The planned maintenance programme (turnaround – TAR) on the Central Azeri platform, which began on 19 August and was scheduled for 11 days, has now been fully completed ahead of schedule, Report informs, citing BP Azerbaijan, the operator of the Azeri‑Chirag‑Deepwater Gunashli (ACG) field development project.
All of the programme scope has been delivered safely. Production is currently being ramped up to its pre‑programme level.
The programme scope included various projects, such as critical integrity and maintenance works, flare system upgrades, reliability improvement initiatives, and anomaly elimination activities.
The maintenance programme also involved activities supporting the delivery of the Central Azeri Gas Expansion (CAGE) project, designed to increase gas reinjection capacity on the platform to help maximise recovery from the existing wells.
These planned events are a necessary part of the long‑term reliability, integrity, and production performance and are regularly performed at all BP‑operated facilities in the region.
