According to him, the filed has increased production of oil from 3,000-4,000 tons to 5,000-10,000 tons per day. “We may increase the fuel production even more if another ten boreholes are repaired,” said Ismatov, “More than 1.5 million somonis are needed for this.”
He added that rehabilitation works on the Qizil-Tumshuq field had allowed increasing production of natural gas from 40,000 cubic meters to nearly 60,000 cubic meters per day.
