Thank you, Denis.

Does anyone have a definition of a "pilot hole" and its purpose?
Denis Kazakov Jul 12, 2017:
Понятно. Спрашивал, т.к. бывает еще pilot hole (пилотный ствол скважин), который могли пробурить на западную часть пласта.
Alexander Grabowski (asker) Jul 12, 2017:
+Контекст: Пласт ХХХ условно делится на три части – западную, восточную и южную. Согласно геологическим данным наиболее перспективными для добычи нефти являются западная и восточная части.
Пилотный участок был выбран на западной части пласта, в треугольнике между скважинами №№ 1, 2 и 3 (наибольшие нефтенасыщенные толщины, наилучшие свойства пласта (пористость, проницаемость, песчанистость, наименьшая глинистость), наличие глинистых перемычек согласно геофизическим данным).
El oso Jul 12, 2017:
+1 к Денис: нужно больше контекста.
Denis Kazakov Jul 12, 2017:
Участок чего? Т.е. что "пилотировали"?

exploratory section/exploratory-well area/the section for exploratory drilling (borehole)

DEFINITION of 'Exploratory Well'
A deep hole, in the earth, that a petroleum or natural gas company drills in the hopes of locating a new source of fossil fuel. An exploratory well represents a risk for the company drilling it, because it is not known, before investing in the well, how much oil or natural gas it might contain. The well may turn out to be a profitable new source of fossil fuel, or it may contain noncommercial quantities of fuel that aren't worth extracting; in the latter case, the well may be plugged and abandoned.

Peer comment(s):

neutral El oso : The original says:"участок был выбран на западной части ПЛАСТА", which means the "source of fossil fuel"(courtesy of your link), i.e. oil reservoir has already been LOCATED.Therefore this has nothing to do with exploration, 'cause there's no need for that
