Solan油田将增产至1.4万桶油/天

First oil from the Solan field was achieved on April 12. Premier subsequently carried out a planned production shut down focused on the final commissioning of the electrical systems, the control and shut down systems and the water injection plant, taking advantage of the availability of the flotel, the company explained on Tuesday. The flotel has since departed the field and production from the Solan field restarted on June 22.

The field, which is currently producing at 11 kbopd, is ramping up to 14 kbopd from the first production well with water injection providing reservoir support. The drilling activities on the second production well (P2Y) have been completed. A DSV is scheduled to tie P2Y into production later this month after which production from the field will build up to an anticipated plateau rate of 20-25 kboepd, Premier said.

The company’s production averaged 61.0 kboepd for the first six months of the year with a record rate of over 80 kboepd achieved post period end. The newly acquired E.ON assets have continued to perform well and the summer maintenance program has been largely completed. With Solan ramping up, Premier continues to expect full year production to be at or above the upper end of its guidance of 65-70 kboepd.
