Ozoil made it' first Applicaiton Oil Exploration block to do (PİGM) Turkey General Directorate Petroleum Affairs in 2010 size with 60.000 hectares and located in the heart of Adana Basin respectively this field license granted to some international oil company before
it was a two applicant for this block one is TPIC state oil company subsidairy of TPAO and Ozoil pravite company but Ozoil been selected by PİGM to granted block licenced in 25th of May 2011 the block licence number was 4837 issued for a five year Exploration Period time and published in Official Newspaper of Turkey
moreover in 2000 state oil company TPAO drilled soysallı-1 well at depth of 1891 m. dry well in this field before
previously some international oil company operate in this field before such as in 1975-1980 Shell Company, 1980-1990 Weeks Oil company from USA 1990-1995 Aladdin Middle East company from USA 1995-2000 Perenco 2000-2005 TPAO and 2005 -2010 TPIC Subsidiary of TPOA
the Block 4837 is located at the south of Turkey distance to Adana city is aprox. 45 km distance to Mediterranean Sea 50 km distance crude oil tank terminal 60 km distance to Baku Ceyhan oil terminal 50 km distance to Ceyhan Town 22 km
the lithology in the Basin's units start with Pliocene young formations Continue with Miocene units the Basin has got highly Petroleum Potential with high rich source of rocks
Ozoil started its operation in this field in 2011 after carefully studying seismic surveys and doing important other Geophysics works and Ozoil Company decided to drill Ozoil-1 well in 2015 at the south side of the Block at a depth of 1151 m. Ozoil discovered and tested 21,4 API grade oil at the depth of 575 m. and 1100 meters the pay zone interwall a Jura / Cretaceous Limestone this historical discovery was a second discovery after Bulgur mountains in Adana Basin after MEM Mediterranean Exploration Mobile company did in 1960
Ozoil company drilled Ozoil-1 well et depth of 1151 m. accrued well log from Schlumberger company runned casings and done cementing operation after processing the log data dedicated to perforate 550 m and 575 m and 610 m interwall
but with the lack of finance couldn't tested well with proper equipment tested well with air compressor and collected oil in mud tanks after analysing result with a 21,4 API gravity sweet oil and than company were urgently looked for finance but couldn't able to get it to complete the well and brought the well to the production the last change company sees decide to drill geothermal well for geothermal company in Sakaray city for the makes some money but this Geothermal company cheated Ozoil not paid it's drilling services money than Ozoil became very bad position couldn't able to return the licence after 5 years exploration period time is endup and unfortunately order the new general directorate of PİGM drop the our license so the company lost all is effort and investment due to limit of finance
after the state oil company TPAO took the license with ready well with ready oil they took well to production Ozoil-1 well immediately start with 250 bbl/pd TPAO drilled additionaly 7 more well currently producing in total 2500 bbl/pd
by the way TPAO Anounced counted here 30 million bbl producable reservoir 21,4 API Oil in pleaced later TPAO changed the well name and field name to Çukurova-1 well name and field name to do Çukurova oil field
they have to because furthermore in 2000 before Ozoil they drilled Sosysallı-1 dry well unsuccesefuly in this field which is 2 km distance to Ozoil-1 well so it's not good for their reputation such a small Ozoil company discovered oil instead of very big oil company TPAO with a vast capital and Engineer army which TPAO working 55 years in this Adana basin drilled more than 50 dry wells
