Total gas sales were 7.9 billion Sm3 (GSm3), which is a decrease of 0.8 GSm3 from the previous month.

Average daily liquids production in June was: 1 674 000 barrels of oil, 196 000 barrels of NGL and 12 000 barrels of condensate.

Oil production in June is 3.6 percent lower than the NPD’s forecast, and 0.4 percent higher than 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.
