Baku. Agshin Rafigoglu – APA-Economics. During the first half, BP as operator of the ACG field continued to deliver associated gas from the DWG platform via the 28” gas subsea pipeline directly to the Sangachal terminal and from there into Azerigas’ national grid system for domestic use, BP-Azerbaijan told APA-Economics.

During the first half, we delivered around 6.7 million cubic metres (236 million standard cubic feet) per day of ACG associated gas to SOCAR (1.21 billion cubic metres or 42.7 billion cubic feet in total). This is almost equal to what we are planning to deliver for the full year - 1.24 billion cubic metres or about 44 billion standard cubic feet.

Note that, ACG participating interests are: BP (operator – 35.78%), Chevron (11.27%), SOCAR (11.65%), INPEX (10.96%), Statoil (8.56%), ExxonMobil (8%), TPAO (6.75%), ITOCHU (4.3%), ONGC Videsh Limited (OVL) (2.72%).
