Second well test of Dambořice 9
The last drilling here was in the summer of 2023. While the frogs were croaking then, now, at the end of winter, there are plenty of hares and deer roaming the surrounding fields. And in the evenings, beavers are regularly seen cupitating in the adjacent Burnt Creek.
And why is it being drilled again in the same place? Simply because the original project did not turn out positively, but provided very promising information.
The Dambořice 9 prospect is analogous to the Borkovany deposit in the deeper part of the palaeogene fill of the Nesvačil trench. Prospective resources (expected reserve size) here are 330 million cubic meters of gas.

The bismuth plug worked. The unique method will also be used on gas storage facilities
In June, colleagues used a unique method at the Krumvíř 3 well - for the first time in the history of MND, a thermal isolation method using a bismuth-tin alloy was applied. And as it turned out, it not only works, but has the potential to solve a whole range of technical challenges. The first deployment took place in challenging conditions that conventional methods would have found difficult to handle - or even at all.
How a dynamic model created in Hodonin helps to produce more gas in Ukraine
The following lines provide an excellent example of how the cooperation between the Czech and Ukrainian parts of MND works. The bearing engineer Milan Pagáč is creating a dynamic model of the Tynivska deposit, where MND Ukraine is successfully mining and continuously increasing production. At the beginning of June this year it was more than 500 thousand cubic meters per day.
From rig to management: the success story of Georg Buhrtz and MND's expansion in Germany
MND Germany GmbH has established itself as a respected drilling contractor in the German market over the past few years. Thanks to its emphasis on quality, safety and flexibility, MND Germany has managed to establish a strong position amongst its competitors and is currently successfully completing a one-year drilling campaign for one of the country's largest operators, Harbour Energy, with 40 rigs, building on the activities of the former Wintershall Dea.
