The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has announced the discovery of hydrocarbon deposits in the Kolmani River II Well on the Upper Benue Trough, Gongola Basin, in the North-Eastern part of the country.
It would be recalled that drilling of the Kolmani River II Well was flagged-off in a colourful ceremony by President Muhammadu Buhari on the 2nd of February, 2019.
A press release by the Corporation’s Acting Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division, Mr. Samson Makoji, stated that NNPC acquired 435.54km2 of 3D Seismic Data over Kolmani Prospect in the Upper Benue Trough, Gongola Basin. This was to evaluate Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company (SNEPCo) Kolmani River 1 Well Discovery of 33 BCF and explore deeper levels.
The well was drilled with “IKENGA RIG 101” to a total depth of 13,701feet encountering oil and gas in several levels. A Drill Stem Test (DST) is currently on-going to confirm the commercial viability and flow of the Kolmani River reservoirs.
The Corporation explained that on Thursday 10th October, 2019, at 18:02hours, one of the reservoirs was perforated and hydrocarbon started flowing to the well head at 21:20hours in which the gas component was flared to prevent air charge around the Rig.
Preliminary reports indicate that the discovery consists of gas, condensate and light sweet oil of API gravity ranging from 38 to 41 found in stacked siliciclastic cretaceous reservoirs of Yolde, Bima Sandstone and Pre-Bima formations.
Computation of hydrocarbon volume is on-going and will be announced in due course.
The Corporation has also acquired additional 1183km2 of 3D seismic data over highly prospective areas of Gongola Basin with a view to evaluating the full hydrocarbon potential of the Basin.
NNPC has deployed world class cutting-edge technologies including Surface Geochemistry, Ground Gravity/Magnetic, Stress Field Detection, Full Tensor Gradiometry aerial surveys to de-risk exploration in the frontier basins. The NNPC plans to drill additional wells for full evaluation of the hydrocarbon volume in the Gongola Basin.
It would be recalled that during the spud-in ceremony of Kolmani River II, President Muhammadu stated the commitment of his administration to the exploration for Oil and Gas in the frontier basins in the entire length and breadth of the country. The basins include: the Benue Trough, Chad Basin, Sokoto and Bida Basins.
He also stated that attention would be given to the Dahomey and Anambra Basins which have already witnessed oil and gas discoveries.
The discovery of oil and gas in commercial quantity in the Gongola Basin will attract foreign investment, generate employment for people to earn income and increase government revenues.

Sistemas de balanceo: fundamental para el funcionamiento fluido y efectivo de las maquinarias.
En el ambito de la avances contemporanea, donde la rendimiento y la seguridad del equipo son de alta importancia, los aparatos de calibracion cumplen un papel vital. Estos equipos dedicados estan concebidos para ajustar y regular partes dinamicas, ya sea en dispositivos de fabrica, automoviles de movilidad o incluso en electrodomesticos caseros.
Para los profesionales en soporte de aparatos y los tecnicos, operar con equipos de balanceo es fundamental para asegurar el rendimiento estable y seguro de cualquier mecanismo giratorio. Gracias a estas alternativas tecnologicas modernas, es posible reducir considerablemente las oscilaciones, el sonido y la esfuerzo sobre los rodamientos, aumentando la tiempo de servicio de piezas importantes.
Tambien importante es el rol que tienen los sistemas de ajuste en la atencion al consumidor. El soporte especializado y el reparacion permanente empleando estos dispositivos posibilitan proporcionar servicios de alta nivel, aumentando la contento de los usuarios.
Para los duenos de empresas, la aporte en estaciones de balanceo y medidores puede ser importante para mejorar la eficiencia y rendimiento de sus aparatos. Esto es principalmente importante para los empresarios que administran modestas y intermedias emprendimientos, donde cada elemento vale.
Asimismo, los equipos de balanceo tienen una extensa uso en el ambito de la proteccion y el monitoreo de excelencia. Permiten localizar posibles errores, previniendo arreglos caras y danos a los equipos. Tambien, los datos recopilados de estos dispositivos pueden usarse para optimizar procesos y potenciar la exposicion en motores de exploracion.
Las zonas de utilizacion de los sistemas de calibracion cubren variadas ramas, desde la produccion de transporte personal hasta el monitoreo ecologico. No influye si se trata de grandes producciones industriales o reducidos locales domesticos, los equipos de balanceo son necesarios para asegurar un operacion eficiente y sin presencia de paradas.
