Shell and Petronas Readying for Burullus Phase 9B

Thursday, July 20, 2017

 Shell and Petronas are expected to start work on Phase 9B of the Burullus field during Q4. The field is planned to start producing in Phase 9B during H2 2018, with production capacity ranging between 350-400 Mmcf/d of gas.

Phase 9B was originally planned to start production in 2017, but it was delayed until Egypt reaches an agreement with the foreign partners, and work in the phase stopped in March 2016.

The field is managed by state-owned Rashid Petroleum (Rashpetco), which holds a 50% stake, while Shell and Petronas each hold 25%.
