OGDCL revives Dars West-2 Well to boost production

December 24, 2024 (MLN): Oil & Gas Development Company Limited (PSX: OGDCL) has successfully revived the Dars West-2 Well, which has begun hydrocarbon production from the B-Sand of the Lower Goru Formation, the company's filing on PSX revealed today. 

This achievement underscores the company's continued efforts to enhance hydrocarbon recovery through innovative techniques.

As previously announced by the Company on December 8, 2023, the Dars West-2 Well was completed in the C-Sand of the Lower Goru Formation and connected to the production system on January 31, 2024.

However, the well stopped flowing on September 24, 2024, due to a decline in wellhead production.

Subsequent analysis, including a Bottom Hole Pressure & Temperature (BHP&T) survey, indicated no further production potential in the C-Sand interval.

Based on this assessment, the C-Sand was isolated, and the well was successfully perforated and completed in the B-Sand of the Lower Goru Formation.

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 Kunar Pasakhi Deep-Tando Allah Yar Plant and integrated into the Sui Southern Gas Company Limited (SSGCL) network, contributing to the national gas supply.

OGDCL operates the Dars West Development and Production Lease (D&PL) with a 77.5% working interest, while GHPL holds a 22.5% carried interest as a joint venture partner.

The successful revival of the Dars West-2 Well highlights OGDCL's expertise in good optimization and its dedication to maximizing production from existing assets.
