Intelligent steering drilling, a class-A strategic leading technology of China Academy of Science (CAS), has made notable strides in application at a production well in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
The breakthrough of this cutting-edge equipment system and relevant research are important for safeguarding the country's energy resources.
The cutting-edge technology comprises the homegrown ultra-deep azimuthal electromagnetic resistivity imaging and three-dimension target precise navigation.
It allows for precise characterization of underground oil and gas reservoir structures while accurately guiding the bits to the optimum mining position and gaining a high-yield industrial oil and gas flow.
Production testing conducted in early August this year revealed impressive results. The production well yielded 13.5 tonnes of oil and 42,000 cubic meters of natural gas daily, achieving about five times the output of neighboring wells.
The geological reserves were confirmed to hold about 510 million cubic meters of natural gas and 160,000 tons of condensate oil from the lower Shushanhe Formation of the Cretaceous System.
This marked the first successful breakthrough in oil and gas extraction from these specific reservoirs, which serves as a testimony to the reliability of the emerging technology that enables efficient, low-cost drilling of China's deep oil and gas resources.
