China's state-run offshore oil and gas explorer and producer CNOOC said Monday it had started production from its Luda 6-2 oil field ahead of schedule.
Luda 6-2 oilfield is located in Liaodong Bay of Bohai Sea, with an average water depth of about 30 meters.
"In addition to fully utilizing the existing processing facilities of Suizhong 36-1 oilfield, the project has built a new central platform," CNOOC said.
A total of 38 development wells are planned, including 29 production wells, 8 water injection wells and 1 development and appraisal well.
The project is expected to reach its peak production of approximately 10,000 barrels of crude oil per day in 2022.
