KARACHI - Oil & Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL) has announced the successful revival of the Dars West-2 Well, which has commenced hydrocarbon production from the B-Sand of the Lower Goru Formation. The operation reflects the company's ongoing efforts to maximize hydrocarbon recovery using innovative techniques.
The Dars West-2 Well, which is situated in the Tando Allah Yar district of Sindh Province, Pakistan, was initially completed in the C-Sand of the Lower Goru Formation and integrated into the production system on January 31, 2024. The well, however, ceased to flow on September 24 due to a decline in wellhead production.
After a comprehensive analysis, including a Bottom Hole Pressure & Temperature survey, it was determined that the C-Sand interval had no further production prospects. Consequently, the C-Sand was isolated, and the well was successfully perforated and completed in the B-Sand interval.
As a result of these efforts, the Dars West-2 Well is now producing 200 barrels per day (BPD) of oil, 8.0 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) of gas, and 37 metric tons per day (MTD) of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). The produced gas is processed at OGDCL's Kunnar Pasakhi Deep-Tando Allah Yar Plant and has been incorporated into the network of Sui Southern Gas Company Limited (SSGCL), contributing to the national gas supply.
OGDCL, with a 77.5% working interest and serving as the operator, and GHPL, as a joint venture partner holding a 22.5% carried interest, operate within the Dars West Development and Production Lease (D&PL). The successful revival of the Dars West-2 Well showcases OGDCL's capabilities in well optimization and its commitment to enhancing production from its existing assets.
The information regarding the revival and production commencement of the Dars West-2 Well is disclosed in compliance with Section 96 of the Securities Act, 2015, and Clause 5.6.1(a) of PSX Regulations. This update is based on a press release statement issued by the company.
