A new production oil well of more than 3460 meters depth was built in Yamal-Nenetsk Autonomous region

A new horizontal production oil-well of more than 3460 meters depth was built in Yamal-Nenetsk Autonomous region. A drilling rig VZBT 3900 EK equipped with a top drive DQ50B-JH was used for this purpose. A top drive field service support was provided by SLC service engineers working 24 hours 7 days a week under service agreement with adrilling company.

The DQ50B-JH as well as the DQ50BQ-JH and DQBQIII-JH is the most popular top drive model among drilling companies.  It allows to build fishbone wells of up to 5000 meters depth (using drilling 144mm tubes) as quickly as possible. The top drive is equipped with an asynchronous frequency controlled electric motor of 500hp power. This allows drilling with a smooth shaft speed changes in the range from 0 to 180 rpm and with a working torque of up to 40 kNm.
