Exploration & Production

Exploration

In accordance with Asker Munai Too Refinery’s strategy approved by the management, the key objectives of the company’s exploration and drilling program are defined by ensuring replenishment of liquid hydrocarbon reserves and achieving exploration success by 95% within the next 5 years, development of advanced technologies and innovative solutions will assist the company achieve it’s goals.

The company use a industry unique seismic data analogues recording system, the use of a 3D winter tests of this system helps us to maximize fields projects, The results exceeded our expectations – geological information contents, productivity was increased significantly and the possibility of working in remote areas was demonstrated.

Asker Munai Too Refinery is developing methods for increasing the efficiency success for exploratory drilling, using advanced technologies for processing and interpretation of seismic datas. In particular, innovative approaches have been used to take into account of the upper part of the section to minimize the forecast error of structures.

At the design stage, finite-difference modeling of the wave field is carried out in order to select the optimal parameters for seismic surveying. Now the geologist spends lesser time observing, analyzing of geological information and evaluating matured fields for data processing with the help of artificial intelligence.

We achieved high success rate on the 27 licensed exploration wells was completed onshore and over 6,778 square kilometers of 3D seismic survey were completed.
