The load out operation of Platform 11B jacket of the massive South Pars gas field has begun in a step to develop the long-sought project.
The 2,120-ton structure is 80.5 meters high and is planned to be installed in the 11B area of South Pars, 135 km off Assaluyeh coast.
The jacket has 15 26-inch diameter conductor guides.
If the weather remains stable, we will start drilling wells in the South Pars Phase 11 development plan in June, the CEO of Petropars Group, Hamidreza Masoudi, told about the timing of the drilling of wells in phase 11 of the South Pars joint field.
Petropars is developing the project alone after its partners, Total and CNPCI, pulled out of the plan due to the US sanctions.
