Liuhua 29-1 gas field begins production

The Liuhua 29-1 gas field, which recently completed commissioning, is located in the eastern South China Sea, 86 km northeast of Liwan 3-1 gas field, with water depth of about 640 to 785 m. A new subsea wellhead has been built, with 7 development wells planned in total. The gas field will fully utilise the existing production facilities of Liuhua 34-2 gas field and Liwan 3-1 gas field. It is expected to reach a peak production of approximately 62 million ft³/d of natural gas in 2022.

CNOOC has a 25% working interest in the Liuhua 29-1 gas field and acts as the operator in shallow water, while Husky Oil China holds the remaining 75% working interest and acts as the operator in deep water.
