Abstract

An Agreement for cooperation has been reached between PJSC TATNEFT and Uzbekneftegaz Company to produce marginal mature fields in Ferghana petroleum basin using innovative and proven EOR technologies. In order to implement clauses of the Agreement for cooperation, an option of further development of remaining oil reserves in Andizhan, West Palvantash and Palvantash fields has been considered, with selection and customization of TATNEFT’s innovative horizontal drilling techniques in terms of Uzbekistan field conditions.

    Key words:

    Ferghana petroleum basin, Jurassic, Cretaceous, Paleogene, and Neogene deposits, investment climate, Agreement for cooperation, mature field, horizontal technology, oil recovery increase, technology customization, oil reserve recovery
