The Nadeș gas field is a natural gas field located in Nadeș in Mureș County, Romania. Discovered in 1915, it was developed by Romgaz, beginning production of natural gas and condensates in 1930. By 2010 the total proven reserves of the Nadeș gas field were around 355e9ft3, with a production rate of around 17.5e6ft3/d.[1]
According to data provided by the Romanian, the Nadeș gas field is the 9th largest in Romania,[2] while the Nadeș - Prod - Seleuș complex ranks 3rd, with a gas production of 313.3e9m3 in 2022.[3]
The gas deposits in Romania have a very long history of exploitation, almost unique at the level of Europe and among the few such old fields that are still in production in the world.[4] A quarter of Romania's natural gas reserves (100e9m3) are located in Western Moldavia, Muntenia, and the Black Sea, with the remaining 75% located near methane gas reserve sites in Transylvania.[5] A fifth of these sites are located in the Giurgeu-Brașov Depression and Sibiu County, with the remainder located in Mureș County at sites such as Luduș, Șincai, Bazna, and Zau de Câmpie.[6] [7]
The oldest deposits exploited by Romgaz are in Mureș County, where gas has been extracted since 1913.[4] The Nadeș gas field started being exploited in 1934.[8] there were four underground gas storage sites in Transylvania: at Târgu Mureș, Sărmășel, Nadeș-Prod, and Cetatea de Baltă.[9]
In 2013, Romgaz awarded 5.6 million leis ($1.7 million) to the local company Foraj Sonde for drilling and exploration works at the 302 Nadeș well.[10] In 2022, Romgaz allocated 25 million leis for preparatory work, drilling, and production tests at the exploitation wells 208, 209, and 210 at the Nadeș gas field.[2]
