Vietsovpetro exploits 500 million cubic metres of gas at Thien Ung field
Hanoi (VNA) - The Russia-Vietnam oil and gas joint venture
(Vietsovpetro) has pumped up 500 million cubic metres of gas from Thien Ung field,
which has been in operation since late 2016.
The
Thien Ung field development project, 270 km southeast of Vung Tau city, is a
component project under the gas development plan of the Vietnam Oil and Gas
Group (PetroVietnam).
As
planned, exploited products from Thien Ung will be brought offshore via the Nam
Con Son 2 pipeline - Phase 2.
Vietsovpetro
will drill new fields to provide recipients with an estimated gas output of up
to 2 million cubic metres per day.
The
operation of the BK-TNG rig at the Thien Ung field aims to create
infrastructure connectivity and promote the exploration and exploitation of
gas-condensate fields in the Nam Con Son basin area and the southern
continental shelf of Vietnam, as well as contribute to ensuring national energy
security and asserting national sovereignty over seas and islands./.
