New Gas- and Oil-Bearing Area Discovered 18220100b Baku VYSHKA in Russian 22 Jun 88 p 2
[Article by S. Garayev: "A New Area Has Been Opened Up"]
The drilling brigade supervised by foremen Rauf Agabekov and Gabib Amrakhov of the Dzharly Deep Exploratory Drilling Party opened up in the Milskaya Steppe a new oil-and-gas area—the Shykhbagi. This occurred after completion of the drilling of startup hole No 28. The geologists and the drillers have been prospecting here for a long time. However, the first two attempts were unsuccessful. Holes Nos 22 and 27, which previously were drilled through, proved to be nonproductive and were written off. But this did not break the confidence of the geologists that the area was petroliferous. And now their persistence has been crowned by success. Hole No 28, the third by count, justified the hopes and forecasts, Because of precise calculations, the drill bit touched down at the designed grade through the efforts of the foremen themselves, as well as of driller Aliovsat Talybov, drillers' helpers Akif Bekirov and Goshgar Nasirov, electrician Tofik Mirzoyev and other brigade members. "But we did not go to the designed depth," said foreman Rauf Agabek. At the 3,798-meter grade signs of oil and gas appeared, which we reported to the geologists, who unanimously decided to open up the formation here. Well completion went successfully. The well started to operate from the Maykop sediments as a gusher, which yielded more than 25 tons of crude and 50,000 cubic meters of gas per day. The oilfield workers of the NGDU [oil and gas recovery administration] Shirvanneft, putting the well on its books, rapidly laid a pipeline 3 kilometers long.
