of up to 80% per well. Also, when using a hydraulic drive, a reduction in electricity consumption of up to 50% is achieved, the press service of “Uzbekneftegaz” JSC reports.
