A Russian-based gas production firm has experienced increased activity during the first quarter.
Rosneft’s gas production increased by 19.7% compared to the same period last year and amounted to 15.8 BCM.
Factors contributing the growth include an increase of use of produced gas, an organic increase in production from existing production facilities, as well as commissioning of new fields such as Northern Chayvo at the Sakhalin island.
The company has said it is working to improve the utilization of associated petroleum gas, which reached 87% in the first quarter of 2015 compared with 81% in 2014.
This year it hopes to achieve an APG utilization level of 95%.
