Nexen's Buzzard Oil Field Running Under Capacity

摘要

(Reuters) - Nexen Inc.'s 200,000 bbl a day Buzzard oil field in the North Sea is operating below capacity, but the constraint is not major and should end soon, a company spokesman said Tuesday.The drop in output at the huge field is due to limitations on a third-party pipeline moving associated natural gas, Nexen's Michael Harris said.Harris declined to give the specific volume that has been cut but said, "It's not enough to get too excited about." Production should be back up to normal rates "any day now," he said.
