Qabil Ashirov read more The State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) is preparing a plan
of measures to restore the operation of the onshore oil field
Zardab and for this reason, the production in the field has been
stopped, Azernews reports citing SOCAR.
According to the information received from SOCAR, although the
production of oil in the Zardab field has been stopped, the
production works are continued in the Muradkhanli and "Jafarli"
fields, which are part of the same block. There are 25 wells in
these fields and 32 tons of oil are produced from these wells
daily.
The total area of the "Muradkhanli", "Jafarli" and "Zardab"
fields is 642.2 square kilometers, and according to the agreement,
they are divided into exploration areas with rehabilitation. These
oil fields are located in the Yevlakh-Aghjabedi oil and gas region
of the Imishli district, Azerbaijan.
In March 2016, Zenith Energy and SOCAR signed an agreement on
production allocation, recovery, development, and exploration of
the onshore Muradkhanli, Jafarli, and Zardab oil fields block.
Production under the contract started in August 2016. In November
2020, Zenith Energy Ltd. said that the contract with SOCAR has
expired.
The oil fields are currently in the balance of SOCAR Azneft
Production Union and are operated by the Muradkhanli oil and gas
extraction complex of the Oil and Gas Extraction Department named
after Ali Amirov.
