MILAN -- Output from Egypt’s Nooros field has reached 128,000 boed (700 MMcfgd) just 13 months after its discovery, Eni said in a statement announcing the production landmark.
The field is currently producing from seven wells; however, with the drilling of additional wells, the field is expected to reach its maximum production capacity of about 160,000 boed in the spring of 2017.
"This record-setting production represents an important milestone achieved just 13 months after the discovery and ahead of schedule thanks to the success of the last exploration wells drilled in the area of Nidoco and the drilling of new development wells," Eni said in a statement.
Nooros field, in the Nile Delta offshore, was discovered in July 2015 and brought on-stream that September.
