Last month, CNOOC began production at its Enping 24-2 oilfield, also in the Pearl River Mouth basin. Enping is expected to reach 40,000b/d at peak production in 2017. The main production facilities include one drilling and production platform, one floating production storage and offloading unit and 17 producing wells. Currently, there are two wells producing approximately 8000b/d.
