CNOOC and Canadian partner Husky Energy have commenced production from the BD field offshore Indonesia, with gas from the field to meet domestic industrial demand, and the condensate to be exported.
The start of production comes 30 years after the field was discovered, and 22 years after the initial development plan was approved by Indonesia’s government. The field was set to supply an independent power plant under the original development plan, however the field’s development was put on hold as the power plant failed to materialise.
