Vietnam Gets First Gas, More To Follow

摘要

State Petro Vietnam has earmarked Nov. 26 as the start-up date for commercial production of gas from the big BP-operated Nam Con Son project. It's the beginning of gas use in Vietnan, and much more is likely to follow. BP is pushing ahead with appraisal drilling in the adjacent Hai Thach field, financing has been arranged for a second gas-fired power plant, and other companies are proving up significant gas deposits in the country's increasingly vital gas sector, as well.
