New Well Boosts Abuzar Oil Output

The first well drilled in the Asmari reservoir of Abuzar Oilfield in the Persian Gulf to increase crude oil production has now become operational, the head of petroleum engineering at the Iranian Offshore Oil Company said.
“With the development plans implemented in the past few years to produce oil from the upper Asmari layer of Abuzar Oilfield, the first well has come on stream now and plans are underway to drill five to eight more wells to add between 6,000 and 10,000 barrels of crude oil to the field’s output,” the Oil Ministry’s news agency Shana quoted Javad Rostami as saying.
“So far, development and production projects in Abuzar Oilfield has been focused on Ghar, Bergen and Dammam reservoirs. By the end of last Iranian year [March 20, 2021], 1,194 million barrels of oil from the Ghar reservoir, 13.5 million barrels from the Bergen reservoir and 6.7 million barrels from the Dammam reservoir were extracted,” he added.
