We are pleased to announce that SOCAR AQSH, a comprehensive drilling and well services management company, has brought a modern drilling rig belonging to an international manufacturer to Azerbaijan for the first time in its history to perform onshore drilling services.

According to the information provided by the company to "APA-Economics", this is based on SOCAR AQSH's many years of experience in applying the latest technologies and new management methods to implement complex projects and operations of its clients both at home and abroad.

The implementation of onshore drilling operations is of great importance for the energy industry and economy of Azerbaijan.

So, through this device, along with new drilling projects, it is possible to extract residual oil and gas reserves in fields that have been in operation for a long time at the expense of drilling additional wells.

Also, the drilling of exploratory and exploration wells in areas that still need to be studied will be more favorable from a geological point of view.

Samir Mollayev, CEO of SOCAR AQSH, said: "The application of such new techniques and technologies in the drilling industry will have a positive effect on the drilling of wells with large deviations, taking and analyzing core samples, conducting geological-geophysical research and the development model of the field.

This, in turn, will boost oil production."

Having 15 years of experience and drilling more than 140 wells to date, SOCAR AQSH will continue its successful operation by applying innovative approaches in the country's drilling industry, as well as providing safe and reliable solutions.

It should be noted that SOCAR AQS is a complex drilling and well services management company founded in 2007 by the State Oil Company of the Azerbaijan Republic (SOCAR), Nobel Energy and Absheron Gazma LLC (AQS).



SOCAR AQSH has been a member of the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) since 2009 and operates in full compliance with all applicable international standards.
