Islamabad, Dec 24: The Oil & Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL) has successfully revived the Dars West-2 Well, achieving hydrocarbon production from a newly targeted interval, the B-Sand of the Lower Goru Formation, in Tando Allah Yar, Sindh.
Initially completed in the C-Sand of the Lower Goru Formation and integrated into the production system on January 31, 2024, the well ceased production on September 24, 2024, due to a decline in wellhead output. A comprehensive Bottom Hole Pressure & Temperature (BHP&T) survey confirmed no further production potential in the C-Sand interval, prompting OGDCL to isolate it and re-perforate the well in the B-Sand interval.
The revived 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 gas is processed at OGDCL’s Kunnar Pasakhi Deep-Tando Allah Yar Plant and fed into the Sui Southern Gas Company Limited (SSGCL) network, bolstering the national gas supply.
Located within the Dars West Development and Production Lease (D&PL), the well is operated by OGDCL (77.5% working interest), with GHPL as a joint venture partner (22.5% carried). This achievement demonstrates OGDCL’s expertise in optimizing existing assets and underscores its commitment to enhancing hydrocarbon production to meet the country’s energy needs.
