11998, the test of the Carat 2 well achieved a major breakthrough in the mid-way test. It was sprayed with an 11mm oil nozzle to spray for production. The flame was more than 20 meters high, the wellhead pressure was 60 megapas, and the maximum daily output was natural gas 4.16 million cubic meters. marked the emergence of the Cara2 gas field and directly promoted the construction of the West-East Gas Pipeline Project.
carat 2 wells achieved a major breakthrough, and powerful natural gas flow whistled out, reflecting the mountains red. At the time, Deputy General Manager of China National Petroleum Corporation and Commander of Tarim Petroleum Exploration and Development Command and Secretary of the Party Working Committee of Qiu Zhongjian passionately wrote a poem: "The rainbow roared in the sky, and carats flew to the sky. When I searched for ten years, the west gas sent the spring breeze to the east." At the test site, Qiu Zhongjian said to the employees of Party A and B participating in the construction: "The carat 2 gas field is a big scene that we have been searching for for ten years. With the carat 2 gas field, we will have to drive the west gas and the east gas field, and the big natural gas scene has come out."
However, the success of the carat 2 well was not smooth. In 1995, the oil field had three exploration wells, Dongqiu 5, Kesan 1 and Kala 1, which had been drilled in the mountainous areas of Kuqa , and suffered consecutive failures, casting a thick layer of haze for the updraft of Kala 2. Faced with underestimation of exploration, the older generation of oil workers turned pressure into motivation, showed the spirit of "being willing to sacrifice one's life and daring to pull the emperor off". Through rounds of research and discussion, we carefully summarized the differences between the structure of Carat 1 and Carat 2, and implemented the high point of the structure of Carat 2. Finally, the drilling of three exploration wells, Carat 2, Carat 3 and Inan 2 were approved at the well position demonstration meeting in mid-September 1996.
