Testing times at Cambay-72



By Upstream staff 

Australian player Oilex is set to resume work on the re-entry and test programme at the Cambay-72 well, at the Cambay field in Gujarat, India, this week.

Operator Oilex and its partner Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation are planning to run a cased hole test of the Oligocene OS II sandstone, the primary objective of the Cambay-72 well.

The John Energy 50MT work-over rig has been mobilised to Cambay-72 and is currently rigging up ahead of re-entering the well and starting tests.

Oilex said that following wireline logging to confirm cement and casing integrity, a completion assembly will be run, surface equipment installed and the interval 1514 -1520 metres perforated.

Reservoir fluids will be allowed to flow into a surface separator while the production potential and fluid properties of the OS II reservoir are assessed.
