Baku, August 24 (AZERTAC). During the first half bp-Azerbaijan delivered around 10.5 million cubic metres per day of ACG associated gas to SOCAR. In total the company delivered about 1.9 billion cubic metres of associated gas to SOCAR during the first half of 2011. Its plan for the full year is to deliver 2.3 billion cubic of associated gas to SOCAR.

During the first half of 2011 BP as operator of the ACG field continued to supply associated gas via the 28” gas subsea pipeline from three platforms (CA, WA and EA) to the Sangachal terminal and from there into Azerigas’ national grid system for domestic use. Some of the associated gas produced from the Chirag platform was sent to the SOCAR compression station at the Oil Rocks via the existing 16” subsea gas pipeline.

The rest of the associated gas from the ACG platforms was sent via in-field subsea gas pipelines to the compression and water injection platform (C&WP) on CA for re-injection to maintain pressure in the reservoir. Gas injection activities currently continue from five wells on CA.
