Cue能源计划在新西兰海域增加钻井数量

SYDNEY, Australia – The Maari field offshore New Zealand now has a total of 10 producers and one water injector in service, according to partner Cue Energy.No further drilling is currently planned, with the priority being to maximize production by optimizing up-time and deliverability of the wells.The sole naturally flowing well is MR6A, which is now exhibiting increased water cut and which accounts for a large portion of the field’s declining production rates.All other nine producers rely on electric submersible pumps for continued production and operator OMV is optimizing use of these and topsides facilities to enhance production.OMV is also adding additional perforations in producing wells to improve production, as was the case with MR8A, where action lifted output by 1,600 b/d.Otherwise, Cue has withdrawn from its three remaining licenses offshore New Zealand.
