Production figures June 2019

7/12/2019 Preliminary production figures for June 2019 show an average daily production of 1 409 000 barrels of oil, NGL and condensate, which is a decrease of 184 000 barrels per day compared to May.

Total gas sales were 9.4 billion Sm3 (GSm3), which is a decrease of 0.3 GSM3 from the previous month.

Average daily liquids production in June was: 1 067 000 barrels of oil, 315 000 barrels of NGL and 28 000 barrels of condensate. Oil production in June is 10 percent lower than the NPD’s forecast, and 3.4 percent below the forecast so far this year.

The main reasons that production in June was below forecast is technical problems and maintenance work on some fields.
