Libya’s NOC reported that Mellitah Oil & Gas (MOG) has made “significant gains” at the Abu-Attifel oilfield. These gains come despite the security issues and logistical constraints the company faces at the oilfield.
MOG completed operating tests for a TC5 Solar Gas Turbine on October 13. This equipment is part of an impactful low-pressure flare project increasing low-pressure well gas production which then transfers to a LNG plant. The project has succeeded in increasing condensate quantities by 2,000 bpd to 9,500 bpd and reduced the proportion of ‘off-gas’ flaring to zero.
The National Drilling and Well Maintenance Company, owned by NOC, also helped MOG complete the maintenance of well No 56, restoring it to the production of 4,800 bpd of oil and approximately 9 Mmcf/d. The maintenance of well No A49 is expected to complete before the end of the year, thereby raising production by a further 1,000 bpd.
