UPDATE 1-BP to cut Azerbaijan oil output by 76,000 bpd in May-June -SOCAR

Thu, 30th Apr 2020 15:40

(Adds detail)

By Nailia Bagirova

BAKU, April 30 (Reuters) - BP will cut its oil
production in Azerbaijan by 76,000 barrels per day (bpd) in May
and June as part of the ex-Soviet country's efforts to curb
supply, state energy firm SOCAR said on Thursday.

SOCAR plans to cut production by 17,000 bpd over the same
period, while companies that produce onshore oil will cut by
3,000 bpd.

Azerbaijan, the third largest oil producer among ex-Soviet
countries after Russia and Kazakhstan, is a member of the OPEC+
group of countries which have agreed to cut supply.

For its part, Azerbaijan should cut output in May-June by
96,000 barrels per day (bpd), in July-December by 63,000 bpd,
and by 30,000 bpd between January and April 2022, SOCAR said in
a statement.

SOCAR's portion works out to cutting 17,000 bpd to reduce
output to 100,000 barrels in May-June, by 12,000 bpd to 105,000
barrels in July-December and by 6,000 bpd to 111,000 barrels
between January 2021 and April 2022, a source from oil industry
told Reuters.

SOCAR and foreign companies operating in Azerbaijan agreed
to divide production cuts between each other proportionally as
per a recommendation by the energy ministry, the source said.

BP leads an international consortium operating the
Azeri-Chirag-Guneshli (ACG) oilfields.

Its portion of the planned cuts works out to reducing
production by 76,000 bpd to 434,000 bpd in May-June, by 49,000
bpd to 461,000 barrels in July-December and by 23,000 bpd to
487,000 barrels between January 2021 and April 2022.

Azerbaijan expects to produce 30.7 million tonnes of oil or
226.3 million barrels in 2021, SOCAR said.

It had forecast 36.5 million tonnes of oil this year, but
its revised outlook in view of the planned cuts is not known
yet.
