BAKU, Azerbaijan, Feb.9. During 2022, Azeri-Chirag-Gunashli (ACG) delivered an average of around 7 million cubic metres per day of ACG associated gas to the state of Azerbaijan (2.6 billion cubic metres in total), primarily at the Sangachal terminal but also to SOCAR’s Oil Rocks facility, as compared to 3 billion cubic metres in 2021, Trend reports via bp.

The remainder of the associated gas produced was re-injected for reservoir pressure maintenance.

As such, the volume of associated gas deliveries dropped by 13.3 percent year-on-year.

During the year, ACG continued to safely and reliably deliver stable production.
