Cairo – Mubasher: The Egyptian Nooros field’s output saw an increase after only ten months of its discovery, said Britain’s BP, a world oil and gas leading company.
The field is now producing around 305 million standard cubic feet of gas, 3,000 barrels of condensates and 1,500 barrels of NGL per day from four wells, the company added.
Hesham Mekawi, BP North Africa Regional President, commented: “We are pleased to announce the production of Nooros after only 10 months since its discovery. Nooros is another example of BP’s commitment to fast track the development of its resources in order to bring critical gas production to Egypt. Our plan is to maximise production through continued debottlenecking of the production facilities.”
The British company has a 25% stake in the concession of Abu Madi. Eni, while the remaining share is held by ENI’s subsidiary, IEOC.
The field is operated by Petrobel, a joint venture between IEOC and the State partner Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation (EGPC).
