BAKU, Azerbaijan, Oct. 30
By Elnur Baghishov – Trend:
The production capacity of the Rag Sefid 1 desalination unit of Iran's Aghajari Oil and Gas Production Company (AOGPC) has reached 4,500 barrels daily, an official of the company Mohammad Reza Goudarzi, Trend reports citing the AOGPC’s website.
The official noted that this increase was reached as a result of certain operations and the separation of two pipelines from the unit.
“During the operation, the pipelines of wells No. 20 and No. 24, where crude oil was extracted, were separated from the desalination unit,” he added.
As reported, Iran's Aghajari Oil & Gas Production Company is a subsidiary of the National Iranian South Oil Company (NISOC). The company has 8 oil fields, including Aghajari, Karanj, Paranj, Parsi, Ramshir, Rag Sefid, Pazanan, and Marun.
About 615,000 barrels of light and heavy crude oil are extracted daily from 8 fields. The company supplies fuel to domestic refineries and exports the remaining amount.
In addition, it supplies 30 percent of Bandar Imam Petrochemical Company's liquefied natural gas needs. The company also produces 11,000 barrels of naphtha per day.
