Preparations for drilling on Oguz launched

The Gurtulush semi-submersible drilling rig has been tugged to Oguz prospect with drilling of the first exploration well expected to start next week, ExxonMobil said Friday.
Gurtulush is currently being mounted at the drilling site. Drilling is expected to start without any overhaul delays, since the rig had encountered no serious problems in drilling of the second exploration well on Talysh Daniz / Lankaran-Daniz.
The Oguz prospect is operated by ExxonMobil, which holds a 50% interest stake. The other 50% is held by SOCAR.*
