June 4, London – JKX Oil & Gas plc, the holding company of JV Poltava Gas and Oil Company (hereinafter – JV PPC) published the results on the drilled IGN-149 well (Ignativske field) on the London Stock Exchange.

In May 2021, the drilling was completed and the new IGN-149 well was put on production at the Ignativske field. During the test, the initial flow rates of oil were: 135.3 t / day and natural gas: 106.6 mcm / day via 11mm choke.

After performing the hydrodynamic surveys in the well, Ign-149 was shut in for the pressure transient analysis.  The results indicated a slight depletion of the formation. The works were carried out by employees of the JV PPC production department, using a wireline unit and down hole tools.

After that, the well was opened via 8mm choke for the survey on steady-state filtration modes. Flow rates were: oil 58.0 t / day;  gas 64.5 mcm / day.

At the moment, the tests are being carried out to determine the optimal well operation mode.
