KOC-03 well successfully stimulated!

Last week Viking Services successfully executed an extensive stimulation campaign and injectivity test for Transmark Turkey Gülpinar on the well KOC-3 in the Kocaköy license area in Çanakkale, Turkey. KOC-3 was drilled and completed in 2016, with disappointing production and injection results.

However, a series of carefully designed well interventions led to a remarkable decrease in back pressure from the well during water injection. As a result, there is an increased understanding of the reservoir and well behavior and it is now believed that KOC-3 can even outperform the neighboring KOC-2 well in production.
