The Yuejin 3-3 well, designed to be Asia's deepest oil-and-gas well, started drilling on Monday in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Located in Taklamakan Desert, the well is under an ultra-deep drilling project launched by China's Sinopec. It's scheduled to be drilled to the designed depth of 9,472 meters within 170 days.
