South Pars Phase 11 to Start Production Soon

The development of the giant South Pars Gas Field’s Phase 11 is underway and the phase will soon become operational, managing director of the National Iranian Oil Company said.
“The drilling of the last four wells in the phase is in the final stages and after the project’s subsea pipe-laying operations are completed, gas extraction will begin in the near future,” the Oil Ministry’s news agency Shana also quoted Mohsen Khojastehmehr as saying.
Phase 11 is the only one among the 24 phases of the joint field in the Persian Gulf, which has not been developed yet. Iran shares the field with Qatar.
The Phase 11 development project included the construction and installation of the jackets and topsides of the phase, drilling 12 wells and laying 115-km-long 32-inch pipelines to transfer mono-ethylene glycol and liquefied natural gas to onshore plants for processing.
