Saneg specialists have made an exciting discovery in the Andijan field.

By employing the use of advanced technologies and innovative methods of studying well sections, the specialists successfully identified a layer of pale pink formation* in the Andijan field, located in the Khojaabad district of the Andijan region. 

This breakthrough was made possible through additional geological and technical measures at one of the flooded wells. The application of gamma- and neutron-neutron logging, in collaboration with an international company, provided updated geophysical research data. Based on this data, drilling and blasting operations were carried out within the 320-323 meters range.

As a result, it was possible to obtain an influx of oil and associated gas yielding a daily flow rate of 8 tons. This achievement is considered significant, given the oil-bearing characteristics of the region.

Tulkin Tursunbaevich Yusupov, the Executive Director of Saneg, expressed his appreciation for the modern technologies employed at their facilities. He emphasized that these technologies enabled them to identify oil reserves that had previously gone unnoticed. To further enhance production at this newly discovered site, Saneg plans to drill 12 additional wells and undertake two side shaft cutting operations, along with various other geological and technical measures. This ambitious approach is estimated to result in an additional daily increase of 46 tons of oil.

It should be noted that the oil from the Andijan field possesses favorable qualities, such as being light, low-sulfur, and low-viscosity. These properties contribute to the production of high-quality products during the processing of raw materials. Currently, the field comprises 135 wells with a combined daily flow rate of 75 tons.

*Historical context: The term "suite" entered the professional lexicon in 1881 at the II International Geological Congress in Bologna. The suite refers to rocks with a dominant color, and scientific works from that era already mentioned names like the pale pink suite of the Neogene of Fergana.
