Petroleum found in Adana Çukurova
Oil was found as a result of 2 years of work in the "Çukurova 1 and Çukurova 2" research field affiliated to the Turkish Petroleum Corporation (TPAO) in the Soysalı District of the Ceyhan district of Adana.
While it was learned that the oil was of high quality as a result of the researches, the studies in the field were expanded.
Other wells have been drilled
While the works continued at full speed in the areas with oil wells and on the roads, it was seen that the 'Mud-Pit' pool was also established.
Foreign researchers closed by saying "no oil"
On the other hand, it was learned that in the 1960s, foreign companies came and conducted research in the field and their wells were covered by saying, "There is no oil here."
After the 1998 Ceyhan Earthquake, it was claimed that research was carried out in the field and this time it was descended to a depth of 1,500 meters, and the well was closed by saying, "There is no oil here".
There is also high quality oil
In the last 2 years, it was learned that in the search carried out by the Turkish Petroleum Corporation in the region, oil was found at 1,350 meters.
It was learned that the oil coming out of the 'Çukurova 1' research field was of 'high' quality, and other wells were drilled on top of that.
Villagers are happy
It was seen that the work continued in the areas that İhlas News Agency viewed with a drone.
Isa Sezgin, 66, who has lived in the village since she was born, said, “While corn was being irrigated, in 1998, a black substance appeared in the water and it was seen that it spoiled the corn. Then the owner of the field takes the substance and it turns out to be oil. Now yield is obtained from 2 wells. 2-3 tankers of oil go from here daily. It is a very positive thing for this country. It would be beneficial for oil to come out of here.” he said.
“There is definitely oil here”
Explaining that he learned that 14 wells will be drilled in the village, Sezgin said, “The materials are brought here by trucks. It means something big is coming. In 1967, when I was a child, foreigners came here and opened a 20-30 meter well and said, "There is nothing here," and left. But in the end, our people found this oil. Surely there is oil here. The foreigner won't make you any money here. Here, Turkey's development means withdrawal of money holders. Whenever you are in need, a foreigner comes here and earns money with his money. You will remain half hungry and half full.” used the phrases.
The minister announced
On the other hand, the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Fatih Dönmez, recently made a statement to a newspaper saying, "We will announce the oil discovery in Adana soon."
In addition, last April, an oil exploration license was granted to TPAO for a period of 5 years for the field with an area of 15,398 hectares in Adana.
