BP discloses significant resource extension of Mad Dog field in Gulf of Mexico

摘要

Drilling results from a successful appraisal well in a previously untested northern segment of the Mad Dog field in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico confirmed a significant resource extension for the Mad Dog complex, which includes the existing field, in production since 2005, and appraisal drilling of the Mad Dog South field in 2008 and 2009, unit operator BP said. Pending confirmation through future appraisal drilling, the total hydrocarbons initially in place in the field complex are now estimated to be up to 4 Bboe, the company added.
