New Breakthroughs in Shale Gas Exploration

New Breakthroughs in Shale Gas Exploration
Sinopec's first shale gas test well group, Zhenye 1 well group, in Daozhen County, Guizhou Province, has completed gas testing and stable daily gas production of 75000-130000 cubic meters, with an average of 109000 cubic meters per day. This was obtained by Sinopec outside the Sichuan Basin
New breakthroughs in atmospheric shale gas exploration.To ensure national energy security and optimize energy structure Provide favorable target areas and strategic succession areas.
Nova Energy company introduced that Atmospheric shale gas field is a gas reservoir with a small pressure coefficient, characterized by wide distribution and large total resources, but with low single well production and high extraction difficulty.
Sinopec East China Oil and Gas Branch is problem oriented and carries out collaborative research and development according to the integrated geological engineering concept of "well drilling, layer drilling, and fracture construction". It explores different well spacing and staggered development, optimizes large-scale reservoir transformation processes, and provides technical reserves for the development of normal pressure shale gas in the region.
High quality development of China's shale gas industry
On November 28, 2012, Sinopec deployed the drilling of Jiaoye 1HF well in Fuling District, Chongqing to test and obtain high-yield gas flow, marking a major breakthrough in China's shale gas exploration and opening the curtain for Fuling shale gas exploration and development and the accelerated development of China's shale gas industry.
In 2017, the first atmospheric shale gas field in China was built - Nanchuan Shale Gas Field.
In 2018, Fuling Shale Gas Field became the first shale gas field in China to have a production capacity of 10 billion cubic meters.
In 2020, the first deep shale gas field in China with proven reserves exceeding 100 billion cubic meters was completed - the Weirong Shale Gas Field Phase I Project, with an annual production capacity of 3 billion cubic meters, equivalent to the annual gas consumption of 16 million households, continuously injecting new impetus into the development of clean energy.
