Italy’s Tempa Rossa oil project ramp-up delayed by cOVID-19

摘要

Rome-Total’s long-delayed Tempa Rossa heavy oil development in southern Italy has hit a fresh setback after COVID-19 lockdown measures halted operations to ramp up output to plateau levels of 50,000 b/d by June, according to local trade union officials. The oil field, an onshore concession in the Basilicata region, began producing at the end of 2019 and is currently flowing at just over 20,000 b/d, one of the officials said.
