ERIELL Group performed hydraulic fracturing (hydraulic fracturing) for the first time at the facilities of Jizzakh Petroleum JV LLC in the Fergana region. At the Varyk field, two proppant hydraulic fracturing operations were carried out with a depth of oil reservoir from 3600 to 3800 meters.
So, after hydraulic fracturing at the Varyk field, the flow rate of well No. 34 increased from 0.7 m3 / day to 30.6 m3 / day, and well No. 38 - from 0.5 m3 / day to 24.6 m3 / day.
Hydraulic fracturing (hydraulic fracturing) is a way to stimulate oil production, without which it is difficult to imagine the modern oil industry. Its development made possible the shale revolution in the United States, and in other countries, thanks to hydraulic fracturing, access was gained to the development of fields and reserves that until recently were considered unprofitable.
The international oilfield services group ERIELL is a leader in the application of new technologies, including stimulation and well completion. The introduction of hydraulic fracturing technology at the facilities of Uzbekistan began in 2018. To date, ERIELL Group has performed more than 100 acid and proppant fracturing operations using the latest technological equipment manufactured by Jereh (China) and ACT (Germany). The use of advanced technologies and world experience with the involvement of foreign specialists made it possible to achieve high results in carrying out this type of operations and to increase the efficiency of the development of the company's assets.
The ERIELL group of companies and Jizzakh Petroleum JV LLC inextricably link long-term development with the search for efficient production technologies. Increasing the oil recovery factor and involving in the development of reserves, the development of which was previously unprofitable, are important components of the companies' technological strategy. The implementation of this strategy already today allows the use of advanced methods of enhanced oil recovery, which in the future can be used for the implementation of other projects.
reference
Hydraulic fracturing (hydraulic fracturing) is a way to stimulate oil production. It consists in the fact that a mixture of fluid and a special proppant (proppant) is injected into the formation under high pressure. In the process of supplying the mixture, highly conductive channels (hydraulic fractures) are formed, connecting the wellbore and the formation. These fractures provide an inflow of oil, which otherwise would not have entered the well. In multi-stage hydraulic fracturing (MSHF), several hydraulic fracturing operations are performed in one horizontal wellbore. Thus, a multiple increase in the coverage area of ??the formation with one well is ensured.
Proppant is an artificial proppant required to keep the fracture open after hydraulic fracturing in the well.
