2022-08-05

On August 4, 2022, well YK29-23H2, drilled by ZPEC Rig 17 Team, was drilled to 4,810 meters and successfully completed with a horizontal footage of 1,469 meters. This broke the previous record of 1,380 meters for the longest horizontal footage in the Yan113-133 Project of SCP.  Party A, the SCP Yanbei Project Department, immediately sent a congratulatory letter and awarded ZPEC Rig 17 Team a 50,000 RMB bonus.

 

Well YK29-23H2 is located in Zichang City, Yan'an City, Shanbei Province.  Since spudding, ZPEC Rig 17 Team has overcome multiple problems, such as lost circulation, complex formation conditions, strong abrasiveness of the fourth section, poor drill-abilities, etc.. On July 26, ZPEC Rig 17 Team completed the drilling of the 1,200-meter design horizontal section. However, because of the high probability of penetration in sandstone section and good gas detection in the horizontal section, Party A decided to continue to extend the length of the horizontal section. Facing new challenges, ZPEC Drilling Company, together with ZPEC Yan'an Project, the rig team planned ahead according to the characteristics of the area. They made circulation loss-prevention measures, formulated excellent drilling measures, optimized the drilling plan, refined technical measures, and drilled scientifically. The efficient completion of the entire well construction was highly commended by Party A.
