Baku. Ali Ahmedov – APA-Economics. During January-September 2012, around 10.2 million cubic metres per day of ACG associated gas were delivered to SOCAR, said BP-Azerbaijan Company.
The information says that BP as operator of the ACG field continued to supply associated gas to the Sangachal terminal and from there into Azerigas’ national grid system for domestic use. Some of the associated gas produced from the Chirag platform was sent to the SOCAR compression station.
The rest of the associated gas from the ACG platforms was sent via in-field subsea gas pipelines to the compression and water injection platform (C&WP) on CA for re-injection to maintain pressure in the reservoir. Gas injection activities currently continue from 5 wells on CA.
For the full year it’s expected to deliver about 3 billion cubic metres (about 106 billion standard cubic feet) of associated gas to SOCAR.
