IDC Completes New Oil Well at Al-Zubair Oil Field

By John Lee.

The Iraqi Drilling Company (IDC) has successfully completed the drilling of the new oil well at Zubair oil field in Basra.

Well Zubair/607 was drilled to a depth of 3,533 meters in 36 days.

This achievement is part of a contract with the Italian company ENI to drill 37 oil wells at the Al-Zubair oil field in Basra, in collaboration with Schlumberger.

The Zubair/607 well is the 24th well completed by the company in this project. The drilling operations utilized the IDC-37 drilling rig, with a horsepower capacity of 1,500. Following this completion, the rig will be relocated within the same field to begin drilling the Zubair/600 oil well.

The Iraqi Drilling Company allocated two modern drilling rigs, IDC-37 and IDC-38, for the execution of this project.
