BP expects production from Azerbaijani Shah Deniz field to continue at high level in 2016, BP’s Regional President for Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey, Gordon Birrell told in an interview to Natural Gas Europe.

The field has been producing at the Stage 1 plateau level over the past few years including 2015 in which we produced around 10bn m3 of gas and 2.3 million tonnes of condensate.

“Shah Deniz continues its good production delivery. In 2015, the field provided reliable deliveries of gas to markets in Azerbaijan, Georgia, the BTC [Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan] Company and Turkey,” Birrell said.
