Early production from its Erawin field has exceed 100,000 barrels – only 5 weeks from the launch of production, Zallaf Oil and Gas announced on Monday. Zallaf is a wholly owned subsidiary of the state National Oil Corporation.
It will be recalled that it was only in March that Zallaf announced that it had officially started pumping crude oil operations within the alternative plan for early production from its Erawin oil field, at a rate of 3,000 barrels per day.
Transporting oil by tanker
Zallaf said it is one of the first companies to adopt a plan for transporting crude oil by tankers at a rate of 12 trips per day from the production tanks in the Erawin field to the surface treatment unit in the Sharara field of the Akakus Oil Operations Company.
It reported that the production rates of the Erawin field will reach more than 16,000 barrels per day when all wells and the pipeline linking Erawin and Sharara are ready.
This step comes in response to the National Oil Corporation’s policy of reaching production rates of approximately 2 million barrels per day ‘‘soon’’, it had added.
