Persephone項目計劃2017年投產

Australian energy company Woodside is working to bring its Persephone gas project offshore Australia on stream next year. According to the company’s third quarter report, Woodside is sticking to its recently announced plan to bring the field online in the second half of 2017. To remind, the original plan had been to start Persephone gas production in early 2018, but this has been revised as Woodside has improved efficiency at the project. In its third quarter report, Woodside said that the company began reservoir drilling and completion activities at the Persephone field. This is ahead of the subsea installation campaign scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of 2016.

The A$1.2 billion ($916 million) Persephone Project, approved in 2014, consists of two wells tied into a subsea production manifold with production fluids transported to the existing North Rankin Complex (NRC), part of the large North West Shelf project.
