Qinghai Oilfield 100,000 tonnes of shale oil pilot test area capacity construction Full launch
On the morning of March 28, Qinghai Oilfield held a ceremony for the launch of the Hero Ridge Shale Oil Project Department and the drilling of the Yingpage 1H pilot test platform in Mangye City, Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, marking the full-scale start of the capacity construction of the 100,000-ton pilot test area in the Hero Ridge Shale Oil Dry Chai Gou Block of Qinghai Oilfield.
It is understood that the pilot test uses 8 horizontal wells on a large platform in a three-dimensional deployment mode, with 4 rigs being constructed at the same time and implemented in two rounds, deploying 8 horizontal wells on the same platform at the same time which is the first time in the history of oil and gas development in the Qinghai oilfield.
The aim of the trial is to explore and form a supporting technology and integrated construction model for the efficient development of shale oil with Qaidam characteristics, and to build the first 100,000 tonne capacity shale oil production demonstration area in Qinghai Oilfield.
The 100,000-tonne pilot test area in the Dry Chai Gou block will be built according to the advanced concept of "one whole six" and the whole life cycle project management model to ensure efficient production.
The technology will adopt the most advanced international development method of "horizontal well volume fracturing and storage + pressure-controlled elastic extraction", "vertical stacking and staggered three-dimensional well network" and "intensive cutting + limit flow restriction "The company has been carrying out comprehensive technical research and development, and has finally formed a series of life-cycle technologies for drilling, fracturing, stubbing and drainage of oil from the Heroic Ridge Shale, so as to accumulate technology and experience for the large-scale and effective exploitation of oil from the Qaidam Shale.
The technology and experience will be accumulated for the effective exploitation of Qaidam Shale oil on a large scale.
