據3月26日Neftegaz.RU報道，在里海阿塞拜疆地區shafagi - asiman區塊的一口勘探井中發現了第一個凝析氣藏，其深度為7189米。成功完成了該油田Fasila地層的測井和鉆井作業。

shafagi-asiman區塊的勘探工作是SOCAR和BP的一個聯合項目。為了確定確切的油氣儲量，項目各方將制定一項技術計劃，在結構拱的方向上再鉆一口水平井。

2020年，SOCAR的里海鉆井公司開始使用Heydar Aliyev半潛式鉆井平臺在623米深的海床上鉆探探井。BP是勘探鉆井的運營商。

阿塞拜疆說：“BP和SOCAR約有30年的合作歷史。在此期間，開展了許多具有全球意義的項目。其中包括ACG區塊、BTC管道、Shah Deniz、SGC及其組成部分--SCP、TANAP和TAP管道的開發等聯合項目。”

BP是阿塞拜疆石油和天然氣行業最大的外國投資者。shafag - asiman區塊位于巴庫東南125公里處，占地面積1100平方公里。它是在1961年的一次地震勘探中發現的。

SOCAR和BP在該項目中擁有同等股份。

Azerbaijan’s SOCAR made the 1st gas condensate discovery in the Shafag-Asiman block

1st gas-condensate reserves were found at a depth of 7189 m in an exploration well drilled on the Shafag-Asiman block in the Azerbaijani sector of the Caspian Sea.

Herewith the logging and drilling of the Fasila stratum of the field was successfully completed.

To define the exact volume of hydrocarbon reserves, the parties of the project are going to work out a technical plan for drilling of an additional lateral well in the direction of the structure’s arch.

Exploration work on the Shafag-Asiman block is a joint project of SOCAR and bp.

According to the PSA, bp is the operator of exploration drilling.

In 2020 SOCAR's Caspian Drilling Company’s started drilling the exploratory well on the 623-m deep seabed by Heydar Aliyev Semi-Submersible Drilling Rig.

Azerbaijancommented:

The history of cooperation between bp and SOCAR comprises a period of about 30 years

During this period, many projects of global importance have been carried out

These include such joint projects as the development of ACG block, BTC pipeline, the Shah Deniz, the SGC and its elements - the SCP, TANAP and TAP pipelines

Currently, the cooperation between SOCAR and bp has strategic importance

bp is the biggest foreign investor in Azerbaijan's oil & gas industry

The Shafag-Asiman block lies 125 km to the south-east of Baku and covers an area of 1100 square km.

It was discovered in 1961 during a seismic exploration.

SOCAR and bp have equal shares in the project.
