The average annual production of JSC Embamunaigas is more than 2.7 mln. tonnes.
Embamunaigas is currently developing 31 fields. In the cross-section of these fields, productive formations are characterised by different geological and physical properties of reservoirs and physical and chemical properties of oil. Most of the oil fields have entered the late stage of development, and the share of hard-to-recover reserves is steadily increasing. Stabilization of oil production over the last few years has been achieved through the application of a set of measures: drilling of new wells, overhaul and repair of wells, systematic work with the well stock, increase in the exploitation rate, increase in the time between repairs, introduction of advanced technologies and optimization of the field development system.
To increase the oil recovery factor, Embamunaigas JSC, along with traditional methods of oil recovery enhancement, applies new technologies with the involvement of leading Kazakhstani research institutes. New technologies are being actively introduced to increase the inter-repair period (IRP) of wells. The following methods are currently used in the program to improve the oil recovery factor hot water injection, hydraulic fracturing, selective compaction of the well network.
Due to new recalculations of reserves and an increase in initial geological oil reserves, the average oil recovery factor (ORF) for the 31 fields under development at Embamunaigas JSC is 0.279 fractions of a unit*.
