The company is supposed to resume drilling of a large N430 well after accomplishing of the 3D seismic survey. Opening of the well’s floor was expected at the depth of 3100 meters, however, it has been opened at the depth of 3800 meters. The geologists conducted analyses of the data obtained and decided to continue drilling till 3850 meters. 140 tons of mixture have been extracted from the well, from which 30% was water and the rest is the oil.
